Thanks mate, I know a lot of people don't like bodykits,I honestly tried to keep it simple, the idea was to build a smart looking car but with a different style, almost everything done on this Corsa was handmade, costing me nothng to do them,
For example the bonnet vents and the smoothed tailgate and Corsa holes. Simple little jobs that made a big difference to the overall look of the car,
I have to say my favourite mod of the project will have to be the bonnet, it just looks sexy! And the black with green flake really made the difference,
Thanks for the comments again everyone, Il keep you posted on my next jobs, basically the changing of the interior and the engine bay
