i think it was about £4 on ebay with few quid postage
easy to fit, just line it up and stick it on lol, mine peeled off on the bottom a bit though cuz the corsa fuel flap is slightly curved ain't it, so i just glued it back down
PRICER wrote:theirs loads of stuff you can do yet mate, drop her to the ground and stick some 15" alloys on her with a 40mm drop you'l be fine, orr do a 40mm drop with 17" alloys you will have to adjust your arches slightly but it will fit then you can get your mums hair dryer and heat up the plastic bump strips on the doors and pull them of for starters, then get new tinted black side repeaters to blend in with the black trim. then remove your back box and make up a new one by just getting a piece of pipe and welding an exhaust hanger bracket on it that will give you the sporty sound. or if you want to go the whole way, decat it, and get a larger centre exhaust and rear exhaust. buy a green cotton or k&n or Pipercross cone filter OR panel filter then drill the holes in the bottom of the air box, buy an after market steering wheel such as momo etc, take the badges of your boot and take the rear wiper of your boot and put a rubber bung in its place that will give you a smoother look on the rear. urmm oh but a rear strut brace and a front upper strut brace but make sure its a good one otherwise you wont notice any difference, oh also get hold of a corsa diesel front anti roll bar as they are larger than that on standard corsa's and SRI and GSI corsa's. some other stuff to but iv forgot lol
nah ain't lowering her due to livin out in the countryside = bad roads, and insurance, alloys = insurance and too expensive. ain't gunna de bump strip it cuz i like the black and red theme, plus the colour match would be so different as my cars faded quite a bit in some places as it is. im wanting to tint my side repeaters black anyway, just need to see if any of my mates got tinting spray spare that i can use, if not ill buy them off ebay. im not making a exhaust backbox out of pipe cuz thats just stupid. if i dont get a back box then yes, i will drill my air box. not bothering with after market steering wheel, no point for a 1.2. the boot is already debadged. and strut braces, on a 1.2? nah thanks, im never gunna drive it that hard that im gunna need strut bars :/ cheers
lmao talk about putting your car down. in that case you cant do anything to it then. i live in the country and my cars amazing even tho its only a 1.2 8v. lowered 40mm front and looks 60mm on the back now with shocks and springs, front and rear anti roll bar, with low profile tyres and its well good for doing a bit of night rallying after a night out! my caddys lowered to a sump scraper aswell and thats well nice to drive in the country lanes at night and the piece of pipe idea for a exhaust silencer isnt stupid, what do you think a centre race tube and de-cat is a piece of pipe where the catalytic converter and centre silencer used to be
TURBO LAG IS JUST FOREPLAY
2.0 16v GSI SPORT TWIN WEBER 45'S AND KENT CAMS :]
i just don't have the money, and don't intend to spend loads of performace mods on a 1.2 8v though as it won't be very noticeable, the mods cost alot alone, insurance will be a bitch cuz im only 17, and would rather just do some stuff to the exterior to make it stand out more than things under the bonnet etc, would rather save some of me money for a better faster car when i can in a couple years lol.
just redtop her! thats what im doing cheaper than buying a new car as you can buy the engine and kit for around in total pfft £450 and then its just drop her in and plug and play piece of piss i'l be doing mine couple of months, just on re-building her atm and getting the caddy to go through its MOT.

yeah id love to redtop her but im only 17 dude so its not going to happen for a lil while lol. and if i did, id need a full respray cuz the paintworks a bit faded in places n couple tiny dints would need to be pulled out and make the car nice n as new

cheers m8
tried to fit my pedal covers i had lying around aswell but theyre too wide so if i had them on, and braked, id like hit the accelerator at the same time so im keeping them off lol
gunna clean my car now, might get some better pics too
if you stay in the country you want it to handle better
you would be surprised how much better it handles when lowerd and strut braces on it
country roads can be fun
as for the faded parts just attack the car with t-cut or g3 polish will make the whole car same color
may take you time to do it thou
