hello, only recently started using this forum. So thought id make a project log of my corsa, this is how it looked when i got the car:
it's a 1.2 16v, i paid 350 for it. But did need a bit of work doing to it.
Then i ditched the chavy looking team dynamics and picked up some bbs rx's in white

yea it looks top notch, when i get round to doing mine, im gona buy the genuine paint mixed up for the pneumatic spray gun and hopefully get a real nice smooth finish. That how my alloys were refurbed, it wasnt the aresol job, was proper mixed paint made to order.

yeah colour coding does look nice and alot easier as the black trims just fade and go dull so easy.
