It's OK if you go to the Omori site and get the parts number etc. they'll sort it out for you.
In other news, perhaps I am not insured, just got the documents through today and it makes no reference to the modifications I stated. Hope this doesn't become a long drawn out mess, but it means I'm not driving it around tomorrow like I hoped I would!

Non-update: Insurance all sorted, phew! Took it down to my favourite bodyshop the other day to get a quote on the flaky arches, I want all new metal welding in, paint etc. so overall the quote seems OK to me. Other than that it is pretty free of rust, a few speckles on the lower of a door etc. but that may be getting cured with a possible new paintjob. There was a twotone paintjob available for the Charmant where the top colour is metallic beige (same as I've got) and the bottom a lovely maroon/burgundy colour. Being that I have a "thing" for twotone paintjobs this may be the way to progress. However, so I don't feel absolutely redundant, I put some more wax on it. Have some photos.

looking good dude. I think you should find the rims you want and then set with the paint gun. It will be ok over the summer and then if yoy get some 8j wide rims you can flare the arch out a touch and get it all painted afterwards??!!

I returned home from work today to find two enormous boxes filled with crazy Japanese newspapers! It's crazy, there's all sorts in, pictures of dogs and all sorts. Pretty mad. Oh yeah and I found 4 of these inside: As worn by this fine automobile: DUNN DUNN DUNNNNNN

If I knew you were going to take such a rubbish photo I'd have charged you twice as much ;D ;D Only joking, as long as you get some decent pics when they're on I'll let you off
