its not a case of knowing how to do it. some serious trial and error, and a good symettrical eye, thats the hardest bit. Getting both sides of the car identical when using filler.

right well its not something you can be given advice on, and if you were someone that knew what you were doing and how complex a job it is, then you wouldnt have asked

Its exactly the case, THIS ISNT JUST A BIT OF BODYWORK. Its gotta be 100% perfect because it is such a huge modification to the car. Alot of the corsa bodywork has to be cut away and restrengthened, a lot of packing involved, front bumper modifications to get it to fit properly, inside trim mods, anti roll bar needed modifcation.

so unless you are a bodyshop, this is a bodyshop job.
