Silver Corsa. 75000 miles. VGC. 1.2 8v.. only pictures i had of it standerd.
got bored of driving around standerd so got some.. jamex suspension kit with 60mm springs. aero wipers. De-badged grill. black spoiler. new number plates. CD player. corsa sport alloys. left it at that for a while,
Then decided on a vinyl black roof and black spolier..
managed to get hold of some black leather's for it so put them in.. (no pics yet)
then came the black angel eyes swapped them for a set of sport alloys and £30.
kept it like that for a few weeks i aqquired a set of cav slabs in silver but the tyre wall was to big and wrecked the inside of the arches so there sat in my bedroom untill i get some money together...
next day decided to get old bumper and bonnet off and trial fit the new stuff with a bit of help from my mate craig... HE got to work while i watched and made tea 
got the bumper on after a few stuborn bolts
got new wheels... needs 2 new tyres as they are like slicks but put them on to see what there like....
then got depo's.. got rid of the black angel eyes.
the renault turbine wheels are going and being replaced with lenso rs5. just got to wait untill i can get them off a friends car as he needs a cheap set of 15's to get clearence over his brakes..
Bumper and Bonnet will be getting sprayed at the end of the month along with the front wings and arches..
comments and advice welcome

not updated in few months.. was going to scrap the project idea as my rear axle snapped so was going to sell the car but sourced one cheap and got it all fixed along with the brake shoes. cylinders and all cables etc....
i sold the fully smoothed front bumper then relised i wanted to carry on with a smooth 'ish' project so iv purchased a semi smoothed front bumper. bad boy bonnet and a fully smooth boot for an impressive £45
also got my stretched tyres fitted.
8000k HID kit.
80mm rear springs .. 60mm fronts.
iv not put the bumper or bonnet on yet as its in primer and didnt want to get it chipped or wrecked before respray which is hopefully in february when i get payed having the wings bonnet and bumper sprayed...
will also be getting the 4 arches brand new in primer which are NON textured these will be going gloss black with the rear bump strip.... pics will be up tommorow of all parts and how car stands now..
thanks for looking jord1991
