    well I've got the set of P1 Vectra B GSi wheels that I had on the black one, it passed its MOT with them on and then I blew it up a few weeks later so hopefully they'll do, failing that its another few hundred notes for tyres as well..

    How you fixed for TVL

    They do look great, but they look heavy? Are they hollow?

    Re: Calibra Progress *!= 56k*

    Just a few more bits and bobs done

    Ordered a new fuel damper, fuel filter, two new rear plate lamps, a new ignition barrel (just in case ) a new oil filler cap and a new fuel filler cap. Didn't come to too much either which is nice!

    I got the rear bumper on the car this morning with the mesh all on...


    And i decided that the cam cover at the front was lacking in visual appeal... So out came the hammerite...

    Before:-


    After:-




    Hopefully more soon

    How do you get the rear bank plugs out? do you have to take the intake manifold off?

    It could be worse, the fuel rail could be made out of plastic and right at the front like the clio

    The cars come together really well.

    So, any talk of sponsorship from the makes your advertising?
