[rashcupra]

been working on from 5:30 just tidying up some filler work will have all the dents removed and all pannels dent free by tomorrow night just the welding and smothing to do would like to get some interior done but i dont have the space yet

 

[Skorchio]

Any update

 

[rashcupra]

my update is the pannel beater fell ill over friday and saturday and i had to fit the clutch master cylinder to my ibiza (******* of a job!) so havent touched it but ive been trying to find some really deep dish wheels on ebay

 

[UncleFester]

Deep enough?

 

[rashcupra]

you bugger no space for wheel bolts tho

 

[Skorchio]

I really really like Borbet wheels. Alot of golfs have these.

 

[rashcupra]

these are the wheels im buying the 9j 1's with the big dish like in that pic ^^^^ but il be getting the flat borbet centre cap as it makes the dish look biger will give the tyres a masive stretch too!

the weather is exstreamly poor down south so cant get the welding done till the weather cheers up im trying to sell these recaros so i can put the money towards some wheels

 

[Skorchio]

Yeh i know what caps you mean. My mate has these shiny wheels (with the flat caps) in his loft and the MK2 still in bits in the garage. He got 7" on the front tho. and ofc streched rubber. Yours is comming on so much better than his is

 

[rashcupra]

does he want to sell??? ask him!

 

[Skorchio]

I dont think he will, there brand new. He bought then to go on it but he ent finished it yet.

he is really stupid. Well nice car Engine is very nice producing 160BHP. He Just needs to pull his fingure out!!

Im going to show him your beast.. Give him some enthusiasum!!

 

[rashcupra]

still ask him il be willing to pay near new price for them

 

[Skorchio]

Ill ask him mate and let you know

 

[dozza.13]

How much are the wheels costing ya mate? They new or used?

 

[Skorchio]

I think my mate spent 900 on his. Not sure tho. Thats with proxies.

 

[rashcupra]

£430 for new wheels £50 for the diffrent centre caps and £280 for tyres fitted and ballanced!

i can get them for £760 if my maths at school payed off

thursday the weklding and the rest of the filler work as the pannel beater feels better and the weather is suppost to be clearing up so hopefully should be done by the beginning of next week! this has really slowed me down havent touched it for a week + !

 

[richybigman]

The wheels sould look amazing mate, and at that price a bargain. Look forward to seeing the finished project.

 

[rashcupra]
