It's all very well spending a few quid getting a big flashy engine, new panels and all the other rubbish, but I, personally, would've left some money over to get some wheels that matched the rest of the car :rolleyes:

Image



heres a pic of the under neath just now with the new beam and coilovers on got all new bolts coming which is why they are loose.... i was lucky the poo rims only just fitted over the new calipers!!! :rolleyes:



Image
