  15. show me your adapters and could be interested. i just don't have the tools for making things like this but wish i did.... cool work..
     
  16. I love anyone who has that approach of i did it because i was told it couldent be done

    I was the first guy to fit 17 inch alloys to a lowered mk3 fiesta in the uk

    There was no rubbing at all but it drove like it was trying to follow a track it was awfull but i did it:)

    If people didnt push the boundries then we would all be driving silver euroboxes

  20. I love that front seat, I am thinking it might be the perfect way to go for my bus. The front seats are well past their best and my dog will love lying across that seat.
