OEM Rear Springs

rstoughy · 05-02-2011, 05:43 PM

Broke the car out of winter hibernation today so was swapping out wheels and noticed the O/S rear spring pig tail was broken.

Anyone have a spare one sitting or even better a pair they are looking to sell?

Needed pretty quick as i've got Snetterton at the end of the month.

Cheers,
