Im not telling him what to do,im just voicing my opinion which seems to be a bad thing on this site.
Im pretty sure if some1 was to start a topic with pics of there car with lexus lights on it they would be shot down.
And not every1 goes for a faster car every time they change.

putting pics up is the same as asking for comments on it.
asking about an old car and the guy who has it replying saying he's gonig to modify it in a certain way isn't.

People would advise the owner against lexus lights
And how will it look like a mix and match of scrappy parts? Dont see much carbon bits or morettes in scrappys

Yes and im advising the owner against black mirrors and fake carbon fibre stick on tat.
Not real carbon bits anyway.Im assuming these handles and stuff are just "carbon fibre look" which to me is just cheap and tacky and imho pointless on a fully kitted road car.

Im pretty sure they will be carbon, going by his last car and his style then i dont think Robs the type to stick fake carbon tat on his car. And this isnt a fully kitted road car. Its a standard gsi

Tbh its his car so he can mod it how he wants With what he has planned i cant see how it is going to ruin it  He wants to make his own touches to make it his own 
Its not as if he has a fibre glass body kit and lexus lights and 17s planned
Ever since he has bought this car and threads have been started all any1 has done is put a downer on it for him
So what its not as clean as when some off the last owners had it  If they want it to stay ho it was when they had it then why bother selling it
Give the guy a break and let him do what he wants to his car

As most know ie: B3KAN and Mertin particular that my last 106 gti was fairly nice, Wasnt to ott and i did my best to maintain it!
As for all the cocks putting a huge downer on the car, Yeah so what it isnt as clean as when the last few boys had it but who says it isnt going to be as clean now i have it? As keith knows im in love with the car its been washed and polished three times since ive had it...
Only thing ive done so far is fit some proper vauxhall gm flaps to the back, Painted the window scooshers glossy black.
It wont be fake carbon fibre, Its coming from DIMG so how is it fake? Beleive me the car wont look a mix up bag it will look mean, It will break up the red and also add some personal touches, Its not going to ott... As for people saying it will ruin the car, Ill post pictures when its done
Just a reminder of the 106
And why did i change cars? The 106 was unreliable, was fast yes but the expense on parts. Vauxhalls are a bit of cake to work on cheap parts, And im quite keen on modding another 1600 16valver, Its not a downgrade to me, If you sat the 106 or the corsa side by side, Corsa would be picked everyday
Keep your oppinions to yourself, You havent seen the car proper!
And thanks to the lads defending me

Will look forward to seeing the corsa
Also, you got on the wrong side of the law with the 106? And it wasnt exactly insurance friendly with 150 brake
And its a corsa the condition is always going to detoriate, rust etc. You dont expect it to remain the same for years

Rob - Dimg's stuff aint real carbon, it's carbon look stuff 
eventhought it aint the proper shit, it still look's ace, take a look at dan's red corsa, thats full of his stuff, and it look's smart
dont listen to the fool's, do as you please it's your motor, and im sure it'll look good when done fella
