right, i am calling this project C because it is my 3rd car (A=1, B=2, C=3 etc etc haha), and also it is a corsa C!
it is a silver 02 plate corsa c, 1.2 16v SXI.
it is going to be quite a long, on going thing.
my plans for it are to:
- make it subtle, smooth and low... kind of euro style which i know some of you may not like but ahh well!ha. (but we will see what happens, i may keep it higher atm to keep it more practical!)
- colour code exterior plastics / skirts.
- de badge / smooth
- alloy change
errrm i cant think of much more atm!lol.

heres some pics of how i got it





today i just de badged the boot (keeping the griffin badge tho)
went from this

to this ... (needs a clean! lol)

MUCH BETTER!
thats it for now.. cheers
