My sort-of restoration

looks great mate! If your after some BBS wheels, i have a mate with an e30 selling his rims. They are 14x6.5" ones, ET30. Look great on a mk1, i have them on my LS. His arent in perfect condition but they would be cheap :-)

also, i think you should not listen to any of us on here and keep modding the way you are. we all like to dream about our own cars and make suggestions ofcourse, but i reckon you'll do a top notch job on this little mk1 without any input from here :-)

If you need a panel beater to take on some work let me know, my best mate just opend up his own shop in Tullamarine, not far from where your at.

Just keep heading down the path you're on mate. You're doing a fantastic job. Don't let anyone tell you different. :cool:

After all the change, i think it looks a lot better with the original black mirrors.

Thats mint bro. :P:P

Dude dont be lazy, paint them mirros with black plastic paint and replace thouse rusty screws!!!!

They don't need painting if you ask me. They look fine. Just get some new screws and you're sweet dude. :)

Boat shops are a good source of Stainless Self Tapping Screws.

Keep up the good work.

AHAHHAHA!
i didnt even notice the screws to be honest, it was just the monent i suppose. the mirrors were really dirty and cleaned them for an hour haha. but i doubt they need a spray, they are in good condition.
All it needs now is jsut the door rubbers in and a back bumper and some other little touches. Wash it all and clean it down and im ready for DUBFEST. :D:D:D:D
