Hi
Do you have a picture of your front valance, is it in a worsen state than mine,
I am gonna sand blast mine it then fit a front spoiler to it. Give it that nice individual touch.

There's a valance on eBay if you need it

so these arrived today along with new sills. the sills are too nicely packed for me to unwrap them until i get them to the garage.

a special thank you to irish-chris for the arches.

tomorrow i get the delivery of an early front skirt.

and single headlamps should arrive soon too. TIME TO GO TO WORK!!!

can you guys suggest deep dish 8j/9j wheels for around £600-£700 please. im lost for ideas. i was thinking rota BM8s or Dares bbs reps.

Ok so i just came back fromt he garage and found that the wheels i bought dont quite fit. They are too wide. Not a problem but i need to widen the arches. I found fibreglass arches on ebay that might do the trick for now until i get proper sheet metal arches fabricated. Any one have any advice or have any type or arches that might fit?

Copy the bottom description into ebay and they should come up.

When you see Mick @ Pristine ask him about dressing the arches. He'll be able to work the metal and you won't need to take the fibreglass arch route.
