We all start the same way, was one update a month if I was lucky when I had my Corsa too and I loved it and you appreciate it more when you can't really afford to do big mods all the time, plus you don't get bored as quick

How much did you pay for your Sportex exhaust and was it the full performance system?

Brilliant job by the way I'm loving the MHW lights

The back box was about £90 and the race-tube was £44, I bought them separately as I got them at different times but I believe it's a bit cheaper buying them together, good system though sounds nice.

And Thanks

Looking nice mate, why don't you make the griffin badge black for the boot lock. I think it would suit the car better than silver.

I was thinking of getting a sportex system myself but gonna wait till I do a few more things before, then noticed you had one!

What did you use to remove the rubber strips and clean the glue behind them if you don't mind me asking mate?

Same as debadging mate, hair dryer to heat them up till the glue is soft enough for you to lift the strip off just go slow so you don't take any paint off, then their will be loads of glue underneath I just heated the glue up sprayed some tar remover on it then used a plastic card to take it off

Get a project thread up

Cheers for the offer mate , I'm not sure now though I do want Opel but then I would need to change my mud flaps for Opel ones which is more money
