Quickest, easiest, cheapest SVA front end Option?
Covering up the steering/suspension gubbins
Any Ideas?
Speed and cost effectiveness to the fore!

Nut covers for nuts(!)
Split some water hose, wrap round offending tie-rod nuts etc and tie wrap in place. Cut some self-adhesive thick foam and wrap around knarled nut @
bottom of suspension (adjustable spring seat) with tie-wrap as added precaution.

or do what Dax do and fit round tube dummy bumper bars which preclude the SVA man from touching your front suspension with his ball

He wanted everything behind the bar padded in case someone walked into so that if they put their hand out they wouldn't get injured

It still seems strange that the SVA people want to protect someone that stupid (or unlucky) that they manage to make contact with something you can
only just reach if you're trying (!) yet don't give a monkeys nuts about the glowing exhausts waiting to give people 3rd degree burns....

Strange the bumper defines the floor line and everything under the floor is 'free' by the definition of the SVA manual. It goes into
great detail of how it's measured. If the tester can ignore it why is it in the manual.
If you lay on the ground and wave your arm under my tintop you can catch exposed bolts
