When i first got my mitts on it, it was bog standard looking sexual like this lol

Next i refurbed some old corsa C alloys i had lying about in work....

Followed by a gsi spoiler

Put both of them on the car

Next it was deffinately time for lowering so -60mm later...

Was pretty happy with the look of the car after lowering...

but eventually got bored so took the side strips off and had my bumpers smoothed off....

while the bumpers were being worked on she looked like this :lol

When the bumpers came back....

then made a half hearted effort to do the arches and a set of new rear light

Then eventually got the arches done in the bodyshop and this is how she looks today...

Not too sure what to do with her now, im wanting something fasted so dont think its worth throwing anymore money at her. there are lots of little bits i want to do to her, if i do i shall update the tread

thanks for looking

Thats nice mate. A de-badged grill, MHW/Irmscher Smoked rears and smoked side repeaters would finish that off

personally would have left the bumpers with the black trim as they tied in nicely with you wheels. dont get me wrong looks good now. little things like repeaters, numberplates will look

if you want something faster why not xe it

It maybe diesel, but it still sounds nice mate

Some plain plates, Colour code door handles, smoke side repeaters?

Is there any gsi spoilers lying around your work?

Looks very smart mate, if it was mine i'd get smoked side repeaters (which I see you are doing :thumbs

and change the grill.

And I also recon it looks top in that pic with the black bumpers and arches... more contrast so the car stands out more.

i must admit i liked the look with the black bumpers, ive still got them so who knows, maybe if i xe it ill put them back on to look more of a sleeper

Few bits on the way after xmas, i really want some smoked headlights soon, think it will finish the front off with a badgeless grille
