LN Customs Corsa B Sport
Hi all, new to Corsasport.co.uk, been told this was the best place on the web for all my Corsa needs 1st time Corsa owner, purchased my 1999 1.6 16v Sport back in November last year, had her hidden away in the garage for the past 6 months whilst collecting various parts & modifications for her.
Finally got her on the road just before the bank holiday weekend, if any of you saw the LN Customs club stand at Modified Nationals, you may have spotted her
Ferrybridge Services on the way home from picking her up and a couple of shots before shutting her away for the remainder of winter
After 4 months in the garage, time to crack on with the rebuild
A week before Modified Nationals and it was time for t&t and get her back on the road Then the week of Mod Nats after a couple of trips to various ends of the country to pick up new wings, doors, bits of interior and other mods, we put her back together
After being parked away for all winter and with new donar bodyparts, she needed a good amount of G3 before even starting to detail
Once at the Hotel for Modified Nationals, we could really give it some proper start treatment, using a Meguiars power polisher, DoDo Juice cutting/finishing pads and some Lime Prime, she really shined up a treat, this is why I am always liked black cars
First night at Modified Nationals and on the LN Customs club stand, very happy with my first attempt at a eurostile Corsa
Things still to come;
Colour coded Roof Box, DTM Mirrors, scuttle panel, wind deflectors, mudflaps
I am gutted I have missed PVS, but hopefully I will be able to involved with the CorsaSport stand at other events
Cheers. Lofty

Looks nice and clean. Bonnet looks really good, but not my thing really. Looks too random to the rest of the car.
Not sure if its 'Euro styled' either?

Thanks folks. I've never really done a Euro car, so I'm new to it all, been in the modified car scene for years, had hot hatchs, vans, v6, scooby, tried just about everything except euro.
I think I'm going for a clean & tidy look more than anything else
Where do I put up a project thread?
Thanks

it's not euro style in the slightest, just clean, but good job anyway.

Projects section is here: http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/forumdisplay.php?fid=67
I thought more people would like the bonnet. It's not like it's some shitty DIY one. It's obviously been done properly to a high standard.
I agree the car isn't 'euro' , just clean lol. Euro usually entails small deep dish wheels, a lot of smoothed bodywork, wide arches and lowered to the ground.
I think some different headlights and some artwork on the roof would look good

Thank you, I will get a more detail post up in the Projects section. The bonnet has had a lot of attention, it seems to be the main feature that stands out to people and it turns heads where ever I take her
I'm actually looking at changing the wrap on the bonnet to a different theme and carrying that on, onto the roof
I'm on the look out for a set of black Depo's

Each to their own. The idea of carrying it on to the roof was because I have a roofbox to go on, so it wont be too in your face as the roof box will cover it.
