are they all made from plastic because it seems when you paint the plastic ones they fuck up very soon after. Are some made from some sort of metal or something?

They are all made from plastic? Because I'm 99% sure they don't make any out the factory in nautilus blue and when you paint them, they usually flake or fuck up.

phwoah, you can tell that's a fresh respray, that or you have buffed it up pretty damn good!! looks gorgeous if you don't mind me saying so! I love the colour, it's the best corsa B colour IMO. I take it yours is a Vegas model as well? I think so because they come with the sunstrip on the windscreen out the factory and yours has one too.

I thought it was a vegas, 1.2i or 1.4i? I guess that's why you swapped the engine maybe? due to it's terrible mpg? I need a new engine, I get 25mpg for £5 of petrol now @ £1.10 a litre.
