This is my girlfriends Corsa 1.2 Energy. She wasn't going to do anything to it until i convinced her

Started out like this

Was completely standard. Then her mum and dad got her an Irmy grille for xmas. What a nightmare that was to fit

Had to cut the old one off and drill holes for the new one etc. Looked really good once done though

Note the missing front lower grille part. A pheasent dived head first through it

We did buy some SRI cross hatch ones to replace all of them, but looked like a pain so didn't bother.

After that we debadge the boot, haven't got any pics though.

Most recently we bought her an irmy front splitter. Had it sprayed this week and fitted it today. The colour of the arch part on the sides is a little out, cant really tell in the photos though. Also fitted a new lower grill too.

Were on the lookout for some SXI black rear lights now as hers are the shitty red ones. Also might get some 35mm lowering springs. Sitting in the garage waiting to go on are some SXi skirts and SXi rear wing.

Not bad for a first car i dont think

I dont think all the 04 onwards models came with the projector style lights. Seen quite a lot of them that have these lights. We were looking at getting some but they are so expensive for what they are.

Fair enough. They do look slightly different to pre-facelift's anyway.

How can she afford a nice car like that Jay, when I can only afford a car that cost me £375.

Tim, if you ever go there again and they have some then give me a shout

We're not going to fit the sri grilles, its more hassle than its worth. We'd have to get the foglights, then wire everything all up. Looks really good as it is.

She says thank you Fad

Went and took some better photos today, shame the cars dirty though

Cant wait to get the skirts on, should make the sides look a little deeper.

I would have got mine out, but i found an excuse not to

Got round to fitting the SXI sideskirts the other day. Was a ball ache to fit, stupid little brackets.

Next up will be some SXI rear lights. Would have been so much easier if she had just bought an SXI in the first place
