Irmscher skirts look better on the pre corsa's and you can find them cheap enough

Only managed to do one side of my car and the bonnet and bumpers! Really impressed with the Mer bumper gel!
Some pictures of the car after G3, Magic Polish, and Meguiars Deep Crystal Carnauba Wax!
Side Pannel done compared to the bonnet.







Let me know what you think?

It just come up with your forsale bits haha. Planning on putting wheels on and smoked side indicators. Had my eye on some reclining bucket seats on eBay the read ones..but don't know about the rail to get might just take it of the original seats and mount that on. Depends on funds really!

Your doing a great job on that. Nothing better than a gleaming red car except for a gleaming yellow car

As for sideskirts, the only ones that suit Corsas imo are Irmscher, Steinmetz or GSi. Steinmetz are my favourite
