Hi guys, I bought this car a few months back of pagey's sister. I left it looking standard then i thought why not start making it look better..
So far i have started by
60mm lowering springs
Corsa Gsi alloys in anthracite
Vauxhall wind deflectors
Vauxhall headlight protectors
Clear side repeaters

hi guys cheers for the comments
well i have been busy over the last week getting some new purchases for my car.
Brought my full Gsi body kit from 20xechris cheers mate bit of a road trip but cheers pagey for driving 6 hours to get it.
here are my new purchase's






Then the day after decided to start fitting them with the help of pagey,i fitted my new colour coded wing mirrors.



this what what it looked like before







And this is what it looked like after







I decided it looked good but still wasn't happy so i thought i would have a go at fitting the rear arches and bumper
before






After about an hour finally finshed









So it was coming along quiet nicely next on my list was to fit the front bumper



and the finshed product


my furture plans are to get the front arches on and get get my fog lights wired up,but i am happy with the way it is turning out at the moment
comments welcome.

I was thinking about doing this with mine, but I like the black bumpers on it.
Maybe spray the gsi kit satin black? think that would look decent!
