So I started with the mounting plates for the speedo cluster like this:
Then next up like this:
Finally a lick of paint. The bonnet catch and engine mounting plate got the same treatment and the breather also.
I also got the wheels from Sean. Fitted them looks good.
The poor front indicators was fitted the wrong side to the wrong side round.
They were stripped and checked and then fitted back with flat and spring washers to keep them in place.

Okay so after fiddling with some bits and getting the engine running not too long ago.
I have fitted one of the 12 inch slot mags and this is the result.
RE: Clubman reincarnated - Vinay-RS - 04-10-2016
Those mags don't look too bad at all. Suit the car quite nicely.

Wheels look good on there.
RE: Clubman reincarnated - Sean1380 - 04-11-2016
12" wheels ALWAYS look good on a Clubby - u didnt waste time in fitting them
RE: Clubman reincarnated - GTSPhil - 04-11-2016
No Sean I did not.
Took the car just now for a bit of a drive in the yard and it stops and goes very well indeed with the 8.4 inch brakes.
Just have to put interior back together finally then that project is done... for now....

So drove the car on wednesday and it was un-drivable, felt almost un-safe to drive.
Took it for wheel alignment with the new hubs and all, turns out the wheels was pointing out and away from the body.
After that it drives brilliantly again.
Just have to fit the grille and front bumper back and then she is sorted (just for you Tim)......
