I wish my Corsa was in as good condition as this! Looks brand new!

Very tastefully styled as well in my opinion. :D

Not much of an update but here's some photo whoring of how the cars sitting now before the Softstars :)

Coilovers are fitted and are sitting at about 70mm rear and about 80mm front i think,i also tinted my rear lights red,so much cleaner :)

Gave the car a good wash today with my new Meguiars shampoo,some SRP and some Dodo juice :D

Here's some pictures :thumbs:

Cheers Nath,really appreciate it :)

The rear lights are just my standard lights,there tinted with proper light red paint.Gave them a couple of coats and same again with lacquer.Make sure you don't do too many coats because the indicators won't flash orange :thumbs:

Update:
I've had the Softstars on for a while now but haven't updated so here's some pictures 8)
Also had the day off today so sprayed my roof pillars and roof lining,it looks so much better and the car feels smaller inside :D

In primer

Roof lining took 3 coats

pdate :

My wind deflectors and Laguna splitter arrived yesterday,so today i fitted them,i had to ask Darryl H for some help on the splitter,how to fit it etc :lol: I got there in the end and it looks awesome,really pleased with it,it's not scraped yet aswell :D

The wind deflectors was a right pain to fit aswell,really tight fit,did anyone else think this? :( Also when i want to wind the window down sometimes it comes down with it and then have to re-fit it :(


Here's some photos i got earlier,hope you like :thumbs:

Little update :

Today me and my dad should have been fitting my new alarm for the car but he forgot some tools from work and couldn't go get them because he'd wrung in sick :lol:

So then i was really bored so i decided to paint my passenger door handle with no lock because my other one was a locking one but it was chipped anyways and the interior handle surrounds :)

Also i recieved my Corsa C sunglasses case which i did black to match my black trims and roof liner :)

Little update :

My battery cover came today :) So straight after work i went and fitted it. Looks so much tidier aswell.

I'm going to be doing alot of work under the bonnet before PVS.I know it's only a 1.2 but i want to make it as clean as possible.I'm getting rocker cover powder coated silver,brand new header tank,some new hoses,chrome strut brace and a dam good clean,if there's anything else you reckon i could do let us know. :thumbs:

that means you need to go lower!!!!!!!
The wind deflectors was a right pain to fit aswell,really tight fit,did anyone else think this? :( Also when i want to wind the window down sometimes it comes down with it and then have to re-fit it :(
mine were really tight but never had them come down with the window :?
