hi everyone, not been on here for ages!!!! been busy on flamingcorsa! done it up for my gf!!!! here is the pics!!!

this was after 1st makeover.........


then it had some work done and became this........


then it went back to standard red corsa........


then me and kt decided to do the car up once more for her!!!! so here we go.......
stripped the car

badboyed the bonnet with metal plates

filled over to get smooth

welded and smoothed top of boot


welded brackets on for side skirts and screwed skirts on after, filling with foam to make them solid and skimming over after with filler, front bumper fitted also


rear bumper fitted and smoothed arches, with jagcorsa making it look quite sad - hehe



sprayed front and rear lights with black paint with laquer in!!!



started painting parts in vw milkoviolet, kts choice of colour!!!

parts of the car in primer


car painted now with 2 coats of milko violet and 1 coat metal flakes then 3 layers of laquer!!! hygrolific flakes u cant c them i pics!!!


front bumper painted


rear bumper painted
, looking really shiny!!!!!

wheels ready for re furb and masked up



wheels in primer

wheels all painted up


car all back together with black mesh, forgot to mention the vents i did in wings with same curve as the lights!!! also lowered 60ml on shox and springs now! also smoothed off arieal etc!!!






finished inside also, with vectra half leather like before, 4 inch speakers in foot well, 5.25 focal components in doors, pioneer 8inch in rear seats and 8inch jl ib4 fre air subs on the shelf!!!!







all done now and was first day on road, i love the car and real proud of all the work on done on it!!! everything has been done by me!!! and to a good standard, u will c the car at trax, not flatted paintwork bakc yet so shine not perfect but still good!!! sure its not to all of your taste but wot u think????

here is wot its cost to take it from the red car to this:-

wheels£200
bodykit £300
spoiler £80
suspention £200
mesh £30
other meterials £50
tyres 4 new ones £190
paint including.... primer, hardener, top coat, thinners, laquer and metal flake £200

so basically its cost around £1200 for the complete makeover which i think is total bargin!!! love it

hope u like the pics!!! wot u think then??

IMO youve taken a dated kit and made it look awesome! Really good work there mate!

Wheels looks sweet ad the car colour is lush.

know wot u mean bout th evx it should go normal solid colour, like the normal yellow or orange they do!!!! just boring painting that colour - lol

the corsa taken me bout a month to do but thats inbetween working split shifts......9-3 and then 6-10 and only had about 5days off in last month or so!!!!

i love the wheels, i wanted them for my astra but kt ended up getting them cos they are corsa friendly offset!!! i just think they look so fresh being black and silver so much nicer than normal silver ones!! bit different also!

i think it all\ worked really well, girly colour that pastle + black contrast with wheels, lights and mesh makes it look agressive!

looks nice when sun hits it flakes go all mental but at same time cant c flakes when sunds not out which is nice! looks bold colour then!!

your right there... it all works really good on the car.
Although its a old style kit it doesnt look it, must be the colours.

yea kit is bit dated, i still like the kit and its cheep, car was to be done on budget!!! to show that u can do nice car up with not much money!!!

thinking of putting vents in bonnet like it had when it was green! black mesh them thought would make it look little more agressive!! iaz
