Not too sure where i would post this otherwise.

Anyway, the 318 is in need of some loving.

Parts to be replaced some upcomming weekend:
Front Swaybar links
Electric fan [$40 for a new shroud or 35 shipped for an electric]
Spring hats to drop the front end a little more and ruin my oil pan a little quicker
New Roundels for the 15" baskets
And its time to replace the clutch! woo wee

Sooooo soon!! I finally heard the word, 4 17x7.5 Hyperblack Kopis, need some love, but under 300 bucks for the set :D

I hear the electric fan mod. Looking into that soon!

The front spring cups...I just cannot justify $165 on some stamped metal. Yes yes dies cost $$$, but they pay off quickly too.

I would not be able to justify that much money on spring hats either.

That being said; $59

Hey Kidney Boy,

I know this is an old thread, but how did you go with these cups?

Has anyone else used them?

I want to use them but i was concerned with the amount that they said the car comes down.

TIA

Here's what someone had to say about the hats, LINK (http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showpost.php?p=740526&postcount=32)

They look the same as the ones BMP used to sell.

If what is said in the link is correct, then that is exactly what I want.

I can't come down much more than 1/2" without suffering on the drivability front.

Considering the Bekkers ones are $60 and the BMP ones were $159 I would be inclined to go the bekkers option if all I have to do is trim them up a little.
