Right the wheels are here and finally on the car although we have have had a bit of a set back. Image wheels called just before we fetched them to say the outer lips have been scuffed and it will be another 5/6 week for replacements. Not bad but they needed to tell us. They did offer a choice, take the wheels as they are and bring them back in 5/6 week for a swap or £50 off. We chose originally to have the money off but when we saw them they were just not good enough, so we chose the £50 off and the replacement lips when they're ready. So all good I suppose.

 

We fetched them yesterday morning and got the tyres on in the afternoon. They are awesome. You cannot gauge how big these are when there's no reference, but trust me they are huge in a epic way.

I've now got just over 2 weeks to sort a few things out before the next show. Just over a week if we wanna go to Central RS day at the pod. But we'll see how I go. lol.

New flocked dash is in and looks wicked, new wheels are on and new stereo all come together nicely. I've spent all day today cleaning, cutting and polishing and it looks the tits now. Just need a new battery and tax and we're on it like donkey kong. Took it for a spin round the block and it just catches on heavy breaking on the front edge of the passenge side skirt. A bit of a talk with the grinder should sort that out. lol.

 

Following it just looks so strange, the back wheels dont look real, they are sooooo big.

 

Anyway some poor quality Blackberry photos. Should have some better quality one after the weekend.
