As per the studs, he prob doesn't even carry them in stock, he's just trying to cover his ar$e for the theft, and his reasoning as to why he didn't need to steal them


I've experienced everything you've said first hand.

He told me on one of our many telephone conversations that my nuts were only on by a few threads so suggested that I buy a tuner style nut which captures more threads. Peter supplied and fitted them, no problem.
But why on earth would he fail to mention that the nearside front wheel only had stock length studs resulting in the same issue of the nuts only capturing a few threads?!?!?! That was the whole point of me spending £30 on new nuts!!!! :lol:

Another forum member also experienced the exact same thing, but his was noticed when the car was elsewhere having his poor workmanship fixed. Coincidence????

If you both cant keep this crap off the boards then you are both not welcome.

Calling each other names is just downright childish. I suggest you take this elsewhere, or I will forced to take action, and if that means both of you being removed from IMOC then so be it.

I have had enough of this, and wasted far too much time in dealing with it.

Just making sure you know I am watching. Had enough of this tit for tat.

Step out of line, either you, Peter, anyone ....then the axe will be swung.

Anyone who has issues with SBits, deal with him direct, and report it in trader feedback. I will not have IMOC descend into name calling and all round stupid childish behavior.
The forum is quiet enough already without all this negativity and potential to do more harm and drive others away.

Thread locked.
