As Dan said above, the wheels are Compomotive RS17.0 Range RS1770's. The grille I made myself using an original grille and a piece cut out from an damaged grille.
The 406 my dad bought is now at the bodyshop as we are going to be stripping it there. I have already said that I'm going to be having the following stuff from it;
- Lighten Sunvisors
- Auto Dim Rear View Mirror
- Brembo 4pots setup
All will be fitted while the cars at the bodyshop =) So I will have a 266mm setup available to sell as soon as I have the Brembos fitted.

Haven't finished the roof yet as I've not had the time. I'm going to see if we can do it today/tomorrow as the weather needs to be just right or the glue doesn't work correctly.

Looking swish man, I may be tempted to do something similar to mine when I get it, consider it flattery lol
Have you found that the leatherette marks easily or is it fuss free?
cheers

Cheers mate.
I've not had since problem with the leatherette uptill now although I've not used the car on a day to day bases.
It's caught dust and it's very easy to clean.

What was the dimensions of the sheets of leatherette and faux suede you bought, I have ordered some samples from the net to see what is like before I buy, just wondering what size sheets you used

I bought 2 metres in length of Leatherette which had a width of 60". But the way my dad did it he managed to do all 4 door cards and the glovebox door in half a metre.
I bought 3 metres in length of Faux Suede which again had a width of 60". I've got 2 metres put away for the roof and the rest of the materials been used to do the a + b pillars and also the fuseboard cover with plenty left over.

Well if you have plenty left over after doing the roof as well, on a station wagon, I'm sure I woud be aright with the sam measurements on a 3 door?
just thought I would ask you about this because the way it has turned out for you is really impressive
