Aha yeah, I spilled brake fluid everywhere ages ago and it's slowly lifted almost all of the paint off the concrete.

		Just ordered a new set of Bilstein b8 shocks and eibach springs since they're on such a good offer on demon tweeks at the moment. See how long it takes the Mrs to find out this time

Totally considering the same thing, a penny saved is a penny earnt after all. 
Sadly my wife did find out about the near £500 i have already spent this month. 
Hope the deal stays on.

It is an incredible saving, far cheaper than Bilstein could do them buying direct. Eibach springs where about the same price as buying direct but saves having to pay for two lots of postage

Just go on demon tweeks and search Bilstein with 306 gti6.  £112 each for front b8 and £77.60 each for rears.  
Best price Bilstein uk could do direct was £151 each for front struts

Eibach springs are £75.38, add vat too but still the cheapest place for brand new at the moment

		B8s are shorter than the B6s I thought for lowering? 
 
Just slighter firmer/more agressive with the two types of b8?

I did briefly look at coilovers but for the amount of time it'll actually be on a track it'd be a waste of money, b8s should hopefully be upto the task of fast road and the odd track day
