Bit of an update . Dropped the cage off this morning at my mates bodyshop , will be done in Arden Blue . Unsure when it will be finished as i think they are pretty busy , was hoping to have it ready for this saturday but looks unlikely .
Also ive bought a Whiteline RARB on a group buy off another site but not entirely sure when that will be arriving dew to other people still needing to pay and so on .
Might get a couple vids of the car on the weekend to show you what it sounds like .

I saw the RARB thread on CCUK and was tempted, but I really shouldn't be spending that amount of money when I don't need to Plus tbf if Warren does them for £180 delivered, it's only a £13 saving, which isn't much to shout about imo when you think of the whole figure. It's like having £100 knocked off a brand new car, you'll barely notice 
Looks great with the black hole and wax though Black Hole gives so much gloss, you can't help but love it.
Looking forward to seeing it at PVS

Ive wanted one for ages and when i saw the group buy i put my name down straight away . Apparentally there meant to be the best handling mod for the corsa . And no its nothing to shout about but they retail at 200 direct from the whiteline site and they dont really sell for any less than 150 second hand ! I payed 167.50 so its a nice in between price .
Yh the poorboys has worked really well , very pleased with the results .
Haha thanks dude really looking forward to putting a face to all the names as ive never met any of you guys before !!

Well you cant really call this an update but yh . Basically ages ago my mint speedline became not so mint after i curbed one of them about three times in a week . Fortunately it waas the same wheel so wasnt to bothered .
BUT tonight i had another retard moment and hit a curb and done in another !
So im considering getting them re powdercoated in white or maybe another colour or go for some different wheels........... Ideas will be appreciated !

Yh it comes apart . I got mine in threw the front doors and over the seats . Then just assemble it bit by bit once its in there !
Got it all in and bolted down today . Didn't get chance to wash it tho as had to go to my mates yard and fit a new inner cv boot ! Will give the car a good clean inside and out tomorow and get some pictures !

Ok mate,i've always wondered. Deffo will be having one after the engines done.
So you've fitted the cage.... no pictures.... and not even washed it.... Thought you was better than that Nath.
Only joking pal,i bet it looks lush with the rear strutbrace aswell,can't wait.

Cage is in ! Was really easy to get it in and bolted down too . Few pictures .





Really happy with it .
My whiteline anti roll bar shud sent out tomorow so hopefully can get that fitted next saturday after MOT .
Also im really not happy with the paint work on the car , dew to stone chips and little parking dents . And i want it looking mint for PVS , so in May im having a full respray done on the car , Including full colour code (skirts , arches , roof rails , mirror baseplates) . I will also be having the 2 curbed speedlines repowdercoated .
Fingers crossed the car should be exactly how i want it asthetics wise by PVS
