  1. these will look amazing when you get it sitting on the street was always afraid of these wheels cause of the ofset! lol top job
  2. yeh thats true! lol have my eye on a few old rims but its just trying to find them in a good price range but got until march before the first big show Dubshed in march!
  3. Cheers lads! yeh at least with tuck i wont have any arch problems! ehhh not to sure what the next plans are im hopefully saving for another car just as a wee project would love a wee nova but hopefully the arosa will make it through the winter and get a set of wheels for next year tbf their prob gona be another set of vauxhall ones i have my eye on! lol
  4. LOL yeh usually around town at some stage if i can get the girlfriend outa the house! havent saw in lupo around in ages then a wee green sport was in the other night! looked quick as f**k! lol yeh needs spaced big time like ET49 so loadsssss of tuck! lol back ends spaced out 20mm so isnt too bad! Cheers dude!
  5. dont realy have any pics but i can tell you the doorcards and all that pull off you have to take part of the doorhandle on the inside off to unscrew the handle and then just yank it off and for the headliner you have to unscrew the handles and try unclipping the light on the roof and it slides forward and down and then its just a case of ripping off all the old fabric which is a bit of a knightmare tbh! but then its just a case of using plenty of fabric glue especially around the edges to make sure it holds! dont be afraid to really lay it on as it may fall down after time!! good luck with it!
  6. yeh your definetly right just hard to find something no one else has done! lol would maybe think of going down the vauxhall rims again im not sure would love banded steels but we will see how funds are!
  7. Cheers bai glad to see its appreciated! just need to decide wat im for doing now next year! thinking of going for some dish! lol
  8. i just ordered the fake suede fabric off ebay mate it was fine i got like 5 metres of it to do my headliner and doorcards. only thing that let it all down was i didnt use good enough glue and my headliners sagging! lol but i have new glue and its dead easy to take everything off!

Awww dont even talk about it dude my girlfriend couldnt understand how it was taking me so long to do them! the wee buffing discs for a drill and polishing compound worked wonders on it! thanks very much! Stop tempting meee! lol Nah seeming i have them all polished didnt want to waste all my hard work! thanks very much they have had alot of attention and funny looks at shows i can tell you that much! lol few people have even came over and shook my hand and told me well done have never saw something like that before! lol made me blush a little! thanks for the comments!
  21. so bit of an update! got my centres sprayed today and gave rosey a well deserved wash! heres a wee photo of my arosa and Ruth W's lupo at a local car show! wee buddies. wee photo of my centre caps have turned out really well chuffed to pieces with them! Thats all for the moment have to give it a real good detail before the last show of the year at the end of september thats ifff it gets through MOT!! your comments are very welcome! cheers
  22. wel halfords was hit hard this afternoon and bronze is the colour of choice! now its just time to get them sanded down and sprayed and get a few pictures up for your guys approval!
  23. I have put a set of evo 3 recaros into my mk2 arosa! a simple subframe welded/bolted together and four holes drilled in the original seat runners and bolted in and job done! thats with using the original rails that were in the evo! only took two nights to do with just pieces of box section! if you have the supplies and a little knowledge the skys the limit when going for some nice seats! good luck either way!
  24. yeh the more people that have asked me what those wheels are off is amazing! sooo think it is time for a colour change then! just what colour will have to be decided think im liking bronze possibly not too sre! thanks for all the comments!
  25. so bit of an update . . . . . . got my new alternator fitted today which will hopefully have my car running a little sweeter after the few weeks of problems ive had! will have to get a few more pics up but really have to go ocd on it someday so it looks a little more respectable.
