I do them on a individual basis, so whenever anyone wants them i can do them. I just need the current plastic parts to mould into.
Id also do the first corsa b one cheap so that i can post up some pics and get more interest.

I moved my hazard and blocked the vents off. But ive got a motorised monitor that comes out. U need to chop away at the piping for the vents but since they r blocked off it aint that important. Have a go yourself, the hardest bit i found was smooving it all down. Dont skimp on the sanding, as you will regret it in the future, make the finish good
