Also quick update. Recieved my two new wing mirrors and CD player so got them fitted
Wing mirrors where kinda odd as one was silver and one was black , i thought the black one was broke so i replaced both to black but as replaced the black broken one , i just push the mirror into place its its fine so didnt really need a new replacement after all. Means i have two wing mirrors to sell now haha
Also the Corsa came with the factory CDR 500 cd player from Delco Electronics , the women who had the car before me had lost the code already and had it decoded. She now forgot where she put the second decoded key so i would have had to go to manufacture dept to sort it but insted ive decided to buy a Sony CDX-A360 from Argos its mint though pictures dont really do it justice
 Arrived at 9 0 am i was kinda  when i opened the door to find a DHL guy was there haha
 Nice 
 Before Passenger side
 Before Driver Side
Ill get pics of now in a bit too cold haha

Help update
Got a better pic of Cd player, comparing to one came with car
Had a good look around car today , checked oil and believe a Headgasket could be on order already . Also , need a new battery as it has the original still so advise any decent batteries please
Plus i think someone has tried spraying it gold  so ideas how to get rid of the poor attempt
Ill probably need a drivers window as theres a mark on it , but could it be repaired because its just a surface mark not scratch 
A little bit of engine cleaning i think
Door strip needs a little sticking for time being
Boot liner too
and has anyone got a rear brand new plate light or where could find one ??
Ideas guys please !

take it your sticking with the black trim and silver contrast then. Personaly i would either find some black rims, or buy some and then paint black to go with the contrast theme, then get it lowered, its suprising how much better it will make it look. Are you planning on an sri spoiler? ? ? would be interesting left off imo.

if your buying more audio stuff, check www.caraudiosecrety.co.uk before, they are cheaper than any other retail group.
the gold finish on the engine is a water/moisture protectent that someone has appleid, dont worry it there for a reason. though you can remove it with some elbow grease

Battery is completly flat , battery has many dead cells so really could do with new one. So decided to buy a Varta Battery once I get paid , Checked Oil and there was " gunge" best way to explain collected on top which lets us know theres water in gasket  so need a new one .
Sowdan , i decided to keep with black trim but will one day spray it black depending on money issues

Long time since Project was back, but ive had Insurance , tax & mot to cover so no money spent on car untill monday aka Payday ! haha
Went straight onto ebay and purchased debadged Grille Get picture when I get car back off my dad. Bought some Smoked Side repeaters with this * Chrome look whilst not in use , then flash amber when on hmm*. Ill have to wait nd see about them
Purchased *Corsasport.co.uk* window decals from Splatgraphix. Recomend like many others highly .
Sorted the Battery by buying a Varta made starting alot easier
And the Gung at the top of gasket has cleared, must of been just condensaton especially with it stood at a dealership for a while
Finally bought a newer aerial, the original is a telephone mast i swere so bought bee sting.
