...so thought I'd post some updated pics since the car has been through a change or two.
I know the rear lights won't be to everyones taste but I like them 
Plans eventually are to lower it and get either some Nimrods or 180 wheels.
C&C welcomes

Looking pretty good that, will look good once lowered (how much you thinking? I'd say 40mm. Even though slammage is my taste.  ) Get the Nimrods, they're nice wheels. To get the tinted sides and rears working, i'd go and get the fogs and headlights to match too personally. But it looks clean.

Nimrods will look smart. However... I do have a set of 17s that will look even better

Would like adjustable coilovers but bit outta my budget so probably go for 40mm once I have some bigger wheels.
I'd rather have the 180 wheels but once again, its all about the budget.
I am gonna do the spotlights and I have some headlight protectors that'll get tinted at some point too.

Last washed it a couple of weeks ago and it rained this morning while the car was out, hence why it looks quite bad

Fair enough.
Plans sound good, but I'm really not keen on the lights, not the fact they're smoked, but the fact they look sprayed.

Budgets are hard, should looks good though with the plans you have in mind for it. Hoping over the next year the Corsa is gonna get alot of mods done to it. Gonna be hated alot, cos i'm slamming it more. But yeah, if I stay in my current job it'll be slow progress, or if I get the new one. Faster. Just never know. You working now dude?

Only part time so hardly any monies for mods.
I'm probably gonna get rid next year for something abit slower if I don't have a better job. Petrol don't last long in a 2.0L
I'm thinking of getting a 106 GTi next if I need something slower.

Fair enough. But I think you'd find a 106 would waste just as much fuel though. Cos it has to rev that bit higher. Cos I go through an amazing amount of fuel atm, as i'm always A1, A421/8 to get to work, so doing 70 *cough* mph 5 days a week to Bedford. Does waste abit. Hoping i'll get this new job, cos i'll halve my mileage everyday, and it's country roads, so uses barely any fuel which is cool. What are you doing atm then? Is it warehouse work?

I want something thats smaller engine than 2.0L is what I mean.
A 1.6 16v would suit me just fine and the 106 GTi isn't bad on power.

Nah, flashing software on cameras at the mo. Only pays min. wage but it keeps me off the dole which is the main thing.
