Re: My Project Log. Red Rocket
the difference is they're pressed aluminium and just look ALOT cleaner than standard plastic ones, the ones on mine are aluminium btw

And The Front Of Her ( Which Was Harder Than The Back )
AND THEN THE FINISHED PRODUCT ( FOR TODAY )
I Dont know if you can see the difference but its a massive difference!!
i had 2 random people off the street who i have never spoke to give me compliments!
one said she looks brand new! he couldnt believe it was same car!
and a woman asked me to do her car! and said mine looks great!
i f**k the front bumper up trying to debadge it! but doesnt look to bad in the picture!

She looks good don't she!!
I have a loud knocking sound from the engine and I looked and on ONE of the cam lobes has totally rounded!!
Anyone know were I can get a cam from?
And if I'm changing cam can I get a performance one?? Is that possible or not bother??

Re: My Project Log. Red Rocket
no, get a GSI spoiler it suits the car better, any other rear spoiler looks terrible and spoils the shape,

Re: My Project Log. Red Rocket
I currently don't like the look on the back of my corsa!
So going to look for a GSI spoiler!
And just made my lights black! ( which is illegal?? )
I'll take pictures tomorrow ?!!

Re: My Project Log. Red Rocket
Cheers mate! I was thinking on getting a black one?? And keeping it black?
And I'm thinking about tinting the back 3 windows black!
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B005GDY ... 097&sr=8-2
Will that look poo?
I was thinking because all my trims are black?
That's what I thought anyway!
Can my factory dampers be used on 40mm lower springs all round??
