Agree with him ^. Not keen on the bumper at all, a change would be a vast improvement. Bonnet and wheels look tidy though. I'd probably fit a spoiler sport/gsi too.

Update 28/07/09:

Today I bought and fitted my Tigra scuttle £5 from the local scrappie (Wont let me upload the pics of the scuttle so will get some more tomorrow)

And also fitted my spoiler. Then we had to drill through my bonnet to fit the jet washers I was cringing lol, was scared it would go wrong.. anyway, pics...







Then some pics of the bonnet so you can see the weaving

Well the wheels look good...

Just not sure on the rest of it yet, looks a bit too "bolted on" for my liking (just put on and doesn't match sort of thing)

Very nice mate!

Once I have the land again I think I will have to do an arden blue corsa

Still think once its fully colour coded including the spoiler, fit the gsi kit and slightly lower it more and it will look the nuts!!

Thanks mate, and yeah the spoiler will either be colour coded or the roof sprayed black to go with the bonnet and spoiler

Also the GSi kit will be fitted when its sprayed

Carbon door cards being fitted soon

looks good, the car looks tidy, change that front bumper to your gsi one though.
if your keeping the black spoiler id spray the arches and rub strips black to go with the wheels and bonnet.
carbon cards look really nice aswel mate,
i'd find it a pain to live with though not being able to lean on anything if your going on a long trip, i like that stick out bit to rest on
its coming along nicley now though

I really like the carbon Everywhere, but i have never got my head around the Dorr carbon...

I love it and if i had the money it would be everywhere but is it not a pain in the arse trying to open the windows + trying to close the doors?

Great thread... keep the carbon coming...
