Well as some of you know I have a new corsa now Was bored of Arden blue so got a flame red.

Before I start here's the arden that my brother now owns..







Now for the new corsa.. Its a 1.2 8 valve flame red trip. Before anyone points it out I know the license plate is Its dones 87k miles. Some of you will say I've downgraded, but in my eyes I haven't I wanted it to have as least electrics as possible.

Current mods

Full respray in flame red
Irmscher Soft stars 15"
Lowered on 40mm Nova springs
Headlamp protectors
Full sport interior
Momo carbon gear knob
Sport spoiler
Punto rear wiper
Kamei front grill.

Bad bits;

Crack in front bumper as you'll see on headlight pic
No power steering (no big deal)


Future plans:

Steinmetz front grill is on its way from Ryan (RCoughtrie) off C5RSA
White slabs going on
Depo headlights off arden
Rear lights off arden

That'll be it till PVS modification wise but will be under sealing car changing plates etc and prepping for engine conversion.




















Sean!

Looks great Sean! Very clean indeed. I'd be on the look out for a cheap private plate asap though

Plans sound spot on though mate. Looking forward to seeing it at PVS

Plate don't bother me just makes me laugh so will be staying for a while

@Mark, was bored of arden
@Curtis, you've got dibs if I go GSi
@Reeves, I prefer no power steering makes you concentrate more and cornering feels better.
@Shaun, thanks mate its not perfect but will be after a few things are sorted.

First update 12/02/2011

So today I fitted some of the parts off the arden onto my new corsa.

Smoked Depos
White slabs
All red rear lights

Pics;



Wheels on;



Headlights on, although you cant tell because the headlamp protectors were steamed up.









Both corsas together (Arden looks so nice with the soft stars on)

Then weather got nice so thought I'd wash and wax it, pics dont do it justice paint work really shines up



























And how the arden sits now. (Still looks really good IMO if not better..)

without wheels






Also does anyone know if its okay to jack the car up here? Under the wing.. Where the circle hole is





Sean!

Depends what your jack head is like, If its a tiny one, do it further in closer to the chassis leg, if its a bigger pad one, then anywhere there will be fine.
