So worked on the headliner today here how it looks! Firstly cut a piece of cloud 9 for the back of it for extra sound proofing
Then made it fit and cut out holes etc

Well since my business meeting got cancelled today. I decided to do abit of work on the last alloy that needs painting only thing is it's kurbed loads so stuck a load of alloy putty on it the other day.
Began sanding it to get it back to a good condition.
This is where I'm at so far but it started raining and I'm still suffering badly with my concussion so came inside.
I'm off to doctors later as all they offered me yesterday was a phone consultation!!!!!!!!!!
Anyways on a positive note my tyres turned up yesterday!

Got the tyre put on the alloys today!
2 of the alloys need finishing of with the pink on the inside but for now they'll do. Hoping to have them taped up and finished at weekend. Hopefully this concussion I've got will have gone by then as it's stopping me doing things! Can't even drive at the moment
Also I've been doing some thinking and I'm not gonna be able to everything sorted on Purdy for FCS and I ain't got the money to get her finished, but she will be finished this summer so I can enjoy her and it means I can get the suspension I want and get her lowered aswell. So I'll be going to FCS in the tank.

Not tried them out yet. Still gotta get these bloody snapped bolts out of my front hub! But they do get good reviews and they got a nice slick down the middle to keep ya car stable at high speeds apparently. Will let you know how I get on though

Parts have finally arrived!!!!!!!!!
Inside this lovely parcel that took shitty link ages to deliver!!!!! Is:
2 x 20mm spacers will be getting another set soon!
Wheel bolts
Gti6 calipers - got these as my current set need completely rebuilding and would cost to much to finish at the moment!
So plans for weekend:
Wire up fans
Get alloys on and finish paint.
Reassemble front end
But back bumper on
Hopefully will get most of it done!

Got the rear wheels on With there 20mm spacers, while getting wet in the process!
Me thinks they look pretty sweet! Rear drums need abit of touch up but they'll do for now just gotta decided how much I'm gonna space the fronts out now and if I'm painting spacers to match.

So I've finally got my back bumper back on but it's just not sitting right so gonna mess around with it tomorrow. Think arch liners are in the way.
Decided to clean the brakes up as they should be going in the next few weeks.
They are a nice blue but even with a good scrub there rusted to much so I've took them apart and going to give them a wire brush and then a few coats of silver paint I've got lying around. And give the sliders some new grease.
