I like the number plate where it is but would be concerned that it might block and reduce the air taken in to the radiator/cooler.

Just keeping you up to date. Sorry my car is filthy I'm cleaning it in a few mins ha.
Basically the council refused my claim so I thought f*ck it and got the 3dsm 0.05s. I know my car needs to go lower but that will have to wait. Will get some better shots once the weather clears and the car is clean.


On the way home from getting them


Bye bye donut wheel (2000 miles on that fooking thing)







Jut happy to have four that match :)

Let me know what you think :) also if anybody has a pescara try would be willing to sell please let me know.

....Out of curiosity and interest, on what grounds did the council refuse your claim? That pothole looks pretty deep and vertical on one side.

About your number plate: Are you not concerned about how it blocks air in through the open grill?

They said as no one had reported it before I reported it and claimed against it it's not there concern.

And yep I am but it seems ok, it has been like that for a while. I have some suckers for it but I don't get round to swapping them :)

....That's both an outrageous and pathetic excuse!

It doesn't even make sense. The implication is that whoever was the first to report it and want to claim, was told that they couldn't because they were the first!  :stupid:

You've now moved on of course but if it was me, I would be going to Citizens Advice Bureau with the photographic evidence and bills proving the cost. I would also be contacting the local press.
