Thanks JedDy, Its a pre 97 front bumper with pre97 irmscher lower lip and irmscher front valance as found on CDX corsa's, the front valance has been plastic welded and smoothed to get rid of the number plate recess.

Yeah thanks mate, there are a few nice ones about now.

Darryl, Thanks buddy yeah it will be wound down a tad more, need to go about setting up the tracking/camber choose some tyres to get it all sitting how i want

Sean

Raz18, thank you will be lowered more but not as low as my previous 5 door due to the sump/down pipe and handling

Undersealing
The whole underside Has been treated & undersealed, arches as well. I still need to drop the tank and do that possibly paint it while its out






Think i'll opt for some new heatshields next month and some braided lines

Thanks John

Kizza cheers buddy


Been thinking about colour coding and re-spray either keep arches and bumper tops black with irmy lip painted or fully c c'd cant quite decide, had a quick session painting the lip anyways to see what it'll look like, slight colour miss match but the whole front bumper needs re-doing ideally from being knocked about in storage

That looks fantastic! I think fully colour coded would be too much personally Danny. Maybe a nice anthracite colour for the bumper tops and arches?

Something like that would be perfect. Roughly the same sort of shade as the plastics are currently unpainted would be a winner
