Flame Red 1.2 8v Breeze

Post by Copeland »

After owning a nova for a while i decided to upgrade
Bought This Corsa with 62000 on clock,
when i got it, it looked like this and i then got to work quite quickly

Image

Image

Image

Image

i firstly gave it a good clean, then lowered it approx 70mm on springs and gas shocks and then added a 3'' ashley back box, then it sat like this for a couple weeks, also had a slight accident after denting the rear quarter and front wing

Image

Image

Image

next i cut the centre box and cat out, due to scraping on every speed hump where i live, put a laguna splitter on and the put my white cavalier gsi slabs on due to like them more and gettin bored of the multi spokes, this is how it sits at present

Image

Image

lasted i have done is fitted gsi seats retrimmed in cream leather ,

My Next plans are to spray my wheels black, repsray the splitter, maybe lower the back more andsort the wing and quarter panel out, then find a gsi kit and buy some angel eyes and get some centre caps

all i can say is good luck in painting ur splitter its flexi rubber its not gunna stay on there also it will flake off and url be left with patches on it it will totaly ruin the look of the front by the way looks wicked u dont need to do much to make em look good keep it up :D
