right,dont know how many people know,but i have bought jacko's corsa. will be arriving friday(dont let me down jacko:lol ,so will then set apon getting it ready for pv.first thing i am going to need is a new bonnet as jacko sold the carbon fibre one ,so now it has no bonnet.really just lookin for any ideas really,what people think will look good,and what they think wont.(badboy extended,standard etc)also if anybody has any ideas on the sort of install they think would suit,will only be keeping the two front seats, then feel free to post your ideas.
now with this being the car it is it wont be to everyones taste,so please keep the petty nit picking to yourself.
please feel free to add anything you feel will suit the car,although i doubt i could go anymore extreme

What i'd do is.......
Box in the side skirts, with a side exit exhaust
Bad boy and extend the bonnet (with no scoop of anything)
Re-spray (what ever colour you want!)

One other consideration, if you want the bonnet the same colour as the car...how hard will it be 2 get a decent colour match? I quite like the carbon bonnet

go for another carbon one. unsure how you will get the bonnet to match the other paint otherwise. have seen a car with flip paint that had to have the door resprayed when it was damaged and it flipped totally different to the rest of it

I think he means extend them outwards so the sides of the car are wider. I love this car but can never look at it without thinking the front bumper looks loads wider than the sides of the car.... hence extending the skirts outwards would make it more in proportion with the front end?

Aye its sold 
BUT on to bigger and better things - hmmm M3 or F150 Lightening
You CAN match the paint, i smashed the front end once or twice on speed humps and had it blended in cant tell so its possible 
Ryan - entirely upto you mate, get a custom bonnet mad,e extended and badboy would look well though imo
