They are getting common  
On a Corsa website? Really?  It's because Black C's are amazing.

Last pictures were a bit poo so I took a few more. I've had irmy splitter and cupra splitted fitted, my lights smoked and the lenses refurbed, and my base plates and roof rails sprayed also. Next up are alloys. Thinking D90s 7/8J on 165/40/16's on the front and 195/40/16's on the rear. Not too sure yet. 
Few pictures.. bit mucky but ah well!

Not a fan of the splitter on splitter look that some people go for. Makes the front look mismatched and too busy in my opinion.

Tbh, I'm not a massive fan of the front anyway. Someone on CCUK FB site posted asking if anyone wanted to swap his Airdam for a irmy grill/smooth facelift/irmy splitter. I've messaged him just waiting for a response.

Had Airdam resprayed. Having it flatted and polished at weekend though. My girlfriend also bought me a Focus RS Splitter so me and my bro fitted that the other night. Gonna buy some new wheels aswell soon, sell my SRi's and use the money for some morettes. Yeaa mateeee. I washed the car, then it pissed it down seconds after i'd finished so sorry for the rain on the car

Well, had a proper cleaning session earlier. Had the airdam flatted and polished Saturday night so wanted to give it all a good clean.
Process:
Washed down with pressure washer
Snow foamed with Demon Shine Snow Foam (Shít stuff)
Cleaned using 2 bucket method with Meguiars car shampoo.
Rinsed with pressure washer again
Dried with microfibre drying towel - 3 times over to get it dry
Poorboys black hole all over and buffed off
Autoglym sealant all over
Cleaned all windows/tyres/airdam grill/scuttle panel with an assortment of gels etc that my dad brought me home from work. (Dunno the names)
3 layers of poorboys wheel sealant on wheels
Then quick detailed using chemical guys speed wipe to get rid of anything left over
Then the usual, hoover, dash shine smelly stuff etc.
Wanting all the car machine polishing before show season, along with a few more goodies.
I think I need to loosen the bolts in the centre of the splitter as it looks like its flexing a little in the middle.

Airdams are pre bumpers, mines a post car. I had to get different mounting brackets for the bumper to fit onto. The bumper is on both the brackets, they're genuinely just a shit fit under the lights. It will be coming back off again soon to see if we can get it on better, but i think thats the best it's going to be.
Need to get a little plastic bolt behind the arch, but other than that, nothing can be done.
