My corsa b 1.0ltr project

Post by boarderjaymee »

i bought this 1.0ltr corsa b for £750 completely bog standard with 70,000 miles on the clock, not the greatest of deals.

but it was what i was looking for agees for haha.

current mods:

K&N performance air filter
sports exhaust (just backbox)
new spark plugs
xenon headlight bulbs
blue LED sidelights
Parcel shelf retrimmed in camoflage

Complete new sound system including:
head unit
new door speakers
new door tweeters
6x9's on parcel shelf
12" sub
amp

Exterior:

Corsa c sxi alloys (soon to be black hopefully)
GSI IRMSCHER wrap around spoiler (which im sanding and respraying atm)

By the way, in my pics my bumpers have faded to grey, but there now black again :)

Give me ideas on what i should do next guys, considering i want to keep the outside looking as standard as possible.

A really nice car you've got there. Maybe you could sort out your arches? (Get them back to factory black!) :)
