all comments are greatly appreciated, and the paint job myself, as u can tell its only white primer, wanted to see how it would come out/react to everyday conditions, if it doesnt go well matt black is on the cards, and for the sake if it costing me £30 rather than hundreds perfection was not on the top of my list, well the coilovers are adjustable 20-120mm and they are all the way down with helper springs removed, if u look at my mate ash's corsa beside me his is roughly the same but on 15's

so gives u an idea, ill be putting speedlines on it adfter the winter to lift it up

but it means i can fit my 2.0 without being scared of breaking it, this ones on its third sump already xD and the nova i think its only done 35,000 miles, cleanest ive ever seen

whats that got to do with it, i had 5 corsa's and a astra. including 1.6 sports,1.4 sports and a redtop

just because i drive a clio doesn't mean i can say your car looks high for the supposed drop

Regardless to what other peoples opinions are i think it looks smart, definately different and tbh with a corsa now after being around 17 years its hard to be different... I like it white i think all matt black might be abit too plain, but thats just my opinion. Hopefully the white stays clean lol!

u got that right all i see on every forum is, speedlines, cesaros, or cav slabs, with gsi bodykits, every seems to follow the crowd whereas id rather stand out from it than settle in
