Just a little note about my plans for my corsa that have been under planning for about a year now i\'ve sorted every last maticulous detail for the project and have had to increase the budget by about five grand but it\'ll be worth it no matter what my parents say lol

First of all my corsa a p-reg grey one i\'ve had for about a year its in good nick (apart from me blowing the engine up!!) at the moment its just got an pipercross XL induction kit and a sportex oval exhaust along with OZ Supertourismo wheels in silver but there going soon because they are a bitch to clean

so what my plans are, basically i\'m going for the ultima wide kit, GSI spoiler and a total respray in white on the outside although i haven\'t got a final desicion on the new wheels yet. of course there will be tints as well.

The sound system will be totally re-done with Vibe speakers (2 x 15\" black air subs, rectangular 6x9s and some components) with Crunch amps, JVC head unit with a remote and DAB tuner so it should be loud and proud

In the future i\'ve got plans for the 2.0 16V coversion and a complete retrim of the interior but these will have to wait for another money injection stay tuned for pics of the work in progress

What do ya all think???

Vibe stuff is good, try and stick to one manufacturer. i\'ve got a pioneer head unit and 6x9\'s with a Vibe Blackbox amp (300w), and 10\" Fli (made by Vibe) active sub (800w) and it\'s so loud, try and start off with a good head unit with 2 or 3 amp outs.
