cheers mate. ur rear springs... do they fall out as soon as u jack up the back of the car then? considering youve removed the adjusters. My springs are tiny :\ pretty sure theyll fall out going 2 fast over a speedbump lol.
well... i was going to keep them silver but decided to go for anthracite i saw a pic of a silver corsa slammed on anthracite cesaros which made me change my mind

No probs

My rear springs don't fall out actually,don't know why .Might have to cable tie them next time i've got wheels off to make sure they stay on.

Should look wicked in anthracite,going to do my bro's softstars that colour

haha just 4 u dan
Just got back from the same old spot i always take pictures in (theres fuck all places to take pics in luton, no decent scenery) loool
Anywayyyy, i fitted the speedlines at work along with 100mm rear lowering springs. It doesnt rub either which is shocking.
Not to sure if the springs will be staying, I LOVE the look of how slammed the car is, but the ride is facking AWFULLLLLL.
I cant feel my spine any more although it does handle like its on rails! Chucked it into a round about, got the rear end out just a little bit where as before it would just over steer like a mofo.
Il fit the centre caps once ive brought the speedline badges when payday comes
Heres the pics, let me no what u think n if youve got any ideas what to do next....
