Hi I'm Dave im really new to this site so go easy on me, I barely know much about cars lol, was just wondering what else i could do that would look good to my (well mine and my Partners) car Its Vauxhall Corsa gls 5 dr 1.4 I heard most dont like 5 drs eh? Well had it since nov 09 with 3 months mot but i had it MOT'ed as soon as i got it failed on just rust and loose rear light was like £150 to fix so wasnt to bad. Bought for £600 from £700 with tax till Jan 10. so wasnt bad deal. few things i wish to do is tidy up the wires in the back ideas please... lol and strip the dash and spray some interior parts (Red?) however my dash is being a pain to get off. Also wanna buy new hand brake and gear gaitors if anyone knows good places? anyways thanks for listening to my crap I'll put some pictures up... Btw I know it needs cleaning! any offers?
Spray the arches and bumpers black or colour coded?

I have sprayed the arches gloss black I'll get some pics up soon and am gonna do bumpers too soon, also wanna spray more interior such as where dashboard is and more on passenger side but dont have right tools to get it out lol. btw how do you go about smoking side repeaters? anddd iunno if i want to debadge, people probs think im driving a 1 litre! and iunno what colour the car is exactly to do colour coded mirrors, was thinking of getting m3 style or no?

where abwt in devon you from sorry?
edit: just remembered your from paignton lol, was you down exeter last night by any chance? i saw a corsa 5 door in your colour, black wheels of some sort ..

and smoked side reps = http://corsacentre.com/Nova%20corsa%20v ... =5&CarID=1
or if you got tinting spray, then just pop your orange repeaters out, spray the tint on the inside, put them back on :)

i wouldnt get m3 mirrors tbh, i dont like em, if any get DTM ones, look more stealthy and mean from the front IMO lol, but rememeber with aftermarker mirrors the mirror will only be able to be adjusted by using using your hand to move the glass, because the manual stick to control them won't fit with the aftermarket mirrors lol
