dude, its newer than my T reg and your car has rust bits
but like adam said, get a pressure washer on it and make those arches and bumpers black again, will look better for the time being Although those wheels are nice, like the brakes too

no primer is the result of the paint flaking, the muppets that did the arches shud have known that putting paint onto an unpreped and primed surface would result in that outcome!!!
I wud get on the blower and give them hell dude!

i have an L-reg merit too, that has no wiper rust and i dont take care of that
Who know anyways as i said its going in to have all that shite removed and smoothed
Not gunna be "mad" or "best corsa ever" or "most original"
Just how i like it
Wish id got those fuckin lenso wheels now tho
Oh i would never let them touch my car ever again, its obvious they cant paint properly so itd be useless ringing them cos they are never touching it again! Most of the ovverspray has come off now btw you should have seen it
