Hey mate... sorry I didn't text back last night, was working and I don't have any credit.
How come you can't use the front door stuff?
Umm... Door mirrors and front fogs... £10?
185/14/55 tyres on steels. Almost new. £20
Rs7 style 15" wheels, with 195/15/50 tyres. £50
all body panels and in good conditions.
Interior is all a bluey sorta colour.. but velor.
Cant think of much things that be any good to you.... but any parts you need, mechanical or body everythings there

Re: My fiesta
HAHA lol ben, umm yea done them about 4-5 days agobut ive forgetten to put them up on, i was still making my mind up wether to keep them on, but i was willing to try since theyre only like £4 posted on the bay, yea they dont look that bad, but at times i think theyre a bit much for what my engine is lol, 1.3 and i have motorsport oriented rim strips on my wheels lol, but since im here i mays well add a few pics, also since im so sick of "your bonnets up/open) the raisers are coming out soon lol
they do look ok i guess (ps this last pic is blured, the strips aint that wide lol)
mind you i had a pure love moment earlier tonight, i was having a go of a mates Paxo VTR, and he drove mine, he went first down the road and i was looking fromt he side of the road, and i just love the look of my car when its moving etc, OOOF i thought, it looks sooo low lol and flat on the roads i didnt mind the paxo too much not as bad as my views on them before, id still not buy one but atleast theyre nippy, props would have owned my old si lol, but going round the bends, i dunno if its because mines lowered but the paxo had loads of body roll, i thought it was losing control at first lol but i was only going slow :S suspension is so soft uch, and the pedal box is so narrow lol, only thing i like was the sound and speed, he crashed it later tonight then and bust a tyre and his indicator stalk lol, had to escort him home :S, but anyway i love how my car looks on the road
also my new wishbones arrived today (only won them on the bay yesterday morning :O i was shock how quick they come) so it will come off the road for a few days whiel i take the whole from suspension system apart, as ill paint the struts, hub, drop links and steering link while im there, dont know whether to paint it all black or silver or yellow :S
i think the silver would look good in contrast with the black wishbones and perhaps struts, but only want to buy one tin of paint lol, ill update that when its all done
