    So yet another update gettin down to the final bit of the prep work now bought an arch roller for a steal on ebay and started rollin the arches was actually harder then u would think but anyway that revealed abit of sneaky rust



    So got some rust remady and sealed up the arches then cleaned and shulzed under the arches





    So then i went about making my own arch extensions to realise later on that it didnt work





    Started taping



    Delivery





    So still waiting on a few other bits also black housing the headlights but forgot to get pictures

    Ok so havent updated this in ages things have not been going so well
    Got it painted

    Wasnt happy with the finish so started again

    So already to go again


    So this time came out abit better not perfect but sure it was painted in a shed wit no door

    So put it all back together and i questioned weather i went the right route with bolt on arches but later started to like them

    Quick pic of it all together without all the wheels


    So wheels arrived thanks to the lads in jdm distro and automatically started masking them up for dave to do abit of airbrushing
    So finished result have to say dave is some man with that airbrush the spokes are done so well it looks like factory paint

    So of course things were going to well
    I then went about fitting the wheels and well they dont fit having some clearence issues with the skirts and wings and also the coilovers
    So this left me with a big problem so me being me 2 steps forward 1 step back i made an order from driftworks for front japspeed offset tension rods to try pull the wheels forward in the arch spacers all round driftworks rear toe rods and a solid steering colume bush nothing wrong with old rubber one but iv heard these make a nice difference to the steering so thats it for now just wainting on parts now will update soon
