I may do and engine cover ins ome funky colour scheme not sure if i'm gonna fit it or not, cos i love the sexy shiny look. Gonna be getting chrome strut top covers, strut brace, header tank so should be a bit bling lol.
clidge - i paid a machine polisher...
everyone says turinis, they are nie but are as common as shite nowadays. I'd try something along the lines of superlegs/ultralegs and have a look through the gallery for ideas
Just an update on how the progress is coming along! not gonna post any proper pics till shes done though ;) Got all my engine bits back from the machine polisher today to go with all my yellow samco hosing and i'm mightly impressed. Was gonna get everything chrome plated but i've been told it...
its a self testing system so if everything is connected then the lights will go off. i know hodgey had a few problems with his and ended up sending the ecu off to be unlocked - who knows lol
the contractor one works slower and needs to be longer to fully work. so in removing it quickly it wont be as damaging for the wheels. wheras the conventional one in the green tub is literally acid lmao
white spririt or similar should remove it, but if the wheels arent proper powdercoated your really gonna need to respray all of them. which may be a blessing in disguise as you can get a custom colour sorted to make them a bit different.

they will be 4x100 and as they're off a corsa will be similar offset. so all you may need is the spigot for the centre which are only a few quid from the motor factor.
ask for the et number stamped on the inside spokes of the alloys.

tbh the decision over whether to buy a manifold or to send my semi-polsihed one depends on the quotes from the machine polisher as he may get better results from polishing the unpolised one. but anyway, i'm spamming.

buying a belt and begging favours to get it fitted would be worth a punt, but depends how much of a rush your in to get it fixed
