Think i'm going to keep my corsa for a while, not had much luck selling it.. 
Going to change the look of it over next few months.
Plans are either a steinmetz or irmscher splitter (not smoothed in) and getting my bonnet resprayed and bad boyed due to stone chips..
What is everyones opinions on what this would look like??
Heres a pic of the car, think front just looks crap like a 1.2 etc.. lol...

GSi skirts would mean colour coding which I dont want to do..
Plan is to get all the black plastics done in anthracite after ave sorted out splitter etc..
Not a fan of smoked lights on red cars mav..
Think al end up with the irmscher splitter, see how it looks then get plastics done instead of bonnet...

i'd pay the extra and have the splitter smoothed in, it looks awesome
as for the front, have the bonnet extended but not bad boyed, looks neater and still subtle

Not a huge fan of the extended bonnets tbh. Theres a few with irmscher splitters and bad boyd bonnets up here, think they look pretty good..
Want a more aggresive look to it.

Keep those Rims Kano  I'm a big fan of your car!
Antricate Plastics sounds good!
Possibly Colourcoded Door Handles?

Car is spot on.
Remove the rear wiper and that would be it for me.
Single wiper on the front.
Job done.

Cheers for the help... Think its gonna be a steinmetz splitter, plastics painted anthracite then maybe wheels aswell...
Cant justify the cost of an irmscher spliter, knowing me I'd hit it off a kerb the first day..
Anyone know the best way to make things appear gloss finish in photoshop, can get the colour I'm wanting but just cant make it shiny?????
Thanks..
