ok, to start off with im gonna have to write this carp so the thread doesnt go in the wrong direction; Ive already heard comments on the car, good and bad. I just want helpfull ideas please.

ok...

Car is primed and ready to paint. But could maybe be doing with some new touches... anyone got any ideas?... no new parts etc, just custom bodywork.
A few of my ideas:
A motor bike sized number plate recess in the middle section of the d&m bumper.
Badboy tailgate or the lights totally removed and the boot extended right round to the cover the gap left, then small lights fitted to replace the clusters?...

My main dilema is colour and or paint style...
My original plan was rage extreme illusion flip paint, but most people have given me negative feed back and made me think its not the way to go. I was also think 2-tone. Another i thought of was Mica blue front with Vauxhall metalic green (standard corsa colour) at the back then washed togeth in the middle to blend the colours?...

suggestion would be moucho appreciated.

Its not an F50 vent mate... Its a 206 bonnet from ecosse.
Im thinking about going for 18" vault rims now (thanks DanielJ)
As for the vents, there is no vent on the car, and in general the sides are pretty smooth, i dunno if cutting holes in it would be going in the right direction.
Well at least someone has recomended flip paint, thats a start

As in a flip from blue to green?..
The name change is cos ive just opened a big new MOVACC approved bodyshop in glasgow with state of the art painting facilities and we do allot of accident repair and commercial vehicle painting, so i needed a name that suited all the markets we work in... ie customising, accident repair, commercial refinishing.
The old name sounded like an IT company
