How much did you angle grind off the chassis?

Probably more trouble than their worth, but...here's the skyline lights kind of in
Does anyone know if its possible to get mx5 4x100 to vw 5x100 adapter spacers?
I need a pair for the rear
Hmm as they were designed for 4x100 vw, won't they be for bolts rather than studs? From the hub side?
Aw thanks dude, like I said a lot of trouble, and I'm still working on the space behind for them, but there's potential
Yup a £35 carport!
Turns out to run 4x100 to 5x100 adapters you have to take one stud out of the hub and replace with a longer one that runs through the adapter into the alloy. I'm annoyed as I really like the rear wheels I found cheap.
The rear kinda reminds me of first gen camero

Chucked a quick basecoat on just because I was bored seeing it in grey
Plenty of orange peel (getting used to new equipment)
I blame 306craig for "forcing me" to buy these....

Its a, "Chinese stallion"
£3 delivered lol
Yep just watch who you buy off on aliexpress, dhgate etc as there are some rogue sellers. Consider these sites as similar to amazon if your not familiar
Yea....I'm had having to rethink wheels, as I can't get any firms interested in adapting my hubs for the 5x100 rear wheels I got (really liked them as well)
The light units have turn signals, reverse just under the brake lights so I'm just going to cut some smaller holes for them and flush some lenses cut from the old Mazda units ( not sure if that's cough cough legal but whatever)
Its just gloss black

Great photography huh?
Well all wiring done and was fairly easy considering i have never done any before
New wheels come tomorrow to replace the 17x10 I decided not to fit
Meaning that these can go to a new home if anyone's interested, around £120 ish

Pretty much there....

List of things to do, find tyres that fit 15x9 alloys (seems impossible), sort a fancy exhaust, and a really good cut and polish, as its orange peel city at the mo.
I'm enjoying the build, but only able to get at it on the weekend. Missing those long summer days, nights draw in far to quick.
It does look pretty damn cool with the hardtop I'll remind myself to take some more up to date pictures soon
Cheers fatbloke, I had some 205 50 sat in the garage, so I got them stretched on
Surprised at how much it has filled the arches, glad I didn't order 50mm spacers!

Exhaust to sort (though I might wait till next mot)
And, hmm, I need some kind of flexible plastic/rubber to make arch liners
