    update : i had a few problems with cv joints and shafts a while back, everytime i bought a cv joint and fitted it to the driveshaft the shaft would spin in the joint as if it wasnt gripping it, i eventually came to realise that i was pressuming that the driveshafts were 22 spline shafts but discovered they were 28 spline shafts so after finally getting the right cv joints i built up the shafts and this is how they looked,


    thanks for looking,
    phil.

    and then some random pics in the snow,

    cheers guys, i know im unsure on the skirts just because i dont want to have to drill my sills to fit the skirts on and i dont really want to bond the skirts on as getting them off, if i ever need to, will be an absolute nightmare. its not arden blue but it is very similar its jus slightly greener and lighter than arden blue, its suzuki cobalt blue that comes on the swifts and a few others.

    Dude that looks awesome.
    All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi
    Far from suicidal
    Still I get them tendencies
    Bringing back them memories
    That I really miss when I reminisce
