That's some increase. Noticed is have put their prices up too.

 

[broster@JAM-Sport]

basically everything that comes from somewhere with the euro is going to have shocking increases!

the fiesta st b12 spring and inverted damper kit has gone from £558 to £865, thats alot of money for springs and dampers regardless of how good they are!

Yep its happening on every component coming over from Europe. Clio Cup spares prices are going up next, CATCams have increase circa 120quid on Retail.

I'm trying not to think that I ought to stick £2K into bits for my Clio now to avoid the increases ;-)

ouch, didn't realise bilstein were som expensive. Thats some increase. How are they twice as expensive as H&Rs.

 

[broster@JAM-Sport]

they used to be cheaper, wouldnt be suprised if h&R follow suit and do another increase.

 

[Jonny1*2]

are they really that good? Thought LEDA were the dogz?

 

[Icarus]

LEDA most definately aren't the dogs. In fact LEDA aren't even LEDA anymore.

People shout about leda because its more of a household name compared to proflex etc...

Bilstein are great bits of kit in my opinion, fantastic build quality never had a problem with them in the 4 years iv been working here.
