so we got some more done today, our show plates turned up :cool:

also went back to the scrappies as the tyres were too big and were catching the arches, the nice people at the yard said this was no problem, so changed them from 195/60/15 to 185/55/15 and it didnt cost a penny :)

then went and got some paint (ford graphite grey), primer and laquer

got them all sanded down and repaired the kerb marks

Image

primered

Image

me painting :)

Image

Image

centre caps done

Image

what they should look like :cool:

Image

sat in the kitchen over night to dry :lol:

Image

tomorrow is the laquer

we think they look good, what you think?

more tomorrow :D

:lol: :lol: u've gota start somewhere. get yourself to a decent scrap yard, the one we went to had alsorts of vauxhall alloys like cav slabs, old style sxi's ,vectra sri's, tigra's etc.

they also had alloys from merc's, alfa's the list goes on :lol:

and if they wanted £60 for rare cesaros they cant of wanted much for the more common ones. all depends aswell on who u know aswell

nope 205/55/15 is way to big for a corsa, you need something like 185/55/15's or 195/45/15's
