Update time
Finally got the wheels balanced and centre caps painted. And now there on my car
Balanced and set in order.
Decided to paint centre cap bolts metallic blue. I think it looks nice but probably end up paining it black. Just figured id see what it looks like
Wheels on car

Thanks mate. Its a month later then i wanted to wait but had financial issues so wheels had to wait. Im so happy now i got some decent alloys. Need to paint brakes now though as you can see them lol
Another update :
Just dropped our lass off at pole dancing class
was first trip with new wheels and feels solid. Bit wider then stocks so should be grippier a little bit.
Forgot to show my new dustcaps lol
On the way there a speed bump nocked a dash bulb out so when i got home i got cracking sorting that. While i was there i replaced the middle bulb that was white with a blue led i found in my boot. I though i lost / broke them all until i found this one hiding in my boot the other day soo matching leds finally
Thats all for now. Really fancy coilovers to stiffen up suspension. Rear is a bit crap coz of the sub i have so after christmas i best get looking for some cheap ones.
Also ordered some corsa-b.co.uk stickers so should have them soon
Also still want a spoiler and temped with subtle exhaust

The car has came on really well
Do you find it a bit odd looking at the red empty mark on the fuel guage? To me it looks like a big void on mine

looking alot better without the wheel trims
not sure on the blue studs, think it looks like a bit of the paint is chipped and its the only blue on the car
when its lowered it will make it look awesome

Thats not too bad tbh looks like the crash bar took the most of it, dent in the bonnet could be hammered out by yourself till you get a replacement
