I have had my corsa for over a year now and thought it was about time i did a project/build on it.

its a star silver s reg corsa b. it started of life as a pure chav car which i am trying to change to somthing more sensible.

my first priority was to change the 17" wheels witch rubbed like fook due to the cut springs! so i just put the standard suspension on along with come 3 spoke alloys which i resprayed in satin black. and before any one says any thing im lowering it next month.
will up load pics as soon as i can.
