banded steel will look so cool on it in black.
Not sure about roof but get some vinyl and stick that on 1sat as it wont be as expensive if you dont like it!

How much has it cost? Too much but a LOT less than the MR2 cover car, but its been worth it for the friends i've made and the places i've been to.

my bad lol must have been IAZ corsa where i read it then LOL! just checked mag to proove ya wrong but u were right lol

Yeah thats Ric's Civic that came with us to Belgium.
Yeah the Mr2 front end and wheels are spot on, but rest is standard. Maybe if i'd taken mine to Xquisite and D:Class then maybe my van would be on cover 
Plans have started, the Rh wheels have been sold, new ones are on their way, and i need to see a vehicle sign writer to see about the roof

that seems about right to me as you see most the killer rides/cover cars seem to have been built/sprayed ect by the same people such as m.a.r.c ,plush, xquisite, d:class and unique automotive(?) is it that stevie ho owns hes had like 8 feature rides lol
seems to me they stick with the same names a bit but good mag anyway some top rides,
get some pics of the new rims when theyre on and other then the roof is this it? or more to come?

Right, update time.
After completely mashing up the front tyres of the 3 spokes i had on, i had to borrow two Cav GSI wheels off my brother's Corsa. Now its got a bit of a rat look now
Yesterday i went down to Leicester to pick up some new wheels. I've now got some Design 90's like Sportyboy's but my rears are 9" wide! I just need to get some adapters and give them a lick of paint and we're away!
I'm still getting the banded steels. I just need to decide which wheels to keep when they arrive

It does side on. If they were a couple of inches wider, they'd be spot on!

Yep, new update for you all 4/1/08
Went down to Tamworth this morning to pick up some 4x100 to 5x130 stud adapters to fit the D90's
Earlier this week, i also gave the wheels a bit of paint.
I rubbed them down a bit more
Gave them a primer, then left that to set till the next day
Then applied the colour i was going with which was Peugeot's metallic graphite grey
Today i started fitting the wheels. The rears went on fine, but i'm having trouble with the fronts fouling on my coilovers, so i'll have to space them out 5mm more.
Always use copper grease on you wheels bolts/nuts kids ....
And a quick pic of the rear fitted....

Nope, if you look closer, you'll realise they're mk1 Astra arches and not standard Corsa ones.

9x16's won't go on standard arches, even if they are et49!
I forgot to ad, that my inner arches, were unwelded, then pushed right up then re-welded. I can now run the rear of the car without springs and the wheels would never catch!
