i don't think it is cavmad he lives the other side of reading.

cavmad, do you still have that spoiler still if not then don't worry just wondering?

Mulley, the tsr exhaust was made in house by tsr and apperantly it was on thier TD race car. but after a while they decided to molley coddle it as it was getting tired and this chap that i bought the exhaust from used the car for a while but because the spheres needed doing he broke it up argh!!
i believe tsr no longer trade anymore which is a shame. the exhaust is one piece apart from the down pipe bit which is seperate.

Hi guys, no not me as Marty has now revealed the lucky buyer. :D Was looking to add a TZD but the initial plans for that went awry. :(

well its the bilsters spoiler, so sort a price out with him, and if you get a price sorted out reasonably quickly then i can probably have the damn thing dragged kicking and screaming south to the Bristol ish area, quciker and cheaper than coming to liverpool!
