Been meaning to do it for ages, but never got round to it:

Finally sorted the badging on the back of my car - I wanted to keep Vauxhall and Corsa but get rid of the amazing boast of "1.2 Twinport"

So when I first brought it:



Twinport Removed:



1.2 Removed and New Corsa Badge put in correct place:





Just neatens it up imo. Rear is almost done now. As you may have noticed I have tinkered with a few bits - only plans for rear now are a 1.8 Backbox and possibly remove the wiper at some point.

Apologies for the wanky driveway pics btw cba to take proper pics today

RileySport - Mines a 16v lol

Phil - Yes definitely mate - Just give me a shout - wont need to go to Pompey much atm as the gf has gone home from uni for summer

Cybermonkey - Cheers - Rear discs can wait for the moment lol - Think that 4 discs on a 1.2 would be overkill tbh!!
