Them wheels are gonna look proper lush once on. I like the tow thingy too saw a civic the other day and wondered what the hell that thing on the back was... now I know lol.

Thanks. Yes I quite like the tow hook. I just like borrowing ideas from other car scenes and giving it my own twist.

Just read from start to finish, looking very good and it's nice to see something a lil' different!

Thanks! I'm glad some people like it. Some bits are rather marmite but its built to my tastes.

What tyres are you planning on running if they're 10x7? or are you going stretch some ?

[leaky]

Just some yokos. Wont be that much of a stretch. Quite a lot of people run them on 7inch wide wheels.

Small update. I picked these up today!



Time to get the clubby on some 10's!

Also due to a problem with the DVLA I cant use the car for the next few weeks. For some reason the old owner never sent the form so the cars details were never moved in to my name. I only realized this today when I noticed my tax ran out the end of last month. But I never had a reminder so I went to try and tax it and couldnt. So I now have had to send off a load of forms to get it in my name. Lady said this can take between 4 and 6 weeks. Fantastic.

That sucks, luckily you didn't have to claim on your insurance in that time, you'd of been ducked!
