Replaced some of the missing side skirt clips today so they sit much better now 
Then gave it a quick wash, didn't really need it but thought why not paintwork is so smooth and beaded so well after the work I've done on it over the last few weeks

I used a Chemical Guys orange pad with some Menzerna PO203S, finished it with a Chemical Guys blue pad with some Menzerna PO 85RD.
Once it was machined I gave it a coat of Collinite 476

Anyone know if I can remove these bits around the steering column so I can fit the non airbag cowling? I read that DanCorsaSxi managed it on his but guessing his might be EPAS so maybe different?

No pictures yet but an update on progress, was using all last week while I was off which spurred me on to do a few jobs 
So far I have wired up the rear speakers so I now have a reasonable amount of sound from the stereo! I have a new headunit to go in but I need to mess with the cage before fitting.
Tonight I got cracking after work, jacked up and front end stripped, both wings off to be replaced (one rusty and one dented) with ones that came with the car. While it was up in the air managed to free both coilovers and raise the front end about 15cm, was nose diving before and pretty bad to drive, rubbed like a twat on every corner and every bump
Got a set of standard headlights so will fit them I think to replace the depo's and I have a new set of plates coming, got a few jobs to do on my TT next week so I fancy using the Corsa to get to and from work so I want it driving as nice as possible for Monday if I can

Possibly, need to have another look but temporarily fitted the original wheel back on, can't be doing with ignition cowlings and stuff missing, just annoys me
