Wheels looking good mate, how low you going just -60mm?
It's always better doing things yourself, get more satisfaction out of it when it's done, plus your always learning new skills

my dad was checking my work on the wheels earlyer and found that two of the wheels need knew tyres, so it wasnt worth spending money on decent paint for them as they wont be going on anymore, so used silver that we had to do the expressions, will be leaving expressions on and i will have to put up with the catching and rubbing untill i can get good tyres currently have maaaahoooooosiveee!!! 195/60/15`s tyres on my expressions

coming from college i decided to buy myself a new mesh grill as my old one had seen better days and was doing my head in
i fitted it as soon as i got back, the old one`s top slat that bolted to the car has snapped completely from the rest of the grill
new one looks much better i think

new led`s arrived not long after fitting the grill, 1st sidelight went in and worked brilliant and looked great to, but the 2nd led didnt work, neither did the other two i bought for my dad`s car, so that was a right pain in the arse taking the bulbs in and out, got my old philip bluevisions back in now untill i get these led`s sorted

Finally got my practical driving test booked! went out in the instructors car (i30) for the first time since december the other day, i didnt realise that its so different to drive to the corsa, got a few lessons booked in before the test to get used to his car so hopefully all will be good on the day!
