well ppl, as the gf has gone back to uni for the next 3weeks, ive deciced to crack on and get the her corsa sorted to give me summit to do.
i mannaged 2 get hold of some -60mm springs n shocks from corsaevolutions mate so ive stripped the car down.

the suspension is now on, just waiting for it to settle abit more.
i have removed all bumpers and arches so that i can get them prepped and sprayed in dark grey agen to match the std bumper colour.

hers some taster pics.......





(the car doesnt have ne bumpers etc on it now, more pics top follow)

clean the inner arches and maybe spray them black, but may be too black then, not sure?
Make sure you get the mirrors painted the same colour as the bumpers as well, or white.
Then get some new bolts for the wheels, or even better would be to get black ones? Just don't paint them otherwise it will all wear off when they are removed/fitted.
Will be looking very good then!
