Gents, Ladies ....

I received my parts from our Western cousins, the turbo has arrived, as has the manifold, down pipe, 1 feed and bolts. Along with my radiator ..


However it appears to have been ass raped in transit.

I'm sure it will be 99% spot on but alas, look at the abuse it's taken.

I think it's ganster lean was obvious when it was made however I'll wait to see if it leaks.

Nice pics ey!

I don't really want to be welding brand new goods, plus I think I can sfely say it'll die if I try and 'rebend' it back to normal. I've had confirmation that it was 100% straight when it left the US.

I've tried filling it and it leaks :( boo hoo, so I'll have to see what they come back with.
Fingers crossed

Hi mate, your radiators bent lol.

You could; ask politely for a refund ? Or find out about the courier; surely the shipment was insured ??
