The Corsa Project. (**Long Term**)

[Benn]

Why the two boots? Like the red one.

Steels for banding?

[Daz H]

Like!! them wings look familiar sure I've seen them on the car there off somewhere, good find on the wheels too mate

Yeah off Daniel_corsas old car off CS cheers!

What's the plan with the wheels?

Have the car sitting on standard 15" black steels? If so

No I forgot to write that I found them as a group sale, planning on selling the silver boot and the steels :laugh:

The lugs on the skirts are trashed unfortunately! But spoke to Kieran and Sean off CS and they have doen it with bolts and screws so I can take them back off! Don't fancy glueing them on tbh!

*****UPDATE*****

Well today we've done some more work on the car, unfortunately it's not the skirts

Something has reacted in the laquer so we're sanding it back and re-doing them however whilst doing this we decided to prep the boot!

So this is what we started with:


an hour with a hair dryer got me to this:


Then a bit of masking:




Then a bit of sanding:




Now Tom will be priming it tomorrow for me

Then that should bring up anything that might need filling then it all starts again :lol:

Should have more photos tomorrow if he gets some photos across to me :wave:

[Todi-Corsa]

top work daz look good once the paint gets on it

On another note my s/skirts kept reacting like a royal pain when I was doing mine had to give them a really rubbing down was a reet pain

Anyways look forward to the next update

[Daz H]

Cheers mate! Yeah skirts seem to be a pain!

I'm looking forward to the next update too lol!

[Daz H]

*****UPDATE*****

Well had an eventful day today to say the least!

Went with a mate to go pick up his new car today but on the journey there we hit some black ice and ended up with a car looking like this:


Managed to get it all sorted out with the guy we were picking the new car up from so went home in his new car:


Then got back went to work and whilst I was there I got some photos of the boot!




Got to admit I think they are coming along well! Will be seeing them tomorrow so should be cool!

More updates tomorrow/monday!

[Todi-Corsa]

[Daz H]

Cheers!

[Daz H]

Went out this evening after looking at the boot/skirts to get some photos of the car with a couple of mates

Got no photos of the boot and skirts but they really are lookin great!










:wave:

[Benn]

Car looks awesome dude! Pics are great too.. Please please please take the glass out of the boot before you paint it tho.

Cheers Benn! We've tried to but unfortunately where it's been smoothed in it won't lift up at the top without the spoiler being removed! Really annoyed us both and I'm screwed if it smashes but it's the only way doing it without having to make a way of doing it to a new boot

[Benn]

Ah, bugger. That's odd and not good.

[CraigGSI]

nice job the car looks good mate
