What should i do about the bumpers? Spray all bottom half and back bottom half or leave like this

Also about lowering the car? i want to keep normal shocks, i don't feel the need to spend £150 on shocks for a corsa b haha

Any ideas, stickers, wheels ect

You pick up fk shocks for 80 quid for 4 shocks, if you drop 60 your going to bust the stanards anyway and for 150 you could have coilovers

As above you will break your shocks if you lower more than 40mm also you can get a good second hand set for around £60-£70 anyway... I would put a black splitter back on the front and leave the bumpers black :) and get some alloy wheels!

I'd respray the lower splitter black, as for lowering I wouldn't bother with adjustable coilovers unless your going on a track. I bought some 40mm shock/springs on ebay for my daughters 1.2 Corsa cost me £145 stance looked better without any loss of comfort
