Nathan_S Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 hey guys been on here a while so i thought i better get some pics up here she is as i bought her a new steering wheel from my dads first car (sentimental value and all that) old type of 6 bolt though so i made an adapter and a custom horn button and key ring (god i love abusing college's machines) who said you couldn't fit a friend in the boot of an arosa New lights (makes the car look newer from behind lol)i also polished off the chrome lettering and asked my sister (art student) to paint inbetween the letters so you can still read it!latest edition is the new wheels BBS RA's fitted todaydone some other things like LED side lights, new stereo and some 6X9's in the parcel shelf (thanks to LittleRich) but no pics im sure you've seen it all before including the car spent about £1500 i think :S i dont think thats too bad on a budget? what do you guys think?cheers Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardaft Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Thats looking great The rear light and white badging really suit it too, Not overly keen on the steering wheel though. Very tidy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive heard if you fit an aftermarket wheel which doesnt and your car should have one then you may invalidate your insurance. Just be careful with that - im not 100% sure how true that is.Main reason i dont like it though, i wouldn't like all those screws and holes imprinted permanently on my forehead in an accident Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
