no probs mate...
I use the car everyday... doesnt do alot of miles tho.
The engine was painted up before it went, it dont really get that dirty.
Just clean it every now and again.

cheers for the comments... 
Its lowered on Eibach Sport springs.
Its prob about a 45 at the front and 30 at the back i think.

i had it 60 down and TBH it handled like a bag of shite! Much better now its the way it is but could be a bit lower at the back.
hmmm... think i like it black tbh.
I use turtle wax stuff.... not sure what it is, it in a wee black bottle.

Still my one of my favourite 2.0 Corsa 
If you c/c one bit then you've got to do the whole lot in my opinion.
But to be honest, with the Steinmetz bits on, it'd be a tough choice but I might actually be tempted to piant it all up if it were mine

Fucking awesome mate 
Rocker needs to be a gunmetal grey as do the wheel arches and skirts and mud flaps so they dont look quite so standard!
Softstars are the wheels designed for the corsa, they look so awesome

TBH... the conversion was done when i got it, all i've done is cleaned it up a wee bit, tidy'd and painted a few wee bits.
The body was standard when i got it so done a few things there. wheels, suspension, exhaust, brakes skirts etc...
So.. cant take all the credit!! But cheers!!
