Keep simple is the plan, already keep finding myself looking at 3 door mods I've never been able to do on my 5 door.
Might buy some more subtle wheels and exhaust, as only really bought for commuting to work (just moved to a closer branch)

Same with the green one.
When I'm on way to work and have to park in a public car park, it's pointless having good paint

Well this car has been pretty damn faultless.
Been using everyday for work, only one fault was when I hammered it on a bend and driveshaft popped out.
Few simple touches since
Set of depos fitted, old lights glass fell off the actual unit :/
New wheels, get rid of white ones. Sensible black £50 for set terrible paint and kerbed but done me for about 6 months
Then had somebody hit me
The only hit my wheel just major scuffed, didn't mind as badly kerbed so didn't go trough insurance
Today I refurbished one wheel
Before

During

After
needs tyre shine, was only rattle cans in the garden. I'm very happy considering. Everything on this car is budget. Other car is the big project

Looks like a decent little car for a cheap runner.
Can I just ask, what are the old wheels? ![](/board/images/smile/lol.gif)
Sorry couldn't resist.

Left lights on for 2/3 mins and flag battery again .
New battery, replacement drivers arch, and some side repeaters bought. Should made it look much nicer than ATM. Currently has 3 arches and one side rep

I've never seen a set fitted to a corsa on the road, only ever see at shows.
Same as cav slabs, common on the internet only.
