The issue with that wheel will be the cowling.

Jubliee clips on the CV

I offered the cowling to it and it seemed ok, haven't tried to fit it properly yet mind you.

jubilee clips are ok, better then cable ties lol, trouble with jubilees is they can work a little loose and require nipping up from time to time.

crimp clips will require no maintenance

Didn't take any more progress pics off changing the CV boot, battery was low on the camera. It was charged by the time I was finished though

Lovely. Another job done.

After I rebuilt the front end up

Think I'm going to keep the poverty spec bumpers

Looks wicked with the morretes.

The black bumpers are a really good touch,makes them oem and looks very clean and different.

I see what you mean now with brakes.

Cheers Dan, I'm liking the look of it with the black bumpers and like you said you don't see many modded Corsas with the black bumpers. Going to heat gun them up, should make them look better

Thinking I need to go lower on the front though, going to look into a set of coilovers

Gaz short bodied coilovers, and low profile tyres, Can spec your spring spec then too.

Cheers lads

, I do quite like them myself Shaun, I keep going out to have a look at it

, its missing something though, haven't quite sussed what it needs but it looks a bit plain for some reason, probably just needs a good clean tbf.

Cheers fella, when I got it over there and was able to stand back and take a look at it all it just all fitted together the rocker tieing in with the brakes etc and the black wheels against the bumpers, I'm very pleased with it

Need some steiny skirts now to tie in with the theme!

Not much is left to do tbh, need to source a fuel line as I've managed to lose one of mine

, thats a 5 min job once I get the fuel line though, need a radiator as the one from the donor car is huge! Sits way above the slam panel and then the wiring. Other than that its just niggly jobs like brake fluid and what not, almost there
