Merry Christmas fellow corsa owners hope all is well guys

Well a boring Boxing Day it seems so went out to tinker with the corsa too wet to do anything that's needing done like fit arb driveshafts so installed some new led side lights that arrived on xmas eve

Image

Next up had to sort the wiring mess in the connector for the CD player

Image

All working now

Image

Next up my rear mudflaps didn't have any clips to secure them to bumper so decided to use some small screws like the previous owner

So whipped bumper off

Image

Nice and solid back end still which is a bonus

Image

Image

Look much better now and also fitted a smoked number plate light

Image

Complete with led bulb

Image

Also got an old alternator belt and measured it and cut down to size and will take that into a shop and try get one the same size as I need. Would have used string but don't have any lol

Image

Cheers guys hope everyone's having a good one

I think you have to measure the size of the belt you need and then the new belt code will tell you the length so find the closest size.

Happy new year guys pretty wet scotland so far however I was up at my mates last week and managed to get some free corsa bits which is always nice Isn't it

Image

Wiper arms springs and top mounts which are like new will be used as I think it's on spax shocks atm with cut springs and that was how I got it. Ideally want gaz ultra low coilovers but budget doesn't allow atm.

Another thing I noticed was well I've owned 10 corsas to this previously and all have been post 97s or the expetion of the gsi I had but yeah all have looked the same. I've always wanted a pre97 sport in the dark purple they came in but there few and far between so a got in touch with the guy I sold the bumpers from the corsa from when I first bought it and he still had them and said if I could collect them before weekend I could have them for free!

So off I went and got them and got the front fitted 1st

Image

Image

And the rear one too Al need to swap mudflaps over aswell

Image

Image

Now I quite like it but not feeling the silver atm had too many silver ones lol really do fancy that dark purple

Once weathers a bit better Al get other drive shaft fitted springs on and arb refitted

Also been doing a few things to the bmw since there's a scottish drift championship this and it's open to everyone I think I'm going try get the old girl ready for my 1st comp

All red rear lights

Image

Yellow front sidelights and as can tell in the pic by the mad camber I've fitted extended superstyle arms to the front and going modify my hubs for extra lock

Image

Also got hydro mounted where I want it

Image

Cheers

I reckon the bonnet would look good with colour coded bumpers.

Nah straight swap bud badboy bonnet had slight rust on edge and filler work on badboy sections were terrible and I don't think it was done properly as was a mission to open bonnet before but that's how I got the car
