Like the blue part to the front grill u painted V good idea!!!
Y didnt u make life easier for yr self and just undo the 3 nuts in the boot lid and wouldnt of had to omasked it all up.
Can u not find a good boot with spoiler from the scrappy?
Yea door handles b good to cc, make sure u use plastic primer 1st if u havent allready or theres a poss the paint will flake of easy.
My corsa project is same colour as yrs think its best color
Good luck

Hi m8,
Easiest way to wire brake light up is wat ever side the wire is easier to run down run it to 1 of the back lights
Find wat wire is the brake light wire and splice yr spoiler wire into the back light wire loom.
And obviously find a earth to.
Job done.
