Well I've not done a huge amount more to my SXi since just before PVS, but the other day I got bored and decided to take some inspiration from the SRi and paint my calipers red! I personally quite like them. Not a huge mod but yet another one of my subtle additions 





Opinions?

Don't usually like them red unless its something like brembo or 4 pots .etc but i think they work nice behind your wheels for some reason

Yeh I agree with you - I usually think it looks uber chav. But I saw a pic of an ultra blue SRi the other day and it inspired me So off to Halfords for a can of Hammerite I went!

Well its another mod?! As said - most of my mods are subtle atm - check my garage for the spec - its not 100% standard anymore tho as I've been previously told!

Why be so arsey? It may not seem a big mod to you but it's his car and he's proud of it, nothing wrong with showing it off.

all i was sayin is its just any excuse to post pics of a very standard looking corsa 
maybe one or two pics of the side of his car i can understand, but a front shot

Right ok...
Front has now got SRi lower grilles, new numberplates, and full RingSportz Blue Bulbs - hence not standard
Side has custom SXi badges, Red Calipers, Smoked Side Repeaters
Rear has started debadge, Smoked Rear Fogs
It is on SRi springs, has an Air Filter, beesting aerial and a couple of other bits done to it.
It may look standard to you but tbh there was no need to start gettin all arsey was there?!
As I have now stated several times my mods so far are subtle as my money is limited.
