actually forgot to say that! the exhaust pipes will be getting extended too!

thanks for all the comments guys!:D

update on shit to go on!

got wider front wings, need a lil TLC, but nothing major, look like they belonged to a R.THOMPSON who competed in prodrift, or so the sticker would lead me to beleive haha

have no money to paint them so ill just spray them matt black for the moment and throw them on, ill get them painted eventually:rolleyes:

wait a minute have you still have spacers on the back?

If so get rid of them an get small er ones! for proper fitmeant!

Greg

I think he has 4 to 5 stud adapters. I could be wrong though.

Would you not just get some blue Plastikote and spray the wings with that? it'll cost the same as matt black but look a millions time better.

alan reckons it could be something to do with subframe bushings going or somethin?? tis a strange one dara!

The overslbs are probably different on each side..

I know an adjustable panhard rod sorts this out on an 86 but thats live rear axle

yup:(...only thing i can think is doin it is wat tekno said the driver fenders are bit bigger than the other which would make it look cambered more on one side
an id say its the most likely reason

my headlight bulbs arrived today, will probably get round to fitting them in july haha! fully e marked too:D

there gonna fit nicely by the looks of things, the pictures just show them resting on the the pod, but when done they will be back flush with the back of the pod

now onto my ongoing battle with wheel fitment

got the tires put on today (255/35/18) , but when i came back to collect them, he said he couldnt blow them up and that he would have to use a bead blaster 2moro!

when i suggested the hairspray and fire method , he said "what!!!" and he gave me a sligthly scared/concered look! he had never heard of that method before!

anyway they look like they will stretch nicely,so ill be picking up 2moro

[IMG]http://i667.photobucket.com/albums/v...0620101131.jpg[/IMG]

and to end it all, negative offset is dead , its all about the positive !
