Hello, as mentioned I am new here,
I have a 1.0 corsa (its rapid )
I haven't got my license yet so no driving my corsa.

Anyway I think it will look sick wiv 19inch alloys a carzone bodykit and some neons bruvs, do you agree? twin 6 inch jap style exhausts will luk propa sik wiv sum of dem propa bad lexus lights.......



Only joking, I aim to lower it, badgeless grill, 16s of some sort probably depos and a few other little things,
It has got a cd player and 6x9s on the parcel shelf
I'm not keen on the colour but there must be someone with the same.
Anyway I will shut up now, here are a couple of pics, sorry about them being crap, only just got the car.....







Any ideas/suggestions?

Would a hair dryer have enough heat to get the badges off?
And how much am I looking at for a sport interior?

Thanks for the welcomes everyone, badges will be off tomorrow and I will get pictures up if I have time. I think the colour is growing on me, I think it would look nice really low on some chunky black alloys, yes or no?
