Inspire me!
Hello all,
I'm after getting some wing and rear view mirror, they need to be SVA friendly, and preferably long stalk type as I have a full cage. I hear
some fo you are using motorbike type, any sources and pics would be nice.
I'm also considering getting some 15 inch alloys and tyres, my car is orange and black arches so I was thinking dark grey alloys, again any
ideas oh I'm running cortina front and escort rear so I can't remeber the 6j et thingy anyone re4member?
finnaly does anyone know where i can get some woven black mesh for my nose cone grill?
many thanks all

Black mesh; metal or plastic. B&Q?

For mirrors I used something like
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HONDA-C90-C-90-CUB-MIRROR-RIGHT-LEFT_W0QQitemZ130127912192QQihZ003QQcategoryZ10460QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem
they're adjustable for angle of vision and hold the mirror fairly high to get a good view over the rear wheel arches....
That person is taking the mick with the cost though, you can get a new pair for about 14 quid....
Infact, if you fancy going for some let me know I've got my SVA pair and an unused pair available (and cluttering up my garage)...

I saw some shelving at Ikea that was metal mesh, might be worth a try. Only about £10 for 3 or 4 shelves.

wheels size you need is 6x15 ET19
any Higher with the offset(ET) an the rears will rub on the trailing arms, lower ET would be better, as th ewheels will fill out the rear arches
better, not sure how a lower offset would affect the fornt though
