Just thought i'd post a few pics of my car and get some suggestions on what i should do to it!

I dont want to go over the top really, im lowering 40mm when i get around to fitting the springs I was thinking i might get a gsi front bumper and then bad boy the bonnet - anyone know roughly how much this would cost? I've got a budget of around £350.

mm, u could get arches and bumper all sprayed grey with an irmscher lip on the front and possibly some 2nd hand gsi skirts in that price range.

Then id say bad boy will be another £200,
stick with colour coding everything first

Lower it and snap that extra thing off the mirror.

GSi bumper would look good and you might paint that and the back bumper for that money. Don't know if you'd squeeze a bad boy in there as well, thats £200 on its own.

Extra mirror looks stupid i know but i need it for the one way system in lancaster - its a nightmare.

The front end of that corsa is what im aiming for, so id have to get the black parts sprayed to make it look right.

thanks for the replies anyway, will probably ring vauxhall tommorow about the bumper!

As Ian says NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vauxhall will quote you £230 for GSi bumper without fogs or grille or lower spoiler!!!!!

change the clear rear back to standard as they look better, lower it & change those wheels not a fan of those... & exhaust, most important an ALARM!!!!!
