    I have a 5 door Corsa b, i'm getting it vinyl wrapped black early next year but i'm a little stuck on what else to do to it and in what order. Any suggestions would be great
    Thanks, Ashley.

    Re: What to do :/ ...

    what colour is it now? why waste money on changing it's colour?
    what are the tyres and suspension like? could they be improved? i bet they could. a well set up corsa b with sticky tyres should be a good little go-kart.
    unless you can get the wrapping done for nothing I wouldnt bother.
    what size engine is it? do you want a nob jockeys spasmo noisy exhaust or do you want to make it go and handle well?
    whats your budget?
    is this your first car?

    we need details here!

    Re: What to do :/ ...

    Sorry I should have give a few more details. At the moment its red but it looks old and warn so the colour change is needed really. I don't mind splashing out a little however I would perfer i to lok good than go fast if that makes sense. It's a 1.4, and yes it is my first car.

    Re: What to do :/ ...

    Yeah it would be around 800. But it paintwork is terrible at the moment, its faded, it looks pink and its beyond a polish and a clean. The wrap will make it look smart and then I wanted to do things like new exhaust, new lights .... What do you think ?

    Re: What to do :/ ...

    if you have the shape i think you have then they look horrid anyway, save your money a bit more and buy something a bit more tidy and better. You will only be throwing ya money away on a car like that, I know its your first car and we all know how much we all loved our first car but once you have had a few and realised what they are like you will be glad you saved the cash trust me.
