Painting the skirts arden blue? If you are then itll look odd with plastic arches as they kind of run into each other imo

Another day on the corsa over the weekend....Had a leaky rocker cover for a few weeks but decided time to act when the manifold was creating smoke clouds in traffic ques...
Off with the rocker....Gave it a spray and replaced it with a new vauxhall gasket, gave her a filter change and fitted some new ngks, relaced the temp sensor so i now have working water temp guage
Fitted some 8mm leads.....
Ive also got a 4-1 manifold to fit however a quick poke underneath shows my whole exhaust is welded solid So thats gonna have to be a job on a ramp as im not laying underneath with mig spatter on me chest :/
Finally got rid of the comedy eyebrows and fitted some depo's

It is looking better for sure. I really cant look at a car with a bra without cringing but if its badly rusty i can 1/2 understand.
