went to get a new middle section fitted at a friends garage recently.

Heres the boot i went to collect a couple of hours away , was a perfect boot , not a mark on it.

old boot:


new boot:


the dents gone, no rust, it was perfect. i'm thinking of getting rid of the corsa stickers on the rear quarter. im also looking at getting some new wheels so i can lower the back some more, so if anyones got any softstars or similar for sale let me know :)

too many stickers IMO

Also im abit OCD but i think if a car gas black wheels it looks better with smoke lights all round, silver wheels=clear lights/standard. My thoughts anyway

UPDATE:

after a year of seaching and 4 doors later, ive finally found a mint 12v drivers door. i bought 3 other doors over the year which all turned out to be no good once you got the rubbing strip off, and with the ones without rubbing strips seeming rare, i was happy when i found this one 10 minutes away.




two doors i originally bought which turned out to be no good.


getting ready for the new door.


door fitted, without glass , lock etc..


bought some new lights too, what do you think?

thanks mate, i saw the sticker on a corsa C at a meet ,slammed to the deck and i thought it looked quality, so i ordered one off ebay, only a couple of quid.

cheers markb1234 i spend hours cleaning the car, washing , polishing, buffing etc... its a bit of a obsession really :o

anyway, ive refurbished the wheels as i put a couple of scuffs in them, went for a gun metal grey instead of silver again, and fitted my corsasport stickers.

Hi , ive been on here quite long so , im finally gonna put up my project log. for years ive been from the ford scene, now im over here aswell.



if it doesn’t make sense I appologise, im copying it from corsa-b.co.uk, this is gonna be the shortened version as the other one is serveral pages long, here are the main bits:


hey all, this is the car as it is at the moment, got a few things not currently on the car and and stuff being prepped. here's some pics of the car. i am happy with the bodywork, no major dents, no rust.
here it is:




ive got a boot spoiler being prepped and then sprayed to be put on, a pair of vauxhall back mudflaps to go on, clear indicators and ive put on a sri 3 spoke steering wheel in favour of the two spoke.
i know its more or less standard, but im hoping to get it done bit by bit, im on the look out for some alloys now, then maybe a colour coded kit, standard or not, havent quite decided yet. the interor is perfect apart from a bit of ripped stitching about 3cm long on the drivers seat.
in the post today came my new gaiter for handbrake and gearbox.
i will keep updating this as i progress.

fitted some terrible lexus lights,


changed the rear lights back to standard, looks much better!
fitted 15" Alloys with 4 brand new tyres
half fitted black interior, just waiting on getting the seats.



Changed the interior to the sport.

I then went fully colour coded bumpers, lowered the car 60 at the front, 40 to the rear on a full jamex setup ,Painted break callipers and a new back box




changed afew other bits which i dont have pics for, and it now looks like this :





since then, ive changed the boot as mine had a dent in, and refurbished the wheels in a gun metal grey.

thats more of less it, what do you think?
