I noticed you got 17's on ur car...

did you do the arch mods ???
If so, what needs to be done, and how difficult is it ???

don't wanna get set 17's, and then have probs with rubbing e.t.c.

Is it worth lowering dya think ??? If do, be even harder to get round palces...I scrape over everything at the mo, even ASDA !!!!! God knows what be like if lowered it ???

Ur opinion be appriciated as you've already been there, done that !:thumbs:

Desmond ?? Nope...Fraid not...

My paint was spot on...Had no "orange peel effect", nothing..Was crystal !!!
But I didn't laquer it, coz promised myself id polish it every week...Well I did...For bout a month !!! Then coz hadn't laquered it, bird shit ate into the paint work, and now the paint job looks very shabby close up !!!!

hence why got all new paint AND LAQUER to do it again when other bits been added !

Cool...Not at work today then...

I just wanna get the car finished....Got all the paint and laquer e.t.c. to do the re-spray, but got the spoiler, and side skirts, and bonnet vent to be fitted yet...

then I start work on the inside...

As soon as its done, I gonna sell it....Want a newer Corsa to do up..Still Corsa B though...

So did you get all ur ICE from halfords ?? Staff discount I spose..:D

exhaust?? yeah mate, fookin loud!! :lol: We do credit on wheels, come in and have a chat next time ur about and i'll explain it all. Tinting was done a place over maidstone call ultra film shield(i think, cant remember!!)

Yeah, Im always scouting round Halfords, and always see ya...

Yeah its the black heap on unfinished junk !

Tis better than it was though...It was that manky purple (atlantis blue)...

Only reason it aint finished is coz of wonga...No-one ever has enough do they !

Saved alot of money though, coz me and a mate have done all the work, including the re-spray, and the bad boy bonnet, and fitting and smoothing e.t.c.

I got another spoiler at home ready to fit, and a set of skirts, but I scrape everything at the moment as it is !!! Be even worse if I put the skirts on...REALLY REALLY need sum wheels though !!!!

Anything is better than the 13" steel rim I got at mo !!!! Thats why I wondered whether halfords do credit e.t.c. on their wheels...

The exhaust ??? Aint that loud is it ??? Only a Peco BB4 and 2ft of cherry bomb inplace of the front silencer ! Has an Pipercross, but don't think that makes much difference !

Where dya get ur tinting done ?

Likewise, if ya C me give me a shout !

So is the 1.4 in ur car at the mo ?
Why U thinking selling car ???

See U driving round Sitt...Ur usually parked round the meads, I see the car when go to my gf's..

Did you get most of ur bits through Halfords ? coz I just wondered how much them wheels were, and what type skirts you got...My car is long from being finished and looks cack at the mo, as it aint got any Alloys ???

Does halfords offer payment plans or Intrest free credit on their wheels ?
