Wheels aren't bad at all, I think they suit it actually.

Needs to go lower to suit those wheels (I say that because there's a carabic gsi round the corner with the exact same ones on

I may have a think about the springs and stuff

was unsure about a spoiler but I want one now so may have to have a hunt around!

I may have one, i wrote off my old corsa, going to get bits from it later as it in some impound. the spoiler is red though. Easy enough to pick up from the breakers when you do have money though to be honest!

IMO with the bumpers kept black, just really buffed up, with the spoiler, and lowered a bit, would look really good! would look subtely sporty!

GSi kit would look nice, quite expensive though really! , i had a 1.2 8v for a while. spent a bit at it, not a massive amount, just put springs on it, exhaust, colour coded bumpers, alloys and lights. Didnt want to go to mad with it really, as at the end of the day it was only a 1.2.

now i have a yrs no claims i bought a gsi, im willing to splash out on it more lol! i spent £900 on it the day i bought it lol!

Yeh I do like the black bumpers on mine!

Looking at yours Dan makes me want to get a spoiler and I really like the red bump strips!

How much was yours lowered by? thats the sort of height I want mine!

soon as i got the car, i bought coilovers, as it was on the those gmaxx springs and shocks at first, a 4-2-1 manifold, wind deflectors, a new black bonnet, headlights, and speakers, loads of cleaning and polishing bits and bobs! Went a bit mad on the first day lol! Specially considering i wasn't going to spend anything on it for the first couple of days, just drive it lool! That went out the window! Need to get some pics of it up, only got 1, which was from its 'for sale' add on piston heads!

(and a driveshaft )
