pics at long last...
















i went down into a town where i lived before we went out to take pics, and a guy probs about 40-50 stood there staring at the wheels rubbing his chin, his wife as with him and he started edging closer i was like ooher.
Nonetheless i opened the door and said hello, his first words were i really like your wheels, i was like oh thanks and his wife's comments were similar. That moment really made all the arguements, issues and problems that i had totally worth it

and personally i agree with the guy I LOVE IT!!!

would love to see some better pics, I have a pre '97 5 door, and removing the nasty rubstrips smartened up things a whole lot.

Also grab some astra G smoked reps they'll look mint with that colour.

well each to their own, but after I removed the cheap and nasty strips it looked a lot tidier.

I swear my reps are on backwards but they wont go on another way, I think the arch liner stops it

can I see a picture of the rear?
