Not 100% sure of the entire process but it involves filling the holes ad drilling new ones.

Always thought the 200ts were 5 stud. 
 
Never seen those runs in 4 before. 
 
Looking good anyway, welcome.

Awesome I f@cking loved that car!!! did you have any issues with rubbing on the back?  
 
Here in SA the roads arent as good as over there! we always have to look out for potholes and what not! So too much stretch on the tryes and alot of -camber is not a good idea. although id love to drop it f@cked i'm not going to just to keep my car safe! going to only do an eibach 35mm drop 
think i'll have any issues with 8j at the back? 
 
[Edited on 13-03-2010 by Valesidecc] 
   
 
Cheers.... Roads aint that much better here to be fair    I never really used the banded steels as didnt really like them. 8J seemed to be fine when the rear of mine was about 80mm so your have no issues at all with 35mm.  
 
Interior is stunning

Cheers mate! Ye they are nice, unfortunately the TS drivers here in SA, arent happy when they see that as the rims are rare enough and then someone goes and "butchers" them to fit a corsa

So this weekend, i Sprayed the Plastic covers, and other plastic bits on the front seat satin black. 
Also need to do the other bits, bottom door pocket things  , window winders, and door handles and other interior plastic bits.. 
 
Also might be getting my hands on a GSI bumper if i'm lucky!! think i'll spray it and all the other exterior bits Satin Black too.. Haven't seen an "un-colour coded" GSI bumper yet.. Anyone seen one or have a picture of one??

Seriously those import costs are madness!! We arent really allowed to import anything in this dumb country! unless it is some super limited edition or it is because you are disabled and the car is made for you or something like that! LOL

Recieved my Superboss vents this weekend, they came with both of the funnel bits from the inside of the bonnet but one is broken and unusable, but im not complaining cos they were cheap. 
Also collecting another set of steel rims, this time 14" rims, to be banded for my fiances Corsa. 
Also hoping to get my hands on a set of eibach springs this month, holding thumbs on that one..
