This is what she looked like when i got her :




Parts already on her (things done to her):
Rear GSI spoiler
Straight Through exhaust + Race tube (Loud + flames )
Matte black bonnet
15" wolfrace pro sprint alloys
1000W Edge Sub
Vibe 6x9's
Flame Kit <3
Spax Lowering springs (60mm)
De-Wipered
Rear Seats Removed

Got some Corsa C sport Alloys (yes i am aware my arch is missing it fell off lol) :


Some Pictures Of Her:







Then i Gave Her A Clean (Looks alot better ) :

















I am hoping to get the front GSI bumper & Fogs soon and get the corsa sport rear bumper (as it looks better then the rear gsi ) as my next set of bits


Now the New wheels are on im going to put my back seats in as it wont scrape (i would like passengars for my first car & for lifts ££)

Okay a slight draw back, after selling my wheels i decide to go to halfords and decide to buy some new door speakers to replace the blown 20 year old ones that were in there, and also to get a nearside brakelight bulb, so i go and pay for the bulb, next minute i get arrested, taken home, my house searched, then intierviewed.

HE'D ONLY GONE AND GAVE ME COUNTERFEIT MONEY. BECAREFUL WHEN BUYING/SELLING ITEMS GUYS!!

its horrible... i dont get alot of money and ive just gone and lost "80 and my wheels!
