then went down to the vauxhall centre just done the round from me (very handy) and got some calibra leather seats

then went and got the sounds sorted out

Rite now things have been done i can add a bit more to this build,this is a pick of the astra cdx wheels wen i got them and some other bits that got fitted as well



so as you can see got the toad alarm fitted when i was at work.well after a very frustating time waiting for the wheels to be powder coated (2weeks lol)and a evan longer wait to get the bradied hoses i finanliy got hold of them then it was off to the garage to get the new yoka s-drives tyres fitted plus the new discs and pads


and a pic of the wheels were powder coated and the tyers were on!!!!


and this is the loan car that i had to have for the day while the work was bing done so i could get to work lol

so after getting home the wheels had to got on i couldnt wait so off with the old

and on with the new

[img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/6004/100_0156.jpg[/img]



aslo so while i was aving a lil shopping for the car i got the gm mudflaps as ive always like them so they went on as well

so apart from that thats all happen in the last cupple of days and will get some more pics wen the car is clean to put up and people think it looks betta with or with out the centre caps?
and new plans now are new shox and springs so when im ready the old ones will be up for sale the arches and bumpers will be getting painted steel gray and hopfully a custom upswepped zorst will be seen on it soon as well as some new seats but stay tuned to see whats next lol

well you get a pack of srews with them and all i did was get a pilot drill bit and level up were you want the flap to sit and pilot tho the flap and bumper then srew them in only used two screws on each one then used a cable tye to hold it in place at the bottom but only took me bout 20mins max just take the wheels off frist and then you will see what i mean

Want to get some for the front but looks like it could be harder to get a fix
