DC2 folks wouldnt fit my Type S.
I bought them, rust proofed them and painted them in black chassis paint. Came to fit them and the lower parts wont fit over the suspension rod and bushing. It just 1-2mm to narrow.
They are 5mm shorter and a tab bit heavier.

If you want them let me know. Im sure with some hammering they will fit but i put my original folks back on.

oh and i am looking for a drivers rear light one that has the side light in as the passenger one has it but the driver doesnt. :roll:
I need to refurb the wheels as well but i also need to refurb my SA3r's so i can take these off and do them.
Next step will be front brakes and polybushed suspension arms. 8-)
