right update time, ive done a whole 700 miles in the car including pvs and the rear wheel bearing just failed and raped my stub axle whilst it was doing so - i was so pissed off as they were new and id fitted them properly etc so after storming the motor factors they gave me a new one for free! slight result although ive still got to source a stub axle and fettle it all

on another note i have this to fit - as i dont like how naff fitting the standard one is with an xe in there so thats to do this week

now for my favourite update, theres some tidy motors on here and pvs got me thinking on how difficult it is to make your corsa differ from others (no easy task when its arden blue haha) so ill let these pics do the talking, if it works well im gonna try do a few more bigger panels and bits of trim to compliment, i appreciate its cosmetic only but its the real deal, it aint cheap and its a ball ache to do (taking me ages)- im only learning so well have to see where this leads.... thanks for looking guys

to go with my plan i decided to alter the shape slightly and remove the swage line around the mirror,this would aid my plans

gonna carry on with it tomorrow and get a new stub for the back

Where'd you get the fan from? If it the same as the one I had on my corsa it was never as good at cooling the engine as my standard one was.

Oh I'm not saying it wouldn't cool down (eventually). It just took its time.

Sorry I was mistaken, I replaced a metal one I had off a random car. So ignore my comparison to standard
