cheers lads,i dont know if i can belive i just did that (cant wait to tell the girlfriend! :lol im sure i can get them to fit (aron if you can get my old bbs under your arches,i will make sure those lambos get under mine! lol)
just hope they have them, i have emailed asking if i can purchase them without tyres so i can get some stretch, if they dont have them in, at least my name is down for some etc,
lets hope they have them!
cant wait to egt them! but need to get painting finished first then a few other things, THEN they will go on

yeah brad, like with your old bbs's, it's a case of making them fit

i'm secretly hoping you have to put a little bit of negative camber on the rears... would look niiiice.

its not matt, its satin, much better finish than matt, has more of a 'shine' (ish)
to it, and can always be poilished/buffed and laquered if i want a shine in the future,
cheers for your comment anyway, i know not everyone is gonna like it, a lot of people are starting to come round to it tho!
