ok here is my s reg v corsa ive had since may 09
so got the car for my 17th birthday


then keep it standard for about a year then decided to start with a few small things
first was tints and colour coding


then got a set of alloys of a mate so sprayed them white also added a set of dtm's


after that i run it like that for about a month then set on lowering it 60mm all round also painted the front grills white



then took the car to trax


then upgraded the brakes to vented and grooved


added a white spoiler and got some adjustable springs for the rear as it was no way 60 on the back


sprayed the interior red added a full jbl gt5 install with a mono amp a 4 channel amp 2 6.5" in front 2 6*9 in the shelf and a 12" sub in the boot and a pioneer head unit



decided to tint my rear lights with a diffidence



then it stayed like this for a long time a few nice pics




then i got the gsi bumper and skirts for it next
