turn the thundercorsa into a "sleeper corsa"
paint it in either...
1. Kandy Blue
2. Kandy Red
3. Pure White
GSi kit smoothed (not smoothed into arches by the way)
keep the Reiger sideskirts (cos i like them)
get rid of the badyboy boot and bonnet (maybe get a painted carbon bonnet for weight reasons)
put some reasr seats back in.. or a big cage like Brads ?
some nice front seats, maybe them new Cobras or just GSi ones
16" wheels
normal rear lights
normal mirros (maybe smooth the little grooves out)
keep the smooth tailgate
keep the bonnet (but get rid of the airfilter vent)
chrome or colourcode the enginebay)
get some big boy brakes
a proper custom exhaust (not a Powerflow jobbie)
reason me saying this is cos i fell in love with that corsa
what you think ??

what corsa are you talking about?
plus smooth tailgate is NOT a sleeper corsa 
Sleeper is:
standard/vaux aftersales bodywork
standard/vaux wheels (15/16 inch)
stupid big engine
standard interior

Plus I must say one of the reasons your car tickles my fanny is because it looks so rude with the body/paint job, and it has an engine spec to match it.

Subtle is the new cool at the minute with cars..
But if you turn your car into a street sleeper, it becomes a GOD!
Street Sleepers with Subtle styling are WAY better then Kitted up cars in my view

Corb your car looks just so though. Styling is'nt shite and tatty and its immaculate and with the wheels and brakes you know there is something big (not your cock) in the engine bay.
