Well since i'm pretty much finished with my car, Heres its progression since owning it. I'm happy with how the car turned out in the end. Money well spent in many areas.
So here it is, back in the day where i've merly stuck some jap exhaust bin on the back, aswell as lexus lights....looking goooood. Also bought sam's (dna23) original sxi alloys off him, which was better than nothing, and i quite liked the look of them


Then the side strips came off

Then it got mopped! looked fanastic and like glass

Then got into the modding a bit too much and this was my down fall i think Bought suspension and got rid of the jap backbox



Then Bought SXI/Sports interior which is one of my favourite bits

Then came along a bargain and picked up a set of alloys for £150! which really help the look of the car


Slapped on the 2 litre Astra GTE brakes

After putting the standard rear lights back on, it was the big turn and one last look before the car went in the bodyshop


Then a couple weeks later



Got a little ott and bought (which was a bargain) a full blueflame system, which i'm glad i got. but it did kill me money wize for a while

Then the best bit FINALLY came. think it was about a month of waiting (after i paided for them) the softstars


So there it is gents, my corsa. the way things are going it will most likely be at pvs this year. And here are two pictures i took a few days ago


I feel i spent a bit too much but the engine has been golden and i've never had a serious fault with it

He had irmscher skirts, but sold them as he's finished with the car, coincidentally that's the reason he gives for the post 
Lovely car Rus mate, love the early pic where it looks like sams handbraked his car round by yours, what a pro
