Thanks

They look like Mini Miglia arches , used on the racing Miglias , no problem getting these BUT think long and hard before you go to 13" wheels especially 7x13 .

Lovely! Sure Ill let you know when Ill be down anyway for the other work too. I need to get the basics sorted first. Engine is giving a bit of trouble and its due its NCT end of next week. Horn isint working either. I might push out the NCT for a little while until I get other bits sorted. My list is increasing for you on a weekly basis! :)

Paul Kelly is sorting out the engine bits for me anyway, so I have faith in him. Ill wait till next week before deciding what to do for the NCT.

So I believe! Once I have that sorted, I will get back onto you so we have a fair idea what to do. Ill probably take off the zeemax kit over the next week or 2 anyway. Im not sure what condition underneath is. I have a feeling I have a few rusty edges.

What size wheels and tyres are you using ? this will determine what arches you will need .
