As some people may know me and a Member off Here Swapped cars Back in August.

I used to have this 1.4 16v:

Now I have Andy's old Red Sport and this is how it looked when I got it:

Then I Made a few changes and this is how the car stands now:

The Current Spec of the car:
1.6 16v x16xe.
Full De-cat Cobra Stainless Exhaust with 3.5 Outward Rolled Tale Pipe
Vectra V6 Brakes
Cav Cesaro wheels with Bridgestone Tyres
Gaz Fully Adjustable Coilovers approx -60mm (might be more)
Enclosed Induction kit
FK De-badged grill

Future plans are:
New Bonnet, As I dented the current one

Whiteline Rear ARB
New inlet manifold
Cams
4-2-1 or 4-1 Exhaust manifold.
Bucket seats and Harnesses

I would like to thank the Team at Vsport for Most of the work on the car, The advice and help from them has been superb as always.

Update:

Well as some people know, The car had a unfortunate meeting with the back of an Audi A4, the damage to a Corsa was shocking, compared to the Audi which didn't even have a scratch.

Pics of the car after the prang

So I set about repairing it, New slam panel bonnet and bumper, Remove Rust while front end was apart, and paint all gloss black

A cookie for whoever guesses where I got the bonnet from

And while its in the body shop to be sprayed, this could also happen

What do people think?
