Thanks, yup hopefully should look alright once finished
Alex, the wheels don't need spacing they actually still poke out from the arches & that's with camber from previous set up. Once I've finished trimming back the metal work and the inner arch I should be ableto run the car at a good height and then dial the camber in to suit so the wheels run flush with the edge of the new arch.

 Cal!
The current ET of the wheels? ive no idea will have to work it out but as Jimmy said it is low think the rears are around et.0 ish
well spent a few hours working on it today, managed to finish cutting the metal back to allow the wheels to fit, ive got plenty of clearance now.
mocked up the fitment with the arches (currently riveted on) and put the rear bumper on to check it all lines up.
i'll be able to get it all lined up properly now and sanded back so everything fits perfect.
hopefully in a couple of weekends i'd be somewhere near ready for primer & paint ... although there is a hell of a lot of prep still to do.
here's a few quick pics of it so far

Cheers guys, good to have some positive feedback. Personally I love the way it's starting to look almost how I had it planned in my head lol although thought it would be a gamble to be honest as some people may not like 'kitted' cars 
Ben, I've seen some pics and it did look a good meet gutted I missed it but there's always next month
Cal, I've a few ideas but won't know for definite till I start painting things
New tailgate is all painted and the front bumper is also ready so it won't take much to get the car done once the back end is prepped

Spent a few more hours on the rear bumper today getting it to fit snug upto the arches, it all fits flush and is now about ready for primer and paint.
took a few photo's showing how it fits up against the arches.

Is it going to be fully colour coded? Or are the bumper tops going a different colour?
