Default mk motorsport comes up trumps again

i would just like to say a big thanks again to mark from mk motorsports for making me a load of parts at very good prices , to say iam happy is an understatement they look fanastic and hopefully very soon there will be more to come with wrc hubs , wrc suspension and some more custom parts

heres some pics of marks work

wrc uprights , bearings , steering arms and anodised black and gold which the rear ones will be done when i finished mocking up the front end



steering arms



wrc compression struts



wrc track control arms



rear billet diff cover



wrc top mounts



wrc rear antiroll bar



cheers again mark and hope to see you soon and thanks for all your help

You can't fault Mark's parts, but unfortunately this is part of the reason I broke mine, things were taking me far too long and holding up progression with the car for months

hi james rod or mark havent actualy ordered one or paid for it ,they said they wanted a girdle and i said i would keep one for them when they are done, they are nearly complete there was a lot of work in them and i have to do paying work first ,these are new products which i have to fund until there ready to sell ,but to say you broke your car over a diff mount is a bit daft but that is all water under the bridge i am sorry you feel that way as the diff mount was actualy free but you say different but its sorted now ,this is someone elses thread so its best not to clutter it up with this ,you have my number james if you wish to call me
thanks
mark

Mark,

As you say we don't agree

Best not to get into it on here - if the mount turns up this week there will be no need

i have always paid mark half of the money up front and has never let me down , we have sometimes had to put collecting my parts back as hes to busy , and tbh i dont think people really understand how much work goes in to these parts , not just machining but fabrication ,painting etc . hes a one man band trying to do his best and please everyone and personally i think sometimes you have to wait for quality and parts that cost half the price of the orginals its a worthwhile wait

Mark has offered me loads of advice on my car and I've not spent a penny with him yet.
He is too nice for his own good.

Ill deffo be in touch when ever I want any bespoke bits for my car
