Hi, can anyone recommend a few good places, I need to send the front clam off (locally) and get the oil cooler holes filled in.

As Sheldon has said:

Frank at Option 1 is a perfectionist, you won't get a better standard of work !

Changing to a Laminova oil cooler, should save 8kg inc 2 pints of oil held in the pipes, 10ish total not inc the oil cooler itself.  The added weight will be offset (ish) by removing the fog lights and mesh, tbh there's a load being removed here and there over the next 6-12 months that'll hopefully take it from 835kg to 810(ish)kg.

Sorted now, still waiting for a reply from Option 1 but a mates stepped in so it'll be off to him tomorrow.

Thanks for your help fellas.
