A few updates put a tigra splitter on the car since a speed bump ripped the corsa one off
They dont look diffrent from the original one just a stronger design and a b1tch to fit.



I was bored today so i bought some paint to smarten up around the hubs i had painted.




Clipped the petrol pipes up after the photo.

Just another 4 arches left and all the underneath, then paint the back axel

I done the same with the inner arches lad. Look at my project thread. Took ALOT longer than I expected. Two coats to cover fully!

Car looks sweet btw, keep up the great work!
