the wheels look the nuts , soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than the cav wheels
Cheers dude :)
I didn't like the new wheels at first, but I now really like them, excellent choice
But that bonnet bra thing looks shocking, spoils the car imo, sorry :)
The bra is only on for the drive, not left on at shows.(bar combe cause i thought it was funny to be on track with it)
Cheers on thre wheels, they are growning on me too..lol

I was in and out of the Mig stand all day, here there and everywhere lol and yeah yeah i'm be on Mig at Billing but over to see the PNG stand too..
haha cars been a nightmare so no racer for me.. Fronts are 47et yeah, rears have no spacers so are still et50. Fronts rub on the arches even tho i've pulled them more... That's the main reason for not going bigger... Altho the wheels them selfs look smaller than 16", so looks wise 17" might have worked..lolQuote:

Every thought of moving the AFM to inner arch maybe to make the bay even cleaner Benn ?
Im thinking of doing this when I fit the turbo stuff to mine
Never had an Insignia mate, would love to have one though! That's Ben's dad's car...Quote:

There are frigging millions on awesome wheels in 4stud. No one makes anything nice in 5 stud unless its 8x18...
Go back to 4 stud then lol
Steelies FTW lol
Some cracking pictures of your car in this thread. :d

benn...verry nice and clean nova... can you tell what is that bumper colour code please cause it looks awesome... thx :)
Thank you very much. Toyota do some great greys that look great on bumpers..
Back after PV it was Mot time. Did some pre checks... By that i mean i washed the car and changed my lights over. Mot... Passed. Was advised that my drivers wise bone as some play in it. So gonna look at some soft poly bushes... Big thanks to Craig (Saloony) For doing the Mot.
From there i finished a few things i've been doing but didn't finish.
Picked this up about a year ago, wanted the battery to be a bit safer in the boot and to look better... Is acid proof ABS plastic, ment for boats...

Superb mate
Cheers dude :)
Badges look fine, you'd be better off colour coding that tailgate handle.
How many more pics can a car have taken of it? Lol
It looked lovely at PV, much more to do before
Billing?
Why?Quote:

Wanna Ph2 it.

Mine are 4288x2948 original, 12.2mb each but photoshop change them on the upload.Quote:

Sweet pics, grass makes it look even lower!
I guess a colour coded handle would match the colour coded door handles, but whatever you prefer!
Great work benn.. Was the pics taken down porchy castle??
When im on road il have to have meet up soon..
Top work bud.
Looks amazing mate spot on!
I prefer the tailgate handle in black, BUT i still reckon the doorhandles should be matching ;) you not thought about it yet Ben ?
