you been reading my mind mate lol?

ok, we have an update lol

not a biggy but hey...

as the car is going into the body shop tomoz i thought i would roll the arches as i want low offset wheels and wide tyres lol

so, here we have an arch rolling tool, and no idea how to use it but its pretty obvious when you get down to it



this is the arch lip before i let loose on it lol (watch out for dave the spider )



give it some abuse lol



and you get this, the lip is nicely folded over



the rears were a pain the ass tho

then yesterday i decided that the plastic side skirts i had were rather shit, they were cracked and i couldnt be arsed to sort them...

so i got some ally ones made up





and i got a fookin good deal on em too as me old man uses the place that done it.

and a few pics of it all nicely selotaped to the car with the arches

it looks proppa bo i tell thee





thats it now till its been painted, but i prolly cant put pics of the paint jobup untill its been in the mag
