looks good mate, but not keen on the wind deflectors, what plans you got for it>?

[tychogsi]

thnx, yeah heard that before:), im still doubting about the wind deflectors, the car had them when i bought 'r.. they grew on me;).. kinda like them now, so don't know if im gonna remove them.

My plans are, fixing it.. had r over 2 years now and she became al little rusty.
Got my replacement parts now just got to weld them in.
I have some alloys that need to go under and needs repainting. bought the car with cleaned trunklid and bodykit rearbumper.
Been busy to make er original, like a gsi supposed to be.

Been saving up for somem throttlebodies so they will come eventually.

starting to refurbush my wheels and paint them.. made a example with photoshop.
They ar Opel intra LW's believe you call them vauxhall cesaro's.

Those rims will look spot on mate

[tychogsi]

thanks..
think so 2, you see this wheels a lot on uk sites, in holland almost none.

[PRICER]

yea you do see quite a few, but when you try looking for a set for yourself you cant find'em same with cavalier slabs aswell

[tychogsi]

here the cesaros are not realy known, so its hard to search for because most people don't know the name or just sell them as "opel sport wheels" mine where 250 euros for 5, cav slabs are easy to find here..

[jordyp]

cool. ive been searchin for a set of they alloys for about a year now and cant find a decent set near me, can you not take the paint of the wind defectors? if they were blakc theyd be really nice mate,

[tychogsi]

thats a good tip mate.. think i photoshop it to see how it looks.

My new tyres came in yesterday, also made some door cards to fit the cali leathers.
Think it turned out fine.
