No flashes atm, going to either get my mate to paint them on when help does the arch or get some white vinylQuote:

I would use vinyl Edd, from my experince painting the flashes will likely bleed past the masking tape making you lose the nice sharp line you desire!
Cheers IainQuote:

Still thinking the back might need to be lower ?
Edd
Looks great mate, I think you should left it have it is mate looks the right height
Defo lower on the back! Photoshop required
stunning dude :thumb:
Definitely needs lowering more on the back.
Looks fantastic dude, but the back reallly needs to be lowered more.
Love it, cars looking well nice edd, maybe a tad lower like everyones said flol
Car looks great Edd, very nice indeed... I suspect you can't lower it much more due to the offset but I still did you a PS to please the masses lol

Looks well smart edd ! Can't wait to see it at billing ?
cheers mate, you and Craig are the only ones to say leave it at that height lolQuote:

But although it might look better i dont want it on the bumpstops, been there before and its utter crap lol
Edd
Looks spot on Edd. I'm torn on the stickers, I think it looks perfect as it stands, but what's a pov spec 1.3 with stickers without the stickers? lol Glad I don't have to decide if their going on or not.
stickers on, DONT lower it, looks fine how it is edd
cheers Matt, tbh i will fit the stickers, i will enjoy it woithout for the moment thoQuote:

I love it Edd, but the offset of the wheels annoys me just a little, from a 3/4 angle it looks a little "balanced" on the wheels rather than sitting on them.
Stickers needed too IMO.
Great car
That's more like the level I would go for, cheers for doing the shop :)Quote:

I also think the tyre profile might not be helping
Cheers Si, thanks very much. I see what your saying :) I really like the wheels, something different, hopefully when its a bit lower it will look betterQuote:

Brand new lock set, it is for a early saloon, im confident that I can adapte the boot lock to work with a hatch boot latch

Pretty good for £23.50 delivered :) seeing as had no chance of finding a new set for a early hatchback im happy
Got this as well, Toad immobiliser, new for £19.99 in Halfords sale bin :) needed one fitted for insurance, but I hate wiring :( lol
http://i499.photobucket.com/albums/r...6-30203112.jpg
Won't have time for it to be 100% finished before Billing as don't have time or cash to get the paint work or decals fitted
Edd
Will you need immobilisor fitted by a Thatcham Approved fitter to be insurance approved?
Dunno, probably lol it has the certificate in the box tho and wiring instructionsQuote:

Fit it yourself and get a fitter to inspect it and sign it off
Thats a good idea
Really really really want to drive it again lol didn't help I watched 'Senna' last night, hopefully it will dry up next week
Edd I just gauged the lowering by my old Nova tbh which drove brilliant with the 15's I had on the rear, odd wheels may of helped lol ;)
http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p...E/IMG_0871.jpg
Verging on PERFECT. !! One of the very best I have ever seen ! Attention to detail and eye for beauty is unreal !! Stickers will make it best nova ever !! Lowering it will also looks the nuts ! Small drop though !! Spot on geez !!
If you need a hand with the immobiliser give me a shout
Cheers and thanks very much, I don't think its perfect yet by a long way thoQuote:

Ian
Its a Safety Devices cage with fixed diagonal. Rear seat should fit OK
Yeah seats fit fine, not chance of anyone sitting in there tho, kinda pointless really lol
Done 250miles now, took it up the A39 to Watchet other nights, utterly awesome through the bends up there :d
Few issues as mentioned in mechanical tho
whens the stickers going on any ways?
Going to have to pop up once the turbo's home
Getting the paintwork bits done end of August, then decals fitted
Need to sort a few niggly bits this month, need a new FPR as it aint running right, fit new headlining the mrs has made me, sort some centre caps out, and possibily change the colour of the cage
Going to spray the front tow eye and the bit of front valance you can see the same colour as the bumper and fit rear mudflaps
Cor, you still not got yours done yet ? lol almost as slow as me ! lol yeah mate pop on up anytime
Good times Edd will be good to see it with the decals on it
