Well after Joining the french side and getting bored i decided to return to the land of Vauxhalls and buy another Corsa B and this one popped up on a 2000 W reg 1.2 16v with 84,000 on the clock so wasnt bad at all. Bodywork and interior was quite chavvy with chrome number plates,Dustbin exhaust,Ripspeed stuff inside and badly painted bumpers etc... Sooo work started:

Before:








After:






Modifications:

15" White Astra Sport alloys
Koni Suspension 60mm Front and 80mm(ish) rear
Black Base model bumpers
Black Delocked Handles
Brand new Black Arches (Fronts still to be fitted, just ran out of time)
Gloss White Dimma Show cage
Dewipered
Decat exhaust & Rage backbox (soon to be changed)
Also Got a Genuine GSi/Sport spoiler in silver to replace the Gay replica one!

Still got a bit to do to it but im happy with it so far Cheers Scott

Such a vast improvement over its original look! Gotta say the smoked valeos have got my mind set on getting some depos or d.i.y headlights on mine very soon. Look so good against star silver compared to the standard ones ...
