k this is my first project so i;m taking things easy for now
i've got a red corsa b sxi had her for about 6 months now and not done anything to her apart from an induction kit

but this week i decided to get things started and got smoked my rearlights (lightly)
took the vauxhall corsa badges off the back, left the 16v on
fitted a debadged grille form lmf
and added a cherry bomb back box ( not sure what size it actually is)
here are some pics



i've got some calibra alloys which im gonna get refurbed in matt black still to fit but other than that i'm done for now,
unless anyones got any suggestions
although at the minute i'm on a tight budget as am at uni and my fiancees not very happy bout this
but yeah any comments or suggestions much appreciated

Not forgetting the Depo's

Or try and find, a plain black, stick on tax disc holder. I bought mine for 50p, and I think looks good because you can't see it, only the tax disc.

Is that an exhaust trim or actual back box?

Not sure on them mate, as they are more like stickers, than decals.
