Changing a wheel stud with the hub on, any suggestions?

Morning all, So I got the calipers off,(thanks to ScottiJ for the stud) pulled out the old stud and tried putting the new one in, has anyone done this with the hub on the car?

Do I have to buy a new hub with the studs and totally take it apart or can I use a normal bolt and weld it to the back? Either way I'm going to have to take...

Re: Colour code for bumpers with Aqua green body needed plea

Thanks for that, think I'll try and do a colour match. The front grille is the same gunmetal as the bumpers too so I think I'll take that and get them colour matched. Is the Aqua a rare colour do you think?

Re: Throttle position sensor, Where to buy cheaper??

I've put the fuse in to see if there are any codes but they are all fine, there is no code, just the all clear code!?! Think I'll have to check all the hoses and see if there's a leak to why it runs so fast on start up from cold!! The plot thickens....

Re: What size rims and tyres for this stance??!!

So, as I can only get the alloys in 0 offset with the correct pcd, should i just use spacers for the 35 mm offset when going to 8" wide as mentioned by Anton? Thanks Anton...
