The Toffinator Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 Need some wheels for it (obviously) and just seen these, quite a nice design i think, and gunmetal with a polished lip. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/15-G-M-DRIFT-ALLOY-W...#ht_10684wt_782Also went out for a drive in it today, absolutely fantastic, feels really revvy, and its a hell of a lot quicker than my mams new diesel corsa! sounds like a little v-tec at the top of te rev range as well!Cant wait to pass Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Them wheels look really nice mate, i would go for them. There a change from everyone going for Black Speedlines or Rotas Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Toffinator Posted July 5, 2010 Author Share Posted July 5, 2010 Want to order some import plates, and just wondered if the right size is :import 1a 12in * 6in (304mm * 152mm)?Like this, and also if they are legal etc.Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Toffinator Posted July 5, 2010 Author Share Posted July 5, 2010 Or like this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ep_brad Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 the first number plate i think the second one just doesnt look right Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Toffinator Posted July 5, 2010 Author Share Posted July 5, 2010 Thats what i was thinking, but Amjad said there not legal as the font size is tiny! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 The 2nd plate looks 13x7! I wouldn't get import size on one line, you'd get a lot of stick from the feds as it's quite obvious the font is small. With 12x6 on two lines, it isn't as apparent Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Toffinator Posted July 6, 2010 Author Share Posted July 6, 2010 To get it on the second line, i just put a space beetween, is that how you did it? and yeh it looks bigger as it has the trd bit on, that wont be going on was just experimenting theres also a section for MOT legal plates, you can only put thin borders on and flags, so im debating on putting green border lines on it...And thanks everyone!

Amjad Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Any decisions on rims? I quite like the ones above! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Toffinator Posted July 8, 2010 Author Share Posted July 8, 2010 Any decisions on rims? I quite like the ones above! Im thinking the second ones at the moment, should go well with the colour and i love the design! need the suspension prioritized first. but driving test next few weeks, so need to save for a few more lessons and the entry fee!
