Hello,
I recently found your page and found it pretty good actually. I am from Greece ,20 years old and recently bought a corsa b , '99 model, 5 doors and would like to imporve the exterior and some parts of the interior... anything too pricey just to look better.... i really like DIY idea and do things on the car by myself, but unfortunately i don't really have the knowledge....Sooo some help would be appreciated...:P
First of all i would like to change the sound system of my car. i have already changed the head unit of the car . It's 4x50W PIONEER MVH-150UI . Now i would like to change the speakers on the front and add some 6x9's on the back... But i can't really understand if i have to add a amp , or what watt should the speakers (front and rear) should be in order to not have any problems using only the amp of the head unit....
Any help would be appreciated...I really like the idea to spent some time with my car.

Thank you :)

Cheap and easy modifications include; de badge, badgeless grill, colour code bumpers/arches, remove rear wiper, LEDs in clocks, side lights etc, pressed plates, paint calipers and drums, paint center console, tigra scuttle and coin tray, hid kit. The list is endless, there's always someone on here that will be able to give advice if you get stuck on anything.

actually my friend you spotted some of my ideas .... i really would like to paint my bumpers BUT they are the classic black trim bumpers and arches...Is it possible to paint them half in the colour of the car(white) and half black trim ?

Pretty sure you would be able to. Never did it myself but many on here have. You should start a project log and get some pics up :)
