no worries brad. Yeha maybe next time .. By the way, i was told that if im changing to coilovers, i should upgrade the wishes on my wishbones, change the anti roll bars and the stabiliser links. Is that something i should consider or am i okay with the standard parts?

You'll be absolutely fine dude,it's no way necessary to upgrade those components at all.

Only parts that could be considered to change would be the top mounts / bearings etc I would have thought?

You could get buy new top mount bearings,i would definately if you want a complete set as a spare.Otherwise it's only necessary if they've had excess wear or are showing signs or damaged/worn bearings.
