Silver Corsa B
Finally I thought I would make a Project Log!
Car needed a good bloody clean!
This is only a budget project as the apprenticeship I am on is awful pay...
The mods that I have done are:
De-badged grill
De-badged the boot and the club symbols from the side
Tinted my rear lights
few stickers on
new aerial
Alloy Wheels
6x9 speakers
Changed door speakers
Xenon bulbs (haven't fitted yet)
Smoked Side repeaters
Few pics that I have (reformatted my computer and lost all my stuff but these i had saved on my phone)
De-badged grill
Smoked side repeaters
De-badged boot + smoked rear lights
Silver bee sting aerial
Vauxhall alloy wheels
Interior
6x9 in parcel shelf
Corsa b sticker
Vibe sticker
Nom Nom sticker
Xenon bulbs
Vauxhall dust caps
Suggestions and tips welcome
Got a few things in mind to do next:
Lower 60/40
take off bumper strips
rear window tints (limo black i think...)
Alloys sprayed black
New sportex back box
Spray greyish trim anthracite
Maybe smaller tyres as i got 195/55/R15 but tbh i want 195/45/R15 as they look better in my opinion!

Re: Silver Corsa B
looks like the bee sting is trying to escape by unscrewing itself slowly until it can disappear

Re: Silver Corsa B
looks very smart for a standard corsa tho fair play and for an aerial try finding an astra coupe aerial as its a standard black one but shorter than a standard corsa one and looks smarter than a b-sting as that doesnt seem to fit very well towards the base of the aerial.

Re: Silver Corsa B
I have sorted my aerial out! Jr hacksaw and a file! worked a treat accept my blade snapped half way through... lol
Took photos with my phone so one is not that great... + it was raining lol
Close up
There is this kind of mould or something on the base of the aerial... any tips on getting it off? i tried just scrubbing it but didnt get all of it off...
Need some decent days worth of weather so i can take off my bumper strips and paint my wheels!
