    The RS2 is the same as the S2 Avant, 12mm.
    An alternative is the ones from AK Motorsport which are what I went for. Nice fit and a bit cheaper.

      Hi Dave how are you the car is in the body shop and I will not get it back until the end of August. Hows the Novelle coming along I hope it has been a stress free experience. I recently bought a load of bits of of AKM and I will go buy the subframe bushes from them thanks for the advice.

      Regards

        I'm good thanks. Had some fun and games with my Nothelle but getting there now. What body shop are you using and how much do they charge for a full glass out respray? That's the bit I'm struggling with here.

          I was lucky enough to find a chap who specialises in sprayiing aluminium bodied hand built d type jags, it took a lot of convincing for him to take on my car and I have got to say he is good I think he is OCD. Anyway I am paying 6k for a full screen out respray, all panels and trim removed preped and sprayed. So far I had to replace the rear door because the prior owner installed a 3rd brake light and drilled a load of holes in the original door, and 2 new front wings but I have been fortunate enough to salvage lots of good parts from the doner car but I am still having a problem sourcing a good pair of rear plastic inner arches. If you want his details let me know.

            Its good you have found someone who takes pride in their work. A bit far for me to come but useful to know the going rate.
            I'm pretty sure all B4 Avant rear inner arches are the same. I will keep a lookout for you.
