After my mot had to do a few changes but just wondering which "look" looks the best to go with my car?
Morettes

Smoked Valeo

And comments like "smoked ones because i want your morettes" are not welcome

What front splitter is that?

Front splitter is a seat cordoba one cut down, needs sealing in the middle again as its messy.
Passed the mot, had to buy another cat because i couldnt find my old one! so all in all i paid £150 to pass inc parts. The morettes had to come out as the light pattern was all over the place apparently. they look fine on the wall and driving etc so i dont know. Car goes back in to hav strut brace fitted, braided hoses fitted , decat refitted and rear cav ARB refitted 
Ps if any one wants a brand new Cat 1.6 eco tec fitment let me know 
I cant decide one which lights to keep though as the morettes make it stand out from the other cars in my area.

They don't dazzle when you drive behind me that's fo' sho. And they do make it look mean when it comes flying up behind you 
Why selling the cat if you can't find the old one? Can't keep buying a new cat every year to pass

Because i know its in the garden somewhere and my dad lied to escape helping me out 
I think whilst the morettes are out ill do a bit of work on them and take the second inner lamp out and blank it off. Sounds chavy loud with induction without the cold air feed on the viper kit 
Oh and Rich im trying to persuade a friend with a black astra VXR to talk to you about getting the swirl marks out of his car and a few products. Might invite him to the next MASSIVE sosc meet we have

Smoked valeos, then you can sell me the morrettes.
Seriously tho, the smokes clean up the front end.

I think im going to blank off the other inner lamp and put them back in, need to buy some buggered morettes for some parts i think as the electrical leveller was broken. Ive just got to put up with the rattling exhaust untill it goes back in to refit the decat 
The gsi replica skirts still have to go on, been under my bed for about 8 months now

Hmmm got bored so went looking for some back mesh/vents to blank off the inner lamps on my morettes. Had an idea to look for some round speaker grills from car doors 
Found a golf mk4 with some and started modding and heres the end result, the left one has a cold air intake for my viper. Should look good when they are fitted 


will go fit them and see what they look like........

I wouldn't say they look horrid, but yes they do look like a very dated style these days.
I prefer the smoked.

End result = Ghetto mod 


Not bad for £1 eh. Think i like it because they add different shapes compared to the average corsa you see
