yes

The roofrack suits this so much better man, looking forward to seeing the finished article!

And the rims are back Polished - Rainbow Polishers 10/10 - looking shiney as fook along with some Stretched tyres :-)

Very happy - Thanks Mr Gaz.

Now all that needs doing is for Ben & Kev to fit the gear box back on, Lower it a bit more and fark me this wil be one epic daily..

Hmm new clutch me thinks as the one supplied is slipping a bit,

loking at one of these.

So plan for today - Lowness.

The ill update with some pics, so get your Tissues ready as this is fast becoming Jizz material.

came out sweet...

more lows?

Wheels look nice but tyres are still too big especially for the look your aiming for, Exhaust deserves to be on a corsa and you need an oem one or summat simple and shiny, I spotted some rust on the rear arches I would sort that asap because it will get worse fast.

But looking good keep it up.

Thanks Tesh, yeah theres some rust on the back but me and Ned are gunna take it the body shop soon.

Lowness is a must, sadly the tyres were on budget as 165/50/15's are like £150 for budgets and £200+ for bridgestones so im gunna save up for a set just before JAE and then slam it, or I may slam it before then who know's..

looks sweet mate, deffo needs to be lower with some more stretch though!

Deffo more stretch and lowness.
Looks much better with new rims tho, liking it

Transmech Clutch Kit Part No.: 641751301 £70.80

^^ New clutch??

smaller tyres deffo, since youv had them polished you may aswell clean them too, inbetween the raised areas look well dirty

Left over polish gunk, Ill give it a clean tonight.

Very happy with how its starting to look..

I have a few updates to come later this week, its about time I got my ass into gear with about 8 weeks till JAE.

Refreshed wheel update, a suspension/lows update, plus a body work update. I will drop a load of pics up during the process.

I am also ordering a new clutch kit for the ED2 and having that fitted asap, plus I already have a new set of TRE's and a full Energy Suspension bush kit to fit.

@ Ned at some point can we hook up with your bodyshop mate to grab a quote as ill be ordering some new arches as well.

@ Ezz is there any chance I could use your welder at some stage unless Neds body shop mate can do the welding?

I'll take you to my mate Marks garage and or the place that did mine. both will weld

Talking to dave and this is the only other ED2 sedan that looks good.

like i said, it just doesnt work for me. the wheels, apart from them being rota's, are just too modern.
the colour also makes it looks too plain.

yours is going in the right directions baby boy!

looks like a rover 400 trying too hard

:-( shame on you Andy.
