    Since upgrading to after market parts on my 2014 GT86 over the last year, I have a few OEM parts for sale if anyone is interested
     
    Prefer collection from west london, but happy to meet halfway if not too far.
     
     
    OEM taillights (£50 ono)
     
    Selling as upgraded to Vlands last year - both in good working order and no damage.
     
     
    OEM Bumper brake light (£50 ono)
     
    Selling as upgraded to Vlands last year - good working order and no damage.
     
     
    OEM Brake set - 4 sets of front and back callipers / pads and discs (£300 ono)
     
    All I’m decent condition and wasn’t a forced change - selling as upgraded to BBK last month. 
     
    I believe the brake discs and callipers have been on the car since new (so have covered about 65k miles).  
     
    The discs are in decent shape and the callipers were refurbished and painted Ferrari red (with GT86 decals) about 6 months ago.  The brake pads worked ok while I had it on the car but could do with replacing 
     
     
    OEM Boot Lid Spoiler-less - Black (£400 ono)
     
    Long story, I have been looking for a spoiler-less boot lid for more than a year to avoid the hassle of filing the oem holes (for a different spoiler / GT wing) and these are really hard to come by …. managed to find one couple of months ago from a fellow GT86 enthusiast - and we swapped our boot lids
     
    However I ended up on a different path - Seibon Carbon boot and GT wing so don’t need the spoiler-less boot
     
    It is not in mint condition with some patching and touch up paint used by a previous owner, so might need repainting or a boot wrap. However it can’t be noticed from a distance and I had the boot on my car for a couple of months
     
    Let me know if any questions … can provide more close up pictures on request

    Having a bit of a clear-out in the garage.

    Tein flex A; covered around 25-30K Usual paint flaking from the top mounts. Replaced with a set of AST's for a more track focused set up. It won't take much searching to see that these are highly recommended for road and occasional track use.

    £300.

    Perrin strut black in black, removed because it doesn't fit over my Harrop charger. 

    £80.

    Perrin front drop links, supplied with spare bushes as one failed on me and Perrin sent a bag full as they were quite new when it happened.

    £40.

    Located in GU6 area, happy to post at buyers cost, will get pics asap.

    @AJ124 do you have any pictures of the Perrin strut? I might be interested 🙂

     I checked out the Camskill site just now and current deal on the 245x35x18 PS4 is £533 (including shipping) - less £60 comes to about £473

    225/40/18 comes to £290

    235/40/18 comes to £394

    You definitely got a better deal 😜

    since I will have to pay fitting costs on top, Costco is still coming out as a better deal (£478 fitted for 245 and 400 fitted for 235)

    thanks @Booboo for keeping an eye out

    Thanks @spikyone … I had looked at the previous link and thought the stretch looked ok

    i did a bit of digging around on tyre prices and below are the best deals I am getting for the options (fully fitted)

    225/40/18 (350.04 Black circles)
     
    235/40/18 (399.92 Costco) - about £50 more than 225
     
    245/35/18 (3mm) (478.64 Costco) - about £130 more than 225
     
    Which one do u guys thinks is best size for the cost?

    @Booboo .. thanks for sharing - it is good to know that some is running the same alloy specs.

    also the link was handy … I spent sometime this afternoon considering various combinations factoring the rolling radius and seems like there are only two options within the tolerances

    235/35/18 (-4mm)
    245/35/18 (3mm)
     
    also I am on coilovers and lowered by 15/20 mm I think - would that have any impact on the rolling radius - should I be factoring this in  or lowered stance wouldnt matter?

    Coincidence much haha I got mine back today also, u should consider black locking wheel nuts etc iL attach the link 

     

    mine are gloss black with a grey laquer finish to give them an off black look aka in certain positions they have a tint of grey to them and the black is less shiny glossy etc

    @Jay Bamrah

    thanks for sharing the website line for the black wheel nuts … had arrived last week but only managed to get them fitted on the the car this afternoon - they make such as difference A80336E1-35C2-4BAE-8BE6-EBAD7BB4ED4A.thumb.jpeg.afb42f5458f5fd08cf199f15bf968ed3.jpeg

    Can you show me them, so they smoked them for £160? 

    Sorry … I meant you asked how much I paid for the refurb and painting the alloys back … that was £160

    I got the smoked  VLAND taillights and rear diffuser lights straight from the VLAND website and got one of the local garages to fit it for me (comparison picture)

    Haha no problem, yours look really good how much did u pay in the end?? I like ur headlights also Valenti ones or vland

    The headlights are smoked VLANDs … in fact I went for the whole set so have got the smoked VLAND taillights and rear diffuser lights … love them 

    I didn’t want to spend too much so found these guys in MK who did the job for £160 (all in) … they also turned it around in about 6 hours while I waited at their garage this morning.

    I know some refurb shops take 24-48 hours so this maybe not be the best in the quality stakes - only time will tell

     @Jay Bamrah … that is some coincidence and the wheels look great 

    also thanks for sharing the link for the black locking wheel nuts … I was thinking about searching for one on my way back from the garage so this was perfect timing 

    Have just put in the orders so can’t wait for them to arrive 

    you are a star!!  Thanks
