Yeah been looking at these bumpers more and now thinking not to bother, I'm gonna keep my eye out for a half decent gsi kit that don't cost an arm and a leg! for now I might get some skirts and paint the arches\bumper trim in anthracite

[essexjohn]

Weather not been good enough to do anything interesting to the car so just changed the side repeaters for clear ones as the black ones were so dark you couldn't see them when they were on!

[essexjohn]

got problems with my power steering, it wasn't working when i started car earlier and the battery light has come on the dash. suspect that the fan belt has gone but cant check as i need someone to push down on the bonnet while i pull the handle inside the car. sometimes think life would be easier if i rid a pushbike, then again it's way too cold not to drive!!

painted the middle of my centre caps black, gonna get 4 vectra boot badges to go on them. drive belt had come off so checked where it goes against my mums tigra and gonna sort it in the morning! few pics of centre caps for now:

Just a quick update, ordered some smoked rear lights so hopefully they get here soon and I can get them on. Need to sort out some laquer peel still but been in loads of pain with my back (split discs and shrinking vertabrae) so can't be leaning over car with the wet and dry!

[essexjohn]

Need some feedback on these wheels not sure if i should get them, I like them but not sure if the fake split rim bolts are a good look or not? any comments welcome.

i like the wheels you have on it already mate to be honest!! they're a bit rare aswell. why dont you try spraying them another colour or something if you want a different look.

[essexjohn]

I was gonna spray my wheels anthracite but I changed the colour in photoshop and they just looked dirty. I might get them other wheels and have the wheels that are on it as a winter set. I want bigger wheels really, I've been used to 18"s on my last car so my wheels on it look tiny to me!

like to wheels 2 m8, would not go for the other rims..
photoshop allways is a bit different than in real mayb a slight lighter color.
The rims you have look great on the corsa.

got some clear\tinted rear lights also tinted\depo'd some front lights and put in halo side lights haven't put them on yet but here are some pics for now:








Head Light tinted but without halo lights, not sure what way to put them on, halo or not?

[DanCorsaB91]

Looking good mate! how'd you get the lens away from the light housing?

[essexjohn]

When I got them the bloke had already sprayed one so I only needed to paint the other one but they come off if you remove the metal clips and heat the plastic round the glass with a heat gun

[PRICER]

no! no halo!! dont put halo's in!!!

[essexjohn]

no! no halo!! dont put halo's in!!!

That's what I'm thinking to be honest, they come with the headlights when i got them, they look a bit cheap and nasty I only got the headlights as they had already been pulled apart so I could depo them without destroying my lights!

[PRICER]

yea dont put the halo's in, leave them out, sell them on ebay and you could make some money back then
