Well after tonnes and tonnes of phone calls, emails and door knocking; I finally have my new rims!

LOL my IC isn't crooked... just the way we have cut the front lip makes it look that way Maybe it's time to bring out the angle grinder again!

d00dz: yeah there was a set of lock nuts put in so that's cool Although, I have heard from a few people that the lock nuts from Tempe don't actually work

ecl: yeah, tell me about the farkin' wait ehh?

Well time to finish painting my eyelids See how they look with the new setup!

PS: d00dz and ecl, I'll see if I can string together that event for the 26/12/2005. Oh praise CALIPER DAY!
