Picked up my new car, its great, really nice drive, handles well, no complaints so far!! I love the colour! Not gonna any specific plans for it yet, but i may be tempted to fettle with it, keeping the subtle look tho!



And the old with the new, will be sad to see the old girl go, its been three years but just needed something quicker and newer!

Comments welcome.

Yeah its a 1.8, so much quicker than my old b. Few things to do to the b before i sell, gonna put standard wing mirrors back on, take all the ice out, and i have gsi door cards that will be swapped for the originals!
Dissapointed you couldnt tell its a 1.8 from the red calipers and rear discs!

Also i was thinking about the irmscher rear bumer but it says only up till 03, so wouldnt fit mine? Does any one know if they will be bringing out a new rear?
Or know of any other subtle rear bumpers?

the difference between the two corsa c's are the where the rear fogs are. my mate had this prob when fitting a kit on his 04 corsa c. the headlights are also slightly smaller on the later corsa c's

its a complete bumper. I have just brought the irsmcher front splitter for my corsa c '05 and i love it to bits next is to wait for money to colour code skirts and then wait for the release of a rear splitter or whole irmscher rear for '05 corsa onwards

The irmscher rear bumper is just a skirt fitting OVER a prefacelift rear bumper. it will not fit over a facelift bumper..
Also you cant just put a prefacelife bumper onto a facelift corsa...
You would need to change the rear arches too..
Also i am not sure if the fittings under the arches / rear bumper are the same so they might not even fit...
They won't be bringing out a skirt for the facelift car.
