B's seem to be rapidly declining, especially clean ones.
This one is really starting to look decent now

Thanks Generation 
I rarely see B's anymore where I live, and never modifed ones just old men/woman who've had them for years.
Shame really I think they are still nice cars but most people seem to want something newer now. Corsa C's seem to be very popular, at least around my area and the people I follow on instagram.

That looks so nice, didn't realise how small they are to the standard steering wheels though! I need something like that so my legs have room

I love it mate, the standard wheel is 370mm I think and this one's 280mm so a good bit smaller!

Yeah as I was spreading the peanut butter on the plastics I was thinking it was probably bad idea from the point of view of being painted soon as I'm basically rubbing oil on them but they had gotten so faded they were making car look scruffy

If theyre getting badly faded get a heat gun on them. Takes 15mins to do a whole car. The heat reactivates the catalyst in the dye turns them back black. Gotta get them hot but you will see it change then just move straight on. Pretty hard to fuck it up

I was actually gonna heat gun them on the day I spread them with peanut butter but couldn't be bothered getting the extension lead out even though it would have saved me time
