Yeah! get some original wheel on it, Those ones look way to Boyracer Halfords to me, Just my opinion.

Right, today we found some more small problems. The courtesy lights weren't working but some switch cleaner sorted that out :( the fag lighter doesn't work, and we haven't had a look at the other bits yet, but all in good time :)

Now, what i did do today was;

Full bodywash.
Went round with the touch up pen and touched up the stone chips on the front splitter, bumper, bonnet and little scratches near the rear intakes.
Full body polish.
Back to blacked everything.
Cleaned the windows.
Buffed all the leather.
Hoovered the whole car.
Fitted an emergency hand held extinguisher in the boot.
And put a new emergency breakdown kit up front.

Here are some photos;

Other plans i have now is replacing the single din radio for a double din unit, and changing those horrible wheels back to the proper Toyota factory fit ones :wub:
