Nice.

But they seem to be missing something.

I don't think you can just put those on the car and drive.

What is missing..... hmmmm :lol:

It's missing some of that rubbery stuff....
I just can't remember what they're called....

The wheels looks awesome though!

Well, wheel nuts for one. :lol:

Unless they're hiding in one of the boxes, though I kinda doubt it. Tim reckoned it would be unusual if they didn't come with them, but I had a hunch as they weren't mentioned anywhere.

Fak you. :lol:

Although it doesn't seem I have to pay the rest of the year. I think that only happens when they have to pay you out the agreed value. I am now, however, appreciating the fact of insurance companies that provide a loan car... as I will be requiring one for the 3 or so days that my car will be repaired in.

Also, these wheel nuts will fit correctly, yes?

The 1.5 thread?

Yeah.
Sweet, take a pic when you put the wheels and wheels nuts on.
Drive it to the park for some pics. :troll:

I'll just get Sahin down here, and he can pick the car up and take it there. :lol:

I think you implicitly mention my tyres more than I explicitly mention them!

Small upsates. Got a call from my insurance this afternoon. (very conveniently while I was on break). First place they booked me into doesn't deal with imports, so I've got to visit a couple places to get quotes to repair.

In regards to upgrading bumper-wise, if it isn't damaged enough to replace (which consensus seems to be it isn't) I can pay the difference to get another, which the insurance guy said probably wouldn't be much. We'll see.

Gonna do that public PM thing again. :lol: If you see this Dwayne and you have a spare moment, can you quote me shipping for the standard facelift bar?

Yeah, I'm hoping the gazillion hours of calculations don't let me down. Hoping I've got good clearance from stock struts.
