Looking good mate, some spacers would bring the wheels out nicely too (not stanced). Try looking for a 98 glanza breaking and get the wheel off that, that’s what I put in my old one 

Possibly may look into the spacers has anyone fitted them on a Sr? Rang loads up no one ever gets back mate

Body panel collection coming along nicely almost complete now new outer sills arrived and I can confirm they are the same as oem read many posts saying you need fiesta ones etc had me a little worried but they are available in Eastern European countries these came from Estonia but at least we know they are available rather than trying to make other parts fit

It's a good thing for toyota to do! A door will come up soon, its always the same when you are looking for specific things but you will get one somewhere.

Nice finds, looking forward to the progress you wil be making. My passenger side door is also rusting, nearly starts looking like a common point. 

Mine is beyond repair mate maybe a good time to snap one up, fuel tanks seem to be the same
