| Corsa WIP
i've got it on every other forum i use, so thought i may aswell stick it up on here even though i dont post that much....
when i got it, it looked like this,
looks lovely with it tiny wheels, and 4x4 stance...  
day or so later, i fitted wheels from my old nova and its suspension kit....
looking a bit better now.  
then came GSI dials and a leather Cali interior about a month later
more comfy that the ****e standard seats   
next up came a set of spax coilovers, that a lad was selling on corsasport for a bargin price of £250, brand new, so i couldn't refuse really 
when i put them off, had them at the lowest setting, bit too low to be honest  
next came a GSI Spoiler and some Depo smoked headlights
also raised the front up a little, sits much nicer now  
purchased a gsi front bumper and gave it a lick of grey paint to see if i like it or not
still unsure as of this moment not, it has got a grill on it also, but not pic with it fitted 
finally the engine... still sat in its cav donor car at the mo, cant be bother stripping it in the cold, will start this soon though   
thats all for now, will update when i have progressed some more  |

| cav looks pretty clean lol
but thats no excuse to save its sorry ass from going into something more useable.
oh, and i quite like the standard front bumper...might be the pale shade of grey though ruining the look of the gsi front.

| looks real good.
I would leave the merit badges on along with leaving the bumpers black for a sleeper look.
Whats your plans for the bodywork / appearance of the corsa?
Assume / hope your robbing the brakes from the Cav? | |
