Excellent thanks very much for that

As has already been said i too love these threads with complete full on suspension restorations. Bilthamber products are superb in my opinion so a good recommendation there. Keep the pics coming - all very enjoyable.

Out of interest what finish was applied to the suspension subframes and arms?

I need a bit of help, Nick, the guy doing the work for me has told me i need new steering arms Part Numbers: 811 419 802K & 894 419 802A Im searching around on the net and it seems i can only find a Lemforder or Febi equivalent however it shows that both are the same side, can anyone confirm if these two arem are handed or are both sides identical. Even though they have different part numbers.

A quick response from you guys would really be appreciated.

If anyone knows pert numbers for cross ref to any other manufacturer, that would be great.

No, they are not the same.
One has a bend for the downpipe, at least on LHD cars.

Don't have any other manufacturers part no, sorry.

[EDIT]
I did a search on Carparts-pros.com and as you can see, these are different.

Looking very fresh! The rear half-moon dust shields....are they new?? I'm assuming yes?

I managed to get a full set from Germany, the rears were very good secondhand and the fronts are brand new, sadly they, once again are unique to the RS2, nothing else uses them.

Ok cheers.
