Looks good. Offset looks spot on to me, would be fine without spacers, depends if you want camber though. Mine was offset perfect til I wanted camber and that obviously tucked the top of the rim right in, so ended up getting bigger spacers.
Might be an idea to start soaking your nuts in WD40 each night (so to speak) ready for Sunday ;]

Finally got the wheels on, in pouring rain....4 cups of tea later and im still freezing cold! But its worth it, wheels look awesome....if you ignore the arch gap lol! 
Still waiting on red center caps as they werent in stock when i bought the wheels, should be here soon though New wheel nuts are good aswell, need a special socket to remove them so theft proof and they look good! 
see...form and function 
Anywhooo
Perfect offset front and rear, who said you cant have wide wheels on a classic??????
Also waiting on clear front and side indicators, another lil touch

Yeah ive been looking into a manifold, what company should i look for? Yeah i went round to a mates last night, he's got a silver classic running around 450hp and made mine sound like an electric car lmao!!
Photoshop looks awesome! Really cant wait now, on tommorow!!!...as long as it all goes to plan!
Had a look at arch enemy, but theres no one local to me Think im just going to grind the lips off, seal and paint the inside of the arch to stop the rust. Quicker and hell of a lot cheaper!

the other ps looks quality but might b alittle unuseable on the roads today
and my manifold was an ebay borla replica i gave £110 new and the quality is unreal realy impressed (and that dont happen offen lol ) gives a mental sound and well worth every penny ! the rest of the exhaust is hayward n scott and is on par with the sound of a turbo !
i like the look of your rear box it reminds me of an old escort turbo scorpion box good old days.
