Suppose it depends what you use really, i get big fuck off rolls of stuff thru my work that we use on all new cars that get PDI'd i've always stuck mines on, i'm just a bit 'enthusiastic' when i put it on to be sure they dont come off.

you're supposed to heat the sticky pads up with a hairdryer before you attach them to the car/plate this way, the glue will soften and will stick to the car
looks like a great car for a 17 year old, exhaust and side skirts sounds goood too

the thing on the exhaust is just a cold air intake for the air filter

Looks good mate, you certainly arnt fucking about are you!!
Think the number plates spoil it, they look a bit chavvy and will attract unwanted attention from the police as theyre illegal.
If your mods arnt declared on your insurance id seriously thing about removing the plates for standard text ones.
Well done though mate, get them skirts fitted!

Very nice car. Ditto about the plates, unwanted attention from the law is never a good thing.

Ive bought an exhaust off corsa333 thanks for that by the way mate... now im looking for a set of side skirts for my gsi ...
I want replica side skirts because of the hassle of the different arches for the genuine skirts but if i can get the genuine skirts and arches for the right money i would be over the moon

the arches are the same mate jus chopped down shorter, if your skilled enuff mate maybe u cud get genuine skirts try them up against the car and adjust the length of the arches bit by bit, but then agen i gt sum gsi arches for around 50 pound for a full set from autovaux
