arrgh this is what I've been after - decent pics of the PSG2 arches
I see you've cut the wings; is that as much as you cut or did you take more off eventually? or flare them etc
In the second pic (here) you can see the arch liner below the PSG2 arch - what have you done about that - cause its not in the later pics

will have been removed completely, or if not put up behind the arches, in the pic with the arches on with the arch liner hanging below, the arches are only taped on to get the lines so they wouldn't took them up behind would they
the arches are usually stuck on with a bonding substance such as tigerseal or sikaflex

i agree, it is a quite bad finish on those handles, should really have taken them off and sprayed seperately, what i would of done anyway

The colour is great a know i wanted it to be one off ... The boot lock i think is mint as well.. im sick of smoothed boots .. even though they look good i like this way better!
You want to hear something shocking... Its up for sale very soon.. basicly ive split with the mrs and have bills to pay.. id be after either a bmw or 2.0 corsa registered as a 1.2 or something..
Nice to get some feedback from guys who know corsa's
2.0 registered as a 1.2!!!!!!!!! plain stupidity

Id love to know which photo your looking at ... they all look great to me plus as i have mentioned thats straight after paint with no afterwork!
I urge you to come and have a look at the car then... The whole car looks like glass.. not one imperfection on it! And the handles look a damn site better now specialy wheny our looking at it with your own eyes and not a camera!
Paint job is 100% spot on!

can u not see what is wrong there apart from the handel, very very orange pealey, hopefully that can be sorted if the person can flat it all back enough and polish it up!
also there is a big bit of shit right in the middle there which they can get out!
also the bottom where the arch and sill has been sealed or filler is very rough!
and trust me i bet i could find a few imperfections if i saw the car in real life, im not saying its not nice cos the colour is ver nice but just check the whole car over and make sure its perfect before u hand over your wonga!

Oh yea, 2 other things. As the car is red, get the front bumper off and paint behind it with some black Hammerite or BBQ paint. Also, you might want to think about taking the front arch liners off as there ins't anything much holding them in... I understand if you don't though if the car is a daily driver
