yes i do....i would have done exactly the same had i kept it...but maybe with 18's instead, but tbh the 17" look stunning and probably drive much better!!

funnily enough i remember doing a photoshop for Ian when he wanted to refurb the wheels to how they are now

i'm in no rush for the plate tbh mate.....just kep me in the loop

ps if you don't want the actual plates off the car and they are still in good nick, i'll buy them back ( i had them specially made by Chris Foster so it'll save me having more made up lol ).

I like the ride height on the car, as its not too low, but i think with 18's it would sit too high. And also i dont think it would drive as well with 18's..

I'll keep you in the loop, when i get the certificate, i'll send it along with the plates as there still in excellent condition,, dont want anything for them,, there no good to me

Nah, the cambelt can stay on i think...the pulleys are located on woodruff keys so they won't move....just make sure they don't pull outwards as you loosen of the old bolt.

oh and good luck with the exhaust...i bet you end up doing what i did
