Nick, nice choice of rims!, did you consider some astra champion wheels at all?
Will look perfect on those wheels
This is going to look great Nick. The wheels will definately suit being grey giving the yellow even more lift. That colour match looks brilliant, I wouldn't mind knowing which colour you've used as I'm wanting to do my door bottoms.
Top work as always Nick. :)
Looks awesome, love the colour :) And mostly towards scott, the paint job as it is is fapping awesome, but I can see why nick would want to respray it as his paintwork is on another level compared to most, it would probably actually improve it where most would fail to do as good a job as is currently on there at the moment!
looks the tits mate, good work
One thing that i did always fancy doing to it if i ever got round to taking it apart again was removing the fuel filler cap/hole and moving it into the door shut, have seen 1 or 2 of these done and they look great, giving the side a nice clean look, and most of all none of them water runs coming out of it when you wash it :roll:
Hey Dan, Im afraid I knew before I even purchased the car what rims I wanted on it! It was just a matter of getting them and now I have with the mo flat spokes etc. I think they suit the mk1 very well imo.Quote:

MK999..... Thanks for the compliment! Although the paintwork on the sr isnt bad I wouldnt say it was the best in places either! I dont think I'll be happy until its had a repaint. Now the cars all levelled up It will look proper with a good paintjob on it that has an even finish all the way round if you understand what Im saying etc.
Matt... Cheers mate, get yourself over soon!
Shaun.... To be honest I did actually think of that myself, I really like Karl rowntrees done in the same way. Im just thinking would the finished look be worth all the effort? As to do it properly does involve a fair amount of work. Plus then Id be going away from the standardish look Id like to keep really. It certainly is something to think about though!
My opinion is, don't bother, unless your going full on show car like the last one theres no point in moving it mate, keep it simple.
Scott
No problem lol Just the way it is :) Yeah I get what you're saying, I'm a bit of a lush paintwork lover myself, only difference is I can't spray it for love nor money :(Quote:

I dunno what they're like normally but I was impressed as it's most likely factory paint too!
:) Love the look of comp mo's on a mk1
Whats happened to the roof gutter :cry:
