Colin, I never asked what people think about it if your read my posts, and i beileve its been a bit more than a month than I posted progress pics of my CORSA on a CORSA website, peoples views are taken into consideration as it was recomended to take off the bonnet graffic, sunstrip and placing sxi skirts on, which have been done which is another reason why I posted the pics.

Yes but putting it on a public forum you do expect people to comment on it - Im just trying to point out that the stickers do NOTHING for it and it would look very nice colour coded

Yes it looks different but it looks Different - most people who have any taste have agreed

Danny_corsaC off hear used to have a corsa c in the same colour which was colour coded with the same front, to be honest the made me wanna puke but he liked it so goof for him. as I said im really happy with my car now and it will probably stay how it is for a little while. Although I may get the rims done darker.

Its supposed to be rally replica-ish

Yellow Stickers, are vauxhall Motorsport Logo's
Red Tow hook, as all Rally cars have so you can find it easily
White wheels: Self explanitory
Rear window sticker, again with the rally theme

As with the Vauxhall Logo's and stickers. Hes gone with a theme, but adapted it to his likings.

Admittedly he's gonna get critisism: i give him enough already, but i think the post was for constructive critisism, not a slating .

i hardly slated him really.

I feel the refererence of a 1.2 corsa with a few stickers on it, to word 'rally slag' is wrong. If it were a rally car, or indeed an attempt to look/drive simiar to a rally car, it would be stripped, stickered all over (sponsored) and have a proper engine.

Looks good, although Id be tempted to add a bit of white in there. Get some sort of white design going around the car to make it a bit more rallyish. Also dont just put stickers on, make sure you use the parts thats advertised on your car and think about the bodywork as a whole and put them in good places.

Keep it up mate

Colour code everything blue, lose the front red toe tie - to blue - and the yellow stickers as they don't go.

All - in - all I like it

Admittedly there are things i'd change, not sure if my comments are welcome but i'll give them a mention..

I'd take the stickers off as they dont do much for the car, dont look like the real sponsors if you know what i mean, just look like cheap halfords stuff.

I'd loose the Ned sticker - I find it hard to see why you dont understand why it NEEDS to be removed

The red ring at the front.... I understand your principles and wanna stand up cos no one else has got one etc etc..... but it is only "a bit of a rally slag" so why keep a little bit of a rally theme if it puts the car down, not to mention how long it is

BTW The spoiler looks better black

Oh and i wouldnt matt black it personally, just the back to black now and then

Hope you don't take offence fella, know you'e heard it before but just pointing out a few things good/bad,

as long as you like it matey

SparkZ sticker is the car club I sort of run, its lowered -35mm'ish' on Eibach pro kit, I purchased the DTM cups and more recently my greenstuff pads from PVD, and the other is an advertisment for my mates car shop. Happy?

Just looks like another corsa C with big wheels nothing rally-ish about it from what I can see. I'm suprised you're allowed to drive with the towing eye sticking out like that as it could do someone a nasty injury
