MOT up end of month, tires not road legal, been saving cash for some new alloys, and ended up getting these on the discount;

http://www.motor-world.co.uk/images/hires/10776.jpg


Very happy, I got a Corsa SXI sport so, the black should go well with the outer skirt and given my char is silver it should look nice, ill post a pic tomorrow when my uncle fits them.

############################### Update



Ok got them fitted, Went to put them on w/ uncle and well they didnt fit, fitment out by a few MM, we went to motorworld and said and they checked, turned out someone had replaced the stickers on the alloys, HA.

OK, then they replaced them with the correct size alloys as the originals are designed for fords, also giving me free light bulbs because i needed them for my mot (right blinker was out) :P Replaced both front wipers and rear too.


Pictures attached, things left to do
  • Fix 2x scratches and dash on bumper
  • Debadge
  • Replace both front brakes
  • tint rear window (was originally tinted, several having paid to have it done, some kid smashed it).

Update; Bought H7 Xenon Blue Bulbs Lights, Basically they are brighter and give off a minor blue tint from distance, but i bought the road legal ones because at the end of the day, is it worth a 50 quid fine? I think not!.


Peace.

off to get them fitted, peace.




Waste of money tbh. Should've spent it on something useful like a tea set or a pair of pliars.


Well, I been saving for months for these, theres RZ money and Daniel money, besides, tires had no tred so they had to be replaced. Oh and I also own a tea set and several paires of pliars, including a corkscrew.

most common place to find ur paint code will be in the engine bay although the polo 1 is in the boot, under the carpet.

Would look better if you got rid of the black plastic and got it colour co-ordinated? Not sure how much that would cost like.

Maybe lowered slightly too? Only problem with lowers is scrapes and steering can become shyte.

IM from the valleys, and we got lots of speed bumps here, so I cannot lower it sadly, as for the black part, I could replace the skirts but then its additional fees of spray which costs hundreds.
