The only downside is that they look like something foliatec would sell...Not too fussed about the security side of it. I'm going to keep the alarm sensor for my bonnet.

They are way better than the ripspeed looking ones, but a b***h to fit as I was told by the lad who fitted them lol as it's thru a double skin part of the bonnet. Yep I've also got my alarm sensor still all wired up also. I disagree Paul I think they look sleek and serve a purpose that I need them to do so thumbs up all round form me

Unless it's a dedicated track car that isn't really road legal you will always want aerocatchers. Last thing you need is some chav opening your bonnet to try and rob an air filter

I could instantly feel the difference between a 21mm and 22mm anti roll bar. I wonder if these roll bars are made of the same material as the Peugeot bars.

I'm sure I'll feel the difference as I only have the standard gti one in ATM 20mm? so all is good, so I've had my 21mm torsion bars put in ill fit the 24mm arb next week as im ordering a new end plate and still on bilstern rear shox. So should be spot on hopefully
