The red bits I guess, fuel rail spacers to make them fit as they are German injectors

No I got the red parts but the connector is to low so you can't get the injector to fit as it hits the head or inlet manifold I'm getting him to email me a pic

Ah right, are they meant to come with little metal standoffs that go on the end? I've seen people using those as injector adaptors before, small bit of alu done on a lathe

[Image: IMG_1318_zps18d19985.jpg]

One problem i can see though is where the fuel rail bolts on the inlet manifold covers the holes very slightly and will not screw in ive messaged IKE to see what the score is with this if its just a manufacturing fault because after it costing £500 i shouldnt need to do any modifying heres a pic so you can see

also there are the black spacer that fit between the head and fuel rail these definately are not going to fit lol so just waiting for a reply on this
I have still got to drill the sump for the oil return and clean the mating surface then i can fit this with wont take long so ill be getting this fitted in next couple of days
