Hi everyone I am new on corsa sport although I have looked through a lot of project threads so decided to start my own. It is a corsa b in Arden blue with the 1.2 8v not the fastest I know lol but gets me about lol i have owned the car for about 2 months now and when I got the car it was a right state! It was covered in stupid stickers with a huge sunstrip had a penguin hanging out the back tow bar all the tyres had about 10psi in them also no back box and ithad a cold air feed on the wrong side of the car facing the the spark plugs? Good points are it has service history from 5000 miles and the body work is mint also has cav slabs and lowered 60mm all round on gmax setup.













There all the pics of when I first got the car i have now taken all the stickers off, killed the penguin, removed the air feed as it was pointless. Haven't really changed much except but calibra leathers in, 3" rolled tip back box and gm mudflaps but will upload more pics later on

Right got some pictures of how car stands now as you can see it's pretty much standard except the alloys





Put the mudflaps on and the backbox! Gave it a polish at work and comes up okay. comments appreciated as I'm not really sure what to do with it now guys??

Cold air feed that low in the bumper is a bad idea
