Was thinking of spraying my bumpers satin black and getting some GSI side skirts and doing them satin black
All opinions welcome 
EDIT: The wheels are darker than that in reality

I wouldnt be keen, the black wheels/skirts/bumper combo would mean the wheels would just blend into the car and be invisible, IMO off course.

This did cross my mind but the alloys are actually a gun metal colour which seems to be difficult to capture on camera - they dont blend into the grey bumpers atm and I think that black would be a slightly better contrast - thanks for the comments tho

Needs lowering and smaller tyres. Didn't know you had those wheels already, they look better lighter 
Need to sort those arches as well.
And new number plates.

Theyre vaux wheels, 15" - got them from a scrap yard but only ever seen them on astras (mk3) and one cav since.
bumpers will be done next after getting the alloys back on, then skirts, then suspension. Its probably gonna take a while to get it all done, but im coming up to a placement year from uni so i'll have a bit more cash with any luck

yeah ive shopped it - this is escortgti's red corsa just changed to caribic blue
The wheels are like in my avatar atm, just need to repair a few scratches and get a tyre. Unfortunately i cant afford smaller tyres so the bigger ones will have to do for now. Colour will be staying the same
