I'd say 14" or 15" Vauxhall wheels, ie slabs, cesaros, fan blades etc. Even some sport alloys to start you off

My side repeaters are smoked using tint spray, and yeah thats a good idea if you wan't to keep the rear wiper, they look much tidier.

To make sure the overall wheel size is the same use this:

It helps you calculate what tyres will make the wheels closest to the original manufacturer's size

Apparently the bras sold by van-x are a shit fit. If you are going to get one you'll be better off spending more and getting a good quality one.

Don't know. I haven't had any personal experience with any type of bra I just read in a project thread on here a day or two ago that those ones by van-x were a bit shite.

Anyway when are you going to get some pictures up of some progress? Every post on this page just seems to be loads of eBay links lol.
