Looking good mate,
Although as a bit of constructive criticism id recommend putting adjustable bushes in so the arms are adjustable in situ, as by the looks of yours you have to undo the rose joint completely and remove from the bracket then turn and re fit every time to adjust it,
These are the kind of thing you want to fit

Alrite mate, those bushes you've posted up shouldn't be need on the rear beem due to it not really being made for adjustment in that area. The bushes are in situ to allow for the beem to have more independence and not static like the standard beem.
Tow in and out and camber will be achieved with shims etc on the hub face of the beem.
Where I do need those bushes you've posted up though is in my ZOO front arms, crap design of bushes he's placed in as I will need to remove the arm every time I need to adjust it and setting up will be a nightmare.
How much would 4 of those be?

Ah i see, i didn't realise you were shimming for toe in/out, thought you were doing it off the joints and that was the reason for making it adjustable
Dewitts race and rally sell the bushes, about Ł40 each so not cheap for 4 but the best way to do things properly

Not realy an update but some chat re- me car.
Been working on a few cars up at my unit past few weeks and few mates been looking over L2.
One tuck the piss cause I have cotten sheets under car cover (Ginge) lol and another who paints told me I needs to get a good layer of protection on to the paint even though it's in storage because the covers were putting more and more swirl marks into the paint due to them being taken on and off.
So popped to Halfords today lol for polish! got the three stage Maguires stuff and went up and gave it a wipe over after taking family out for dinner.
Hers is a photo from other day showing paint not looking to great -
Now heres some from today after the three stages -
Only did the front and the passenger side, when I tried to put the sheets and car cover back on on my own it was a nightmare as it all kept sliding off as the paints that smooth
