There we go mate, put them up for you. I'll delete them when you manage to do it yourself.

Not a bad car, a Mk1 rear wrap around spoiler would look better though imho.

:thumb: hate the rear bumper but cash flow is at a low new pix soon to be added,cheers for the upload

[vauxluva]

update in next few days,just got wings,and some manta 13" alloys just being cleaned up and sprayed,carnt wait cheers for all the input i have asket for ,luke(vauxluva)

[Connor]

standard sr look ftw :cool:

[vauxluva]

im wanting to change the rear bumper defo for a gte item,maybee keep the boot depends,i need input on tyres tho they are 13inch manta rims but rear wheel drive offset,its lowerd 40mm,?

[Connor]

Personally (IMO) I would ditch the boot as it looks stupid smoothed off with just the rear wiper. I think you should have it smoothed completey or just have a standard boot.
Oh and gte rear bumper would be a big improvement
And what about nova gsi/sri 3 spokes. They would look good

I wouldn't listen to me pal, its your car, if you want to do something to your car, or like something on your car, keep it. And i have to agree with you, i like things to be different but as you say there might be offset troubles i just pointed out the gsi 3spokes 13's would be a smart replacement.

[vauxluva]

[vauxluva]
