Think it’s the angle of the pic Jon. Mechanic didn’t seem concerned but will check
Plus those pics were taken just after they were put down and it was lowered back to the floor. Hasn’t moved so they will also tuck in more when the suspension settles

not normally a split rim fan, but that looks bang on Thomas!

Back into the paint shop yesterday for some finishing bits and final polish.
Left to do:
Set up suspension
Install new speakers in rear - given the new stereo I've invested in passive crossovers and up-rated speakers all round
MOT
Drive!

Been a few more delays - turns out sunroof seals aren't the easiest to fit - done now though.
MOT booked for Wednesday!

Looking very good. But I would say that, it looks a bit similar to mine:
Enjoy it, when it gets back home.

Fingers crossed for Wednesday.

Hope the MOT goes well. Just looking back at the previous pictures with the new wheels and tyres on the rears look very close to the arches - is there any clearance?

Yes, as stated above the picture was when the car had been dropped off stands and not moved, tucked in now and plus the suspension has been adjusted - it sits low but with clearance

Minor delay. MOT now tomorrow as a few bits needed sorting today, looking good in daylight though
