Well some may know that I was looking for a clean GSI but found it hard to get one in the condition I wanted.. So I had changed my mind and though about a 205GTI so was out looking for one seen a few but most have had the tits ragged out it and underneath rotten so I gave up I’m sick of looking at cars to be honest been to see a good few that have meant to be in mind condition but turns out to be a bag of shit when I get there 
Why cant people just tell the truth over phone/email about the car to save time 
Anyway was up late last night on ebay bored looking at a few nova’s and corsa’s did however find a good looking kitted corsa yes some will not like but hey its not going to be yous that’s driving the thing is it?
Just really looking to see if the guy is on here or if anyone knows about the car from a mate or so on?
Yes there would be a few things that I would change. Lexus light’s would have to be removed same with bonnet was thinking along the lines of a nice set of black wheels and a carbon bonnet 
Think al shut up now and here’s a few pictures of the car

It takes a while to find a decent car. When i was looking for a GSi. I used to go go on autotrader daily and ebay every half hour(sometimes) to see if any cars had turned up. Spent a month looking before i found a good one.

Do you like the front and back bumpers and the skirts and wide arches,
if so then go for it but if not dont, its going to be a pain to change any one of those because they are all blended
if its only things like mirrors/spoiler/bonnet that you dont like then go for it!

Yeah i like back/front bumpers and skirts
would need full spray aswell if i was to change spoiler ect as its a pearlescent white with a touch of blue so would only really change the bonnet for a carbon one as i plan to go with the carbon and white theme

i quite like it, i like the arches and bumper combination didnt think that'd work, saw this in fast and modified a while back in the readers cars section was just finished and outta the bodyshop looked mint,
a bit more grunt and it'd be a winner

If you knew the code of the paint you would be able to spray a new spoiler to a perfect match carbon bonnet would be pointless on that car IMO
