Advice on Euro Corsa styling needed

[Kie_Siff]

Hi there, I was wondering if someone can give me some advice on styling for a Corsa B 1994 3d to get that euro touch, as I'm fairly new to it all.
I was looking into 15" Ronal Turbo Alloys, good or bad choice?
I could also do with some advice on how low it should be, and would this need the arches rolled?
I am debating between black, or orange respray (its faded red at the moment, I'm sure many of you have been stumped by Vaux's red lmao) and I'd be grateful if anyone knew of a decent Spray shop in the Birmingham/Redditch area or general prices.
Sorry to be a pain, but I don't want to end up with a chavved looking corsa (aka, Halford attack)

Cheers!

Ye mate i was gonna do the Roals as well but if ur wanting to do eurod ur wanting all smoveee no spoiler sitting bowt 100mm on coilovers on sum 15s And wat ever u do DO not go orange man gotta be black or white

[Kie_Siff]

Cheers, Black it is I guess. Is there anyway of getting a flared arch effect without a body kit? Seen it on a few projects and a members 5door corsa, looked effective.

dont do ronal turbos, they dont suit corsa's very well
get something with dish
have alook at my wheels, alot of people liked them and said they were Euro
paint it black and do some smoothing
so depos/clear headlights
some all red rears
as for rolling arches its not that possible on them, can weld mk1 astra arches on and roll them, look really nice

thats my old one

and a picture of mine on its Revos
(needs to go lower which ill test tomorrow before i sell the wheels and suspension)

I thought the Ronal's looked quite smart on the Corsa, I couldnt find any other alloys that I liked for it (well I found two, but they were both over 1.2k, so I'll avoid them). I like the pic of your blue one Fire, although I'd keep mine without a spoiler I think. Thank you all for the advice/pics

smooth everything off, get sme wide band steelies and ure sorted, one im building at the mo is a gsi with bumpers arches spoiler aerial evrything smoothed off including all the lines in the bumpers, looks really round and smooth and its finished in ford frozen white,

Hi gav,
Did you spray the corsa yourself, or get it done professionally? I want a black finished corsa, but have rust spots on the bottom of the doors, and a single patch on the door, I am new to it all so I dont know if I have to sort them out myself or the spray shop will? Cheers.

Can't pm you, your box is full.

im gavs twin bro the corsa we painted had rust on the doors aswel we took the rust right back and prepd it for paintin! we painted it ourself its still getin done at the mo! il put piks up when its done and let u see!! i wouldnt do it urself unless u hav a compressor and the tools! maybe better gettin a bodyshop to do it but it can cost alot! il never pay some1 to paint my car i like to know how it gets done i cant trust other ppl most of them dont even care about the car and make a mess lmaolmaolmao

[Kie_Siff]

Cheers Jack, sounds ace.
Seeing as its in planning I'm popping through lots of different ideas at the moment, would flame red (I might get the outside alone done IF that is possible and cheaper) back to red, that won't fade, plus the bumpers coded. I really can't decide at the min, as to go a diff colour would require me to find all rust spots and sort them out/strip the car before hand? I ask far too many questions :P

Ronals look the bollocks on a corsa mate. R10's in black/siler finished witha lack corsa is a top combination. Go for the R10's, slam it. get the arches rolled and the hole car smooths, some moretts or angel eyes up front with tinted rear lights. job is a goodun. No tints, no body kits. just simple low and smooth and R10's!!!

what about white compomotives? im gettin them on my red mk2 GTE

Not really a euro rim.

[jack_8vt]

there the same as the ronals but in white!

[Benn]

Well no, Compomotive is the maker. I was thinking you ment mos tho.

[Kie_Siff]

My mate did a quick shop of it:


The alloys look a bit bigger than 15's in that but its a general idea. Phoned the insurance company, won't touch me on a 1.2 Corsa with lowering and alloys, but were willing to insure me on a 1.6 zetec S not long ago. Good logic!
