From the moment I picked up your book until I laid it down, I was convulsed with laughter. Some day I intend reading it.

I can see what you mean, but there is no conversion it's just standard xeon lights fitted it must just be the way the light beam has been captured by the camera that give's it that look, sorry to disapoint

Just pain the spokes Satin black - leave the outer rims silver - they look dead cool like that.

Thought id give this a wee update!

My rocker gaskets started leaking and cam belt was due so the omega was taken off the road - that was back in january!  :shock: I've been driving the leon since.. but thats up for sale soon, so its time to get the MV6 back on the road!  :twisted:

Just before it came off the road i started fitting the optional extras it didnt have... namely rear sun blind and cruise control, it even had the vauxhall trafficmaster system fitted lol

Its lay pretty untouched since january. I took apart one of the headlights to find it was broken, so its sat like this all that time...





Rear arches are gettin a bit rusty too...




Decided its time to get my arse in gear!... got a set of facelift door trims that ive primered ready for paint, also dechromed the bumpers and on the lookout for new headlight. Coilovers will be getting fitted and car dropped, and wheels resprayed for the time being... ill eventually split the headlight and paint the insides black too!... and the engine bits will get done too obviously, with a bit of spraying/polishing work :lol:

Then its MOT time as it runs out next week!

Cant wait to have it back, getting bored of the LCR  ;D

Knew someone would pick up that i forgot to say that  ;D

Arches will be one of the first jobs done, luckily theres still a bit of solid metal under the rust, so as a temporary measure itll be getting rubbed down, kurust and zinc primer before a quick spray of paint - will get the bodywork all top notch at a later date, my uncles a spraypainter so covered on that ground  :y

Macduff - im not really a fan of the wheels either, never have been, they were on it when i got it... no cash to buy different ones so theyll have to do lol
