Thought id just through this on here for future reference as i only read posts saying major fabrication would have to be done, it doesnt appear to be the case!
Happy modding guys :happy2:

Nice work! Sounds a good outcome - could you let us know the part numbers that you used?
I take it you used the EOS V6 rear shields in the end?

I have the R32 dust shields with serial numbers as above and found that they don't fit very well. Like you say, only 2 holes align.
Did you have to remove the hub to get the shields on, because I have failed to get the dust shield over the hub (the thing with the wheel bolt holes in)!!??
Cheers,
Nick
