Well as most of you are aware I split the corsa into a million pieces and its now on various other corsa's around the UK!
I got my 1.8T TT back in Aug and been doing little bits and pieces to it in the mean time.
Original plan was to keep it clean, and leave it standard just enjoy a nice car, but that idea lasted all of 5mins.
Corsa & TT side by side
Gave it a quick was and wax one weekend, and drive out for a few pics:
First things to change were....
TT / Quattro / Audi, Badges off the rear
UK Legal pressed metal plates
TT Tax disc holder
Fitted a V6 rear valance to the rear bumper, then went and had the silencer taken out due to it being quiet as a mouse
De-Silencered Vid
That is only to put me on until I can justify £400 on a Milltek / Blueflame
I don't like things when they don't match so I ordered a LHD rear light cluster so that both driver and passenger side have the white spot
I have popped in a red LED bulb so it is still a fog light until I discover how to wire them up for twin reverse and twin fog using the brake lights.
After dropping my XE off with Ryan, he had been polishing C5 RSA with Poor Boys "Black Hole" so off I went and ordered some to try out myself:
I have got a spare alloy filler cap and new bolts as I plan on painting it the same colour as the car but didn't want to ruin my own incase I don't like it when its done Will be sending that to Dave @ SBS-Bodystyling soon to work his magic on!
Last night I ordered up a Quattro Sport front lower grill:
Will need a bit of cutting and fitting to go in the standard bumper, but will match the Quattro Sport bumper grill when I get my hands on one.
So much for leaving it how Audi intended, got plenty of ideas for it, so watch this space

Cheers fellas!
PB Black Hole is really good, but needs sealed with a wax or will not last 5mins!
I plan on getting it fully paint corrected after winter, as there is alot of light swirls up close which do my head in!
Alex, its great comfy fast and quiet not the same as the corsa's raw power but it can be driven much faster if wanted!
Plenty of plans Ste, just not sure how crazy I want to go. Ryan I hope so

Nice car mate, quite fond of these, alot of people describe them as hairdressers cars, oh if only they had been out in one. They handle the nuts!!!
My mates dad has an Evo 9 FQ340, and his mate has the TT 1.8T
Evo leaves it in the straights, but if the TT is ahead on corners, the Evo cant keep up! Plus the TT driver is better lol
Nice car though!!

i really liked your corsa and i think the TT is lovely
@Andy without being arsey, i would have thought the Evo would nail the TT in the corners but maybe struggle on straights due to lag
