Got a corsa sri, gsi kit, alloys, lowered, k&n induction, powerflow exhaust!!

PICS: http://photobucket.com/albums/d99/CORSAAA/CORSA%20SRI/

(please could someone host these to make it easier for people to see!)

Have a few ideas for modding it, but aint sure yet!!

These are ideas ive had so far:

Wheels White 16" Comp Mos, 17" Arospeed RSGTs

Brakes Astra 2.0 GSI Brake discs, pads and callipers

Styling Tinted windows, kamei grill, badboy bonnet, semi smooth boot (keeping plate recess)

Lights (front) smoked, morrettes or angels

Lights (rears) mhw smoked, irmscher or ultra smoked

Install Full boot build install

Any other ideas or pics to give me some ideas!!??

Also which of these mods do you think are good ideas and which do you think should take priority (should i do first)

If you want, photoshop the mods you think i should do onto my car then post up the pic!!

Cheers

Wheels - Comp MO's

Brakes - 2.0 setup

styling - no to tints, no to badboy bonnet

Lights(f) - crystal smoked

lights (r) - MHW or Irmscher

Thats what i think anyway.

I think the car looks good, and with all that stuff on will be very nice. Good to see a black GSI (or replica). I personally dont like window tints, but its your car so if you want them then go for it. On the whole just do what you want, and if your happy with how it looks then thats how it should be.

i know, just like other opinions and any pics of black corsa with any of these mods on will be appreciated!!
What you not like about tints??
And as for the kamei grill, is it worth buyign one then modding the bumper so the top of it is smooth and can house the grill, or is it not worth the hassle, as i imagine all in, that will cost £150 on its own??
I know its my choice for mods, etc and people always say that, i aint asking for someone to do the mods, i know its my choice in the end, just like other opinions as other peoples ideas might be better or soemthing id not thought of!

anyone else got any advise or opinions on the mods i have planned!!

do you think the kamei grill would be worth doing or not, as i reckon it would cost bout £150 all in to do it, buy the grill 2nd hand, and then smooth over the ridge in the gsi bumper and re-spray bumper so it fits!!??

what would you say should be my next mod and what mods can wait??
