Thanks a lot guys. Might have to get an airbag steering wheel now i know it fits ok.
Bit of an update January has been a bit of mad month for the corsa.
First thing that happened was having some retard on a scooter driving on my arse then went into the back of me at college  We agreed to do it outside of the insurance but he started messing me around so the insurance are dealing with it at now. Its due to go into the bodyshop in the next couple of weeks to have the bumper fully resprayed Having the bonnet resprayed at the same time as well because its badly stone chipped. If they have time a semi-smooth boot as well If not this will be done at a later date
Then if that wasnt bad enough I smashed into a massive pot hole one day on my was home  Popped my tyre and kerbed my speedline which i was really annoyed about. Claiming it back of the council though so its all good Had the wheel refurb at Lap-tab in birmingham. They done a great job on the wheel but the didnt refurb my centre cap for some reason so the colour is slightly different. Not too worried about it though.
mmm one mint speedline
New tyre fitted and on the car you can see the slight difference in the colour here
In between all this happening my corsas mot run out..nightmare! So to get it through the mot I slapped a couple of my spare sport alloys on it and raised my suspension back up to 60mm Looked shocking but got me from a to b.
It passed its mot first time with no advisories  I was chuffed!
Now the mot was passed I also had to renew my insurance. Gone with Quinn-Direct again as there were miles cheaper than anywhere else again The tax run out at the end of Jan as well so ive stuck 12 month ticket on it as well. My pockets are a lot lighter now lol!
Today I put the speedlines back on the car and lowered the supension back down ready for the west midlands meet tommorrow. Treated it to a good wash as well as it was a bit mucky!

Not sure what to do with the front to be honest I understand what people mean when they say it needs a little something extra doing. Just not 100% sure what at the moment. Doing a few photoshops atm to see what I could maybe do

Update time Decided today to go down to the DVLA office in birmingham to get my plate transfered over onto the car. Got the plates on straight away and took a couple of pics. Didnt clean it before hand or anything so it was a bit grubby!
Added a couple of little interior touches to the car as well. Got a set of alcantara gear gaiters and a Richbrook slant top gear knob I did buy an irmscher one for it but the colour didnt match my plastic so I sold it on. Prefer this one as well
Also its finally been booked in to have the bumper repaired after being messed around for weeks. Goes in on friday 13th

Looks very nice mate, but not into the spacing of the plate, could cause more attention by the police then its worth
