Hi guys.
Picked up my Corsa B the other week, so here are some piccys.
Plans are to keep it subtle. But heyy who knows
Previously had 2 106's and a Saxo Furio.
(can upload pics if you would like to see)
Spec.
Has a scorpion exhaust what will probs be going soon.
Opel Tigra alloys with toyo tires.
And looks like the induction has the front bit missing.
Pics of the car.
Few bits i need to sort out.
Central locking's not working.
Needs a veryyy good valet inside and out.
New pacel shelf.
Spare wheel.
So first job was central locking..
Apart came the dash to reset it.
Job done. All working.
Will update as bits get done/i take pictures
Ben

Debadged will probs happen, if not ill spray the badge black.
Probs not lowered, harden the suspension is a probs though. Its well too bouncy!!
Yeah im not sure at how much the alloys are worth really, cause im not really a huge fan. they are too thin-spoke'd for my liking.
Ordered a few new bits today.
- H4 lights, hopefully ill be able to see abit further.
- A set of front and rear lights, got them for £18 inc. postage. So the rears are back up on ebay, if anyone needs them
and the fronts... well depo lookalike's are on the cards

imo lowering will make it handle and look better mate, and i like the alloys better than the nasty astra low spec ones
