So i took a drive to collect some GSI side skirts.. was told they were going in the bin cos they are damaged so i jumped at the chance to get them since they are also quite hard to find in SA...
They have been cut for something as they were used to make molds for some other skirts, about 10-15cm off the from of the skirt but they can be repaired..
Got them for free and they have all jacking covers Etc.. will post pics A.S.A.P

So since i have been wating for my Widened Steelies.. My tyres have become smoother than a newly shaved you know what..
Then a good buy came up so i jumped at the chance to grab it..
Corsa C GSI rims in good nick with tyres that have about 30-40% tread left. for R800 or roughly 60-70 quid..
Will only be using them till i get my steels back then they will be kept as spares..

ALL I CAN SAY IS F-U-C-K.... 4th time i have got them back 4th time they are wrong.. This is what happens when a company has monkeys working for them..
They have been widened to 6j instead of 7j with no dish.. again F-U-C-K
pics anyway..
As you can see below i hammered out the arches and still have plenty space
