Didnt make a project for my 1.2 8v corsa B but this was how I got it



And how it ended up



Sold to am4nf's sister on 20th January 2010, didnt even have it a year

But ive got something else and this will be my project



Not too sure on plans yet, putting my freshly painted cesaros on which are silver lower it, mabye colour code the arches and go from there

Took off the grill and mas planning on spraying it ultra blue, But I can't find ultra blue paint anywhere so this is what I've done this weekend






Theres some silicone(but stronger) inbetween the badge but il clean this up when it dries, Looking for a set of 16" alloys now to refurb, not got alot of money atm so this will be a slow project

Went to halfords last night to try and find a colour like arden blue for my calipers, I couldnt see a match so just bought hammerite smooth blue paint, heres the results :


Driver Side caliper before

Passenger Side caliper before

Driver Side caliper once painted

Passenger Side caliper once painted

Driver Side with wheel on

Passenger side with wheel on

Not the best pictures with the wheels on, looking forward to getting the wind deflectors and mudflaps on but not sure if im keeping this car long so dont want to waste money.

Fitted my team heko wind deflectors today, tried the mudflaps but not too sure on them





I then removed the rear badge and did a diy job of putting a metal bracket behind the boot so I could fill the holes that the badge goes into



Hopefully this will be painted soon but it may need sanded again

Looks good mate. Think the SRI Wheels would suit it more with them being white.

No updated this in a while, recieved a new badge for the rear of the car yesterday



Was only £5 and its different so im happy with it

Also found this on ebay, got it for £40 and they are £180+ new, fitted the cold air feed where the fog light goes




Got a backbox coming next week, future plans are to lower it on softstars
