Re: OMG! I bought something! Something special....
Cheers people
I wanted a louvre for my old mk1 fiesta, but never found one, saw this, had to have it
I seem to have 2 3rd's of the kit
i've got the bar in the middle, the clips at the bottom and the clips on the side, i think im missing the two that go in top corners? I'll have to get on of those kits by the sounds of it... I'll get pics soon 

Re: OMG! I bought something! Something special....
I attempted to get one Tom, a few emails lead nowhere though. Strange. I intend to try again though.trabitom99 wrote:180 pounds wow ... But brand new and all the fitting bits make a difference - means you don't need to go hunting for them. Autoplas still sell them, but I don't know if anyone else managed to nab a set from them other than me?
Cheers
Tom
Attack, I wanted a louvre for my mk1 XR2. You have good taste!

Re: OMG! I bought something! Something special....
haha, there my bucket seats
They got sent on a pallet covered in bubble wrap and then with some curtains wrapped around them. So there in my bedroom under the window with the curtains over them to stop them getting dusty
I really should get my build thread up on here

Re: OMG! I bought something! Something special....
It was me yeah mate. I had PM'd him a week or so before you replied on the thread and even resorted to tracking him down on other forums (E38).valman wrote:so that was you liam who bought those gotti wheels off RR. i was going to buy them for my 340, then i crashed it and spent the money on a new car

I hope they look cool on a 300, I guess you had the same thought! They're like budget SSR MKII's to my mind
Can't wait to get em on. If I think they're too small, I will let you know - complete with 4x100-4x130 hubcentric adapters that push them out further.

Re: OMG! I bought something! Something special....
As both front and rear hubs come off, could you not simply, get hold of a spare set, and have them 'cross' drilled, so you've now got 8 holes in each mounting face, so you can run the badass wheels, or just ordinary steels if you need toL14MNP wrote:It was me yeah mate.

Re: OMG! I bought something! Something special....
Never measured them, but I don't think there's enough meat on the hubs to accomodate a 4x130 PCD mate. I hope I am wrong though.Attack2001 wrote:

I thought it was strange making them for 300's, turns out they did for Aggro's too!

OMG! The All-Aggro 3 no less.
If there was the rear of any car you wouldn't use for an advert, it would be that of the podgy-arsed Aggy.
As you know, they aren't my cup of tea, but they do kind of work on some cars:

Nope. They really were/are prime Autoshite.
The predecessor the Austin/Morris 1100/1300 were far superior machines.
