Well i think it's about time that i should do one of these threads. So here it is.
When i got the my Corsa i gave it a very good clean and polish.
I changed the gray arch trims and even cleaned and polished behind my number plates.
Lightened up my dash a little,
Then the exhaust decided it wanted to be louder and broke for me....
Thats from the down pipe to the cat.
So i Bought a Pro Tech 4-1 manifold....
Then i booked my Corsa into Exhaust UK (top guys) and got a de-cat and back box.
Shiny
Then i got a slatted grille
Colour codeing........
Then i decided to start the stripping......
Getting carried away
Then came the High performance mods..........
Now my Corsa has some new shoes,
All of the stuff i have removed.........
Then at PVS...........
and for now for Vsport (cheers Dave).......
Every pic i take of my corsa goes in here,

I hope you enjoyed your stay,

Well i've decided that all these wires in my car weigh far to much. So i've removed what is not needed. That included the aerial, both of them. Yes that right. Came with a DAB aerial
Anyway here are a few pics

It's out in the rear and behind the drivers seat so far. Think that might be my job for this week end.

I have just bought my 1st real performance mod from Monstaaaa
Can't wait to fit it before the stoke meet.
It came with no fitting kit at all. I already have the gaskets ready.

I dont like the way you labelled it a track slag and the first bit of progress on the page is painted the dash a fancy colour
