They are in place.  :wink:

We did an adjustment as well. As the steering wasn't centered
and I'd like to have more toe in we did this by ourselves in two
very small steps (marked positions). Already just had very little
toe in (a few minutes).

Now:  steering wheel centered, improoved steering feel and much
better turn in !!  :driver:

Will probably verify the toe in soon though.

I still have to do it myself (string method) or let it have done in the shop.

Will probably verify the toe in soon though.


If I'd have to bet:   +15'   :wink:

Oh... and I have just noticed... is your front valance painted?
If it is why didn't you paint the side skirts and the rear valance as well?  :drinking:

My favourites as well, Mike !!

Early August sounds good.  :wink:

Splitter ist painted (cos it needs to be painted), side skirts are still matt black.
I like them this way.
