Just a thought. Does it actually need to have the four hole star shape? Why can't you just align the two halves and use two spacers and two bolts? Am i missing something?

Good stuff chaps, I'll call the waterjet cutters tomorrow and see when they will be able to make the guibos, shouldn't take too long.

Once confirmed with them, I will take payment and then place the order.

Right, the waterjet cutters should be able to do the guibos within 3 working days of me ordering so if everyone pays promptly we can have a really quick turn around on this.

I can take Paypal, bank transfer, cheque, cash via recorded delivery or postal order. My paypal address is theosprog@hotmail.com - please PM me if you wish to pay via an alternative method and I will forward the appropriate details.

Thanks alot,

Theo

318is turbo is on the verge of paying, I think?? Not heard from the other two. I'll probably order them tomorrow and sell the spares seperately.

No, they're not included. You just need four suitable length M8 bolts, four washers and four locking nuts.

I collected these from the waterjet cutters this evening, fantastic turn around by them.

I will post them out after the bank holiday weekend.

I have a spare available if there's someone wanting one.

Recently fitted one of these and have to say, makes the steering incredibly sharp, the only play I have now is in the rubber on the tyres.

Doesn't introduce much vibration either - have to say, not sure why BMW did the rubber coupling in the first place.

Theo, I saw this thread about two weeks ago and have been meaning to get on the list. Arrrrrggghh!!!!

Obviously too late on this now but if you could stick me down for the next run or should anyone decide they don't need theirs could you let me know. I'm absolutely ready for one asap...

Regards,

James.
