Hi,

Just had the Elite at the garage for steering issues and he fitted new wishbones and droplinks without letting me know, so now have a new set of wishbones and droplinks for sale as I had already bought some to go on it, typical >:(

Well its my mates garage and I usually just give him the go ahead to do any work, he always phones though just to confirm parts and total price as he knows I can often get parts cheaper, he didnt think it was a problem so went ahead. When I told him I already had the parts he nearly died, problem is he cant take the ones off and return them as he binned all the boxes and bags, so need to try and shift these ones to pay for the ones he bought :-/

Well not much I can do about it, he's gave me £80 quid of his labour so he's making nothing on it, all im paying for is parts pretty much, pain in the arse, guess im keeping it now ::)
