had work this morning until 1pm so i cracked on after that and ended up getting front bumper built back up and fitted and also arches and arch liners. (arch liners are horrible.)
offered up a cav expression against my car, they WILL be getting refurbed and new tryes, thinking 195/45/15s? not sure on what colour though.
all that i need doing is welding, new center exhaust section and touch up my sills where ive treated the rust.
im also wanting some 100mm lowering spring for the rear as i dont like the way it sits.
the photos arent the best..
i have a new boot to go on yet so the stickers and wiper will be gone.
bumper paint reflection.
picked up wome vectra interior handles.
helping the bodyshop, need to relocate it really.
ashs with tonys sticker.
offered up a cav expression, as above, they will be getting painted and new tryes.
c/c welcome lads! some more will be happening over the next few weeks too

as my dad was away this week he left me with his house and because my cars there i got a bit of work done as i was off work all week
i was sat wondering what i could do with my expressions that some people havent dpone before so i thought a polished outer and a colour coded satin red inner? heres some pics anyways.
i started by doing little sections first but they areno where near finished
then i started working my way around the wheel
im this far after getting rid off all thecvsilver/white primer i just need to get the polished bits to shine now
this is how ive spent 2 of my days
in between all the wheel sorting i had a delivery which contained my center exhaust section so i got the whole system fittind again.
backbox needs adjusting to sit straight and a bit higher but i maybe getting an outward rolled 3" when money allows
ash and luke came round for a bit so had to get a cheeky photo of the 2 corsa and nova, not the best but you know haha, ignore my horrible silver tigra alloy.
ash was sorting his wheel arches out so got a few pictures for him.
he only just managed to get down the slope to my drive haha
side by side, notice ive had to leave my laguna splitter off because my driveway pulls it off
some guy my dadknows came round and sorted my welding out, hes the rot before.. i dont have any after shots of it.
i also had to change my steering whel back to the old shitty one because i needed the horn for mot and just couldnt be bothered to sort the other wheel yet haha.
heres how she sat when she was on the jack haha
then gave her a clean inside, sorry for the bad photos
i had to give the expression a little trial fit though
and just a few random shots of my spare boot thats going to need spraying, ill also be getting the wiper hole welded over too.
i also ordered a few bits last week and they came to my girlfriends whilst i was at my dads.
tigerseal
exhaust downpipe gasket
pressed plates and some velcros for the plates.
finally just some random shots of the car, the rear also needs dropping a little too and im waiting for ash to buy some rear coilovers so i can buy his 100mm springs.
C/C welcome lads

Bought a few things today/over the week.
I bought some new tigra clocks because mine say 110k and my old mileage was 91k and the new clocks say 90,908 so I'm really not far off wi the new one and they only cost me a fiver!
All bought a new tigra scuttle as that was a fiver too.
As I'm polishing my wheels I thought I'd polish some bonnet bits so bought a new rocker cover which was also a fiver haha.
I've tried to put my exhaust downpipe gasket on but for the life of me I can't seem to get a good seam and it keeps blowing, any ideas lads? Really need some help.
Will get some pictures for you all over the weekend.
