Jonnygt Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Heres my mk1 arosa, after loving these for a while i decided to get one, due to work circumstances etc. on a budget atm but managed to get it the way i like it. Its a 1.4 aswell, not too bad. I paid £550 for it, bog standard with 80k loads of receipts, 12month mot and 4 month tax. Was very very clean, was off a old man : ) First things first, coilovers! Found some mint ones for £80 so snapped them up! i had a set if 15" g60 steels there, so binned the tyres and got a full set of 165/50 which again bought 2 new ones, then found two brand new ones off a mate for £50 with 10mm spacers and also 2 6.5j steels. Bargain! So when payday arrived, got everything fitted, got my stance right, then fitted the magic 'wheeltrims' Also done my indicators all round, wrapped in clear orange. Less of me blabbing on now, ill get some pics up!! Enjoy, comments and critisisms welcome Bit of wheeltrim stretch.Also as you probz noticed, its got a mk2 bootlid and also de-wipered and de-badged it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LupoJoe Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Not sure I like those giant wheels but looks good anyways!Are you going to remove the bump strips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnygt Posted November 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 They only 15's :/ lol Yeah will do, im wanting a paintjob first, then once they off may leave them If not, ill get new ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LupoJoe Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Oo hmm ok ha and wouldn't it be better to take them off before you get a paintjob? If you leave them on then you will have a strip of old paint when you remove them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnygt Posted November 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 I know that, lol what i mean is, dont wanna take them off yet, incase if i pull them off and paint underneath is different colour or comes. Havnt got money for paint job yet, so dont wanna risk it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koop Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Start on one of the smaller ones on the rear quarters, if you don't like it or discover some kind of paintwork horror stick it back on. Sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
