Corsa Trip

Here is the car:

(Sorry for the low-quality, camera phone.)






Ignore the L plates, i've passed now.

I've done some mods to it already;

K&N Air filter.
And a new back box which needs fitting, (I was in the middle of doing it when something cropped up, so i'm running with no backbox atm!!)

I do need to debadge it.

That's it, for now. The back box should be fitted on Sunday. (Yeah, i'm still gonna drive it like it is as I like the sound of non-silenced )

Cheers,

Anyone know how easy it is to spray all bumpers gloss black?

[nath2905]

very hard, if your doin it with can's
they need very good plastic primer.. them loads of thick primer to fill the texture then some gloss black to make them shine, you want them like this ...?

[Mike_Parr]

Yeah, exactly like that. But, saying that, seeing that i'm kinda giong off the idea :/

Still looks nice, though. Was that your GSi rep?

[nath2905]

yh thats how it start back in the day
the orange 1 is the same car
wen i painted them blue thought it looked loads better IMO

[Mike_Parr]

Sorry to be a pain, you got a pic of them blue?

I was gonna go for a balck & blue theme, but in 2-minds to do it now. :/

i painted my bumpers etc with gloss black paint from poundland and looks good imo. car looking good mate.

[Mike_Parr]

My wing mirrors are starting to fade, should I colour code? I work in Halfrauds so getting the paint aint a problem. I'm presuming it's easier then the bumpers? Masking tape at the ready lmfao

[jordyp]

colour code them mate, just take the mirrors off mask the mirror and the black bit at the side, or you can take them apart ts really easy lol.

[Mike_Parr]

What primer?? and i've heard u need to dip them alcohol to get rid of the dirt or somethin?

[nath2905]
