i still love your car, you wouldnt beleive how many pictures i have of that scattered around, when i was building my last corsa you gave me inspiration, was the same as but had the x1's rather than v2's!!
why not have a really flakey finish to them, mega sparkle but a silver grey flake, i think it would look great!

yeh i do miss it, i saw it tonight as a mate of a mate bought it! hasnt drove it yet as he hasnt passed test, poor thing wanted a drive! i liked the v grill as i hadnt really seen it before!
gloss anthracite with silver flake, cost a £££ but will be nice
dark rims will look good on your green car!
or polish the spoke faces and spray the edges??

leave v2's as they are.
Get the masitaly's refurbed in a dark anthra or black colour..will look sweet.
Or get the prorace 2's..they will look quality on your car..
black is the way forward....
