  18. thanks for the custom. I don't don any kits for the fiesta, but if you need anything just drop me a pm. looking forward to see this car develop
  19. the end of the day the panel are not fit for purpose. show them the pics, and get them to send another pair, they probably wont want them back. and if they do they will have to cover the cost. that's just business
  20. I brought some recently and they didnt look like that. send them back and get some more.
  21. I think you need to think what you want to do with the wheels. if you plan on selling them.in the future then dont refurb them as you will.not get your money back. if you intend to keep them long term then spend the money.
  22. Nice, what plans do you have for her?
  23. As above please - condition is not important as long as it is complete - closer to Bedfordshire / Hertfordshire the better thanks in advance
