Now we're getting some where :mrgreen: Got the front end and the bumper on today, also got the new wheels on. They fit ok but on full lock they hit the inside of the sill, but some fine adjustments with mr angry should sort that out for now.

Hey Scottie, yeah my tyres only measure 32" aswell :cry: Im sure i read something about this on difflock once, and someone evan emailed kumho to ask why they weren't actually 33". I cant remember what kumhos excuse's were now, something to do with heat expansion i think.

The head lights are mk2 golf crystal clear, smoked. I got them cheap off ebay cause they have slight rust bubble round the side light holes.

Im not sure if im going to sell the old wheels yet Scott. I want to see how i get on with the 33s first. But i will let you know if i do decide to sell them.

Wow Ferris! That lookes awesome. Literally, it's awe-inspiring!
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.
