I heard that you can get smooth scuttle pannels, where can you get these from for a corsa b?
Was out at the body shop today and found out that its going to cost me a fortune to get my work done and it won't be ready for when Max Power come up to do our cruise scene - GUTTED.

Lol. I like yours more than the aftermarket smooth scuttles, coz yours still have those ridges in, they break it up a bit

I would have thought they would have been a good fit, its not like its a bodykit or anything!!
I really cant do this sort of thing myself

He just said ur not ment to do it to all the black plastic bits like arches,mirrors and that.
He said he would do it but it would peel. its not worth it if it is going to peel off.
It would be great if u could give me a step by step guide and as many pics as poss from diff angles.
