Hi all just joined this site, after a bit of advice on furter mods to do to my corsa.......
Ive recently bought a P reg 1.4 16v sport, it already had a decent stainless steel exhaust, painted brakes and back calipers, and is lowered 40mm all round, and has the wiper removed from the boot. All i have done myself so far is fit and induction kit and clear indicators off the newer corsa's, and removed the red bump strip and replaced it with a black one and changed the passenger side lock for a de-locked handle from a rear door of an astra. All i can think further to do is to do the rear lights black and get the black plastics painted black to match the car and was considering getting some gsi sideskirts and maybe bumpers. I also saw some wide arches on ebay but dont know if they will fit ok with the standard bumpers. ( Anyone know about this????)
Will upload some pics as soon as i get some, any other ideas would be appreciated

Cheers, im looking to do the panels of the interior black and maybe the roof (not to sure yet), im goin to keep the kit thats already on asits just easier tbh, thanks for feedback.
do not paint the strips the same colour as car it makes the car look puny and filth, tint ur lights black and make sure windows are tinted, and lower it 80 mm, im puttin pics up of mine soon dude if u want to av a look
Tbh i think 80 would be a bit 2low, gunna leave it al 40 for now. Cheers for comments guys. Am defo doing the lights (prob next week). Need some alloys, will ipload pics l8r, do i need to add a link (photobucket etc) or can i add it another way.
Its best not to drop the car to much as it means lower profile tyres and a hard ride due to this 40mm is more than enough for anyone ive only dropped 35mm and it looks fine.
40mm is the perfect drop... if not a bit much. Get some alloys for sure
If your going to paint you bumpers... you may as well do a proper colour coding... im presuming your car is black, so do them gloss black
