what do you all think??

Love it mate really do the summer wheels look the dogs did you paint the grill or is it carbon?

Great Bora there will have to keep a look out for it at shows this coming year. Peter

cheers folks will be hitting the shows next year for real but it may look slightly different by then plans are in action

No its not carbon fella its painted with a matt black rattle can cheap but it looks good.

just curious, i got some new winter wheels and on a trial fit the run very close to the arch, currently got 17s running some stretch with 40 profile tires and have no problems, the new wheels are 17s again but have no stretch an are 45 profile tyres. i get maybe 20 mm clearance when on full lock, think this will cause problems?

car looks sick though mate. nice work fella

Well done mate its all good but, my opinion is that the Bora has got a hell of a boot.........you dont need the roof carrier I must say thats only my opinion all to their own!

looks well sweet fella I nearly got them wheels my self and they are your winters are the dishes laquared? and what size tyres are they?

and cheers to 07jettamk5 and wiggy for the comments

cheers, they are 17s i think 8j wide running 215 45 on them, think the dishes are laquered, they were on ebay and were pretty dirty so only gave them a clean but intend getting them furbed t some point maybe. they dishes have been polished and pretty sure they are laquered but not 100%. lol
