Well i have been a member for a while now and thought seemings as tho im doing a project id put it on here lol.

Here are a couple of pics of my 1st project.









Afer owning it for over 4 years i thought it was about time to get something quicker so i gave it to the gf and decided to buy a corsa gsi.

Here it is when i brought it









Anyway after i took it for a mot back came the long list of failures, I was gonna give up and get rid but decided that it would make another good project so after buying a recon engine and having all the usual welding in places done it was road worthy lol.

The plan was to just do subtle modifications and mainly engine work but then on christmas day going to my sisters i had a run in with a fox.




So i now had to get the front bumper repaired so i decided to cut it out and smooth it.

Then i got rid of the standard gsi alloys and put some new 15" kei racing alloys on and also had my windows tinted.



I also brought some morettes off some guy in stafford and fitted them aswell you can also see my front bumper aswell after the repair lol.



I will add some more and carry on the project when i get home.
