Bodyshops charge anywhere from £100 to 150 usually for full mop, mine was done in the price with all the work but he only charges about £40 anyway as he's a top bloke and i know him well got snaps of him doing it that i'll put up later - took him for full car roughly 2 hours he used 3 diff compounds iirc nd then washed it all down...
earliest pics i have

see here for her life...

it's quite a long process and not something u can do without experience as u can risk burning ure paintwork and totally fooking it up but basically u use a series of cutting compounds, theres a whole variety that vary in grits and what they do to ure paint... g3 and g10 r most commonly used by farecla. u'll need some specialist equipment to do it and its best left for a bodyshop

theres lots of posts on it and i did one with pics but can't find it so i'll repost some later - its essentially a buffing pad on an angle grinder

i dont really get this but if your on about the irmscher lip, then it was designed by vauxhall for the corsa b to go as a lower splitter, its criminal that you should even dare say it looks out of place - irmscher is the daddy
well my smoothed post 97 front looked good with no irmscher lip
imo i think urs would look better without it,but ur car init

imo, it wud look out without the irmscher front airdam, the styling of it has the 2 orb like thinks to match the front.... mine doesn't have these so i dont know how it wud look... i've found a rear i like but i'm trying to source it now, if that doesnt work then i have another idea but tbh its so subtle my styling even rieger wud be to much

Smooth your rear bumper in the same way that your front one has been done. Will look better than any aftermarket front bumper. NeilM has it done to his aswell as the smoothed front and it works very well
