Looking much cleaner now.

Have you decided to sell those old red wings yet? If not then my mate might take those wings off you if you're chucking them

Coming on well mate! Good work on that bearing! Is it MOT'd or will it need doing before you use it?

If you are going to need it MOT'd stick the old headlights back on as the depo's are LHD (left hand drive) so won't pass an MOT.

I really don't like the black one on the Cav wheels btw! Yuk!

Oh. I also have plenty of tiger seal knocking about as I use it for sealing my split rims up if you need to use some! It goes off in the tubes but I have a half tube still in useable condition. Should be enough for you.

Small update , been getting gus ready for moving house again , so fitted my fk rear springs as the 100mm springs were to low to get gus out of the garage :s same at the front so has been raised so is about 75mm at the back atm and the front is about 60mm now but once it's in it's new home the 100mm springs will be going on and the front will be wound down all the way again just need some new tyres as the 195 50 15 tyres I have are too chunky for my liking thinking of running 195 45 15"s like on my black Corsa or going 195 40 15? Any way had these few new bits to fit ....


Nothing exciting really just bulbs light clips and door pin

Bulbs in and light clips



Also fitted the inner arches but they will be coming off for the outer arches to be put on first.

And a parting pic



Thanks for looking g

It's where I've painted it mark lol I have missed a few bits though
Yeah gav that's the only downside to them really not built for back roads though this
Dan it's pretty easy I think just had a different mount to buy but that's it should just drop in
