Corsa-B.uk - Vauxhall, Opel and Holden Corsa B Owners Club

so then the plans


standard bumpers with a laguna splitter smoothed in and the lines on the bumper etc smoothed and the back same again just smooth as possable, badboy bonnet and should be geting some corsa c sxi alloys for it next week or week after then thats it i think nice n subtle

interia

wanted a corsa c dash but tbh cant be arsed with the amount of moding etc is neded to fit

so staying with the std dash probly just colour coded or maybe flocked

and as for the rest (atm has this horrible grey ls interia) im after a sport or gsi one or am gonna see about getting them re trimmed in a suade like meterial

working ina boidyshop i already know that mate this is only surface rust and got my boss with 30 years experiance to chack it out he said just d/a it all out fill it and it will be fine .......

Ok no probs, If it was my car i would cut it out seen too many people do what you are planning to and it come back through....

look clean mate! not urs . lmao!

Rust is incurable, Anyone with the right mind would cut it out Like you said Simon! sounds like cowboys had hold of your astra befor you got it! but on the other hand rob16 does work in a bodyshop with a boss of 30 years experiance so who am i to judge???

well rubbed it down today geting a new bonnet as this one is hamerd it has been treated before as when we rubbed it down there was filler under there so got another one lined up! and the bit on the rear 1/4 inside the door shut, rubbed that down and its right down to bear metel thats ok!

btw thast dirt round it its not that ful area lol just along that line of the bodywork!

you shoulda posted this in the projects bit. pleased too see more people are doing more projects than just sending them off to other ppl payin stupid amounts of money to have things done.

lol

well just got a boot popper only thing is no instructions with it just a blue and green wire so any help as to where i wire these 2 would be grate and the genral fitting of one , also as i am smoothing my bumpers i will also be getting rid of the numberplate light that sticks up so just got some white LEDs and thought if i tone them down a bit(IE so they are not as bright) would these be OK to use as plate lights?

don\'t suppose any of you guys know or have a wiring diagram do you? as need to know about a few things like putting central locking and my alarm etc in and also will come in handy as the head unit was nicked (last owner) and they never put another one in just taped the wires up so i have unwrapped them all and its just a bundle or cut and crimped wires lol i know a bit about auto electrics but would prefer to know exacly what needs to be done b4 i start messing about with wires and ending up with a burnt out shell that once was a corsa lol!

cheers simon

and the boot is now near enogh done just needs filler over the top 2moz sanding then thats ready for paint all comeing toger and looking less sorry for its self now lol!

you need to get some pics up rob.

simon you seem to have done alot to your corsa any pics?
