Right, i brought this corsa off a mate after destroying my last motor thanks to a drunk tit in a beemer, pulling out of a pub without headlights on. Resulting in a thumb broken in 5 places and permanent loss of feeling in it. But.. life goes on.
Just a few pics after the operations.
Anyways.. as i said, i brought it off a mate, and im not going to pretend i did all the work myself, because that is FARRRRR from the truth. Im sure some of you might have already seen him on the site as 'Rickish1'. He did most of the work, mainly the engine conversion.. aswell as the calibra leathers, lowering, digidash.. esentially, all the hard work! And he probably did a lot more i havent even mentioned.
A few pics of her, the day she arived! a few months back now 
Soo, the plan is a 'euro/clean' look, hopefully a small bit of smoothing, nothing big, keep it subtle 
Heres a few pics of her.. i say a few, but i mean.. probably too many! hope i dont bore you lot.
Chekered roof 
Momo steering wheel, plus the digi dash
Calibra leathers and genuine wind deflectors
X14XE conversion
Opel badge and Astra splitter
Change of steering wheel, and a Opel horn
Smooth body colour boot handle
Smoothed rear wiper
Some OCD cleaning
No car is complete without shitty stickers ha
carbon effect, probs wont be staying long
Refurbed 3 spokes
New kicker speakers, FARRRR TO EXPENSIVE, but s**t the bed there good.
Start of the stealth build
Okay, so the plan is to smooth the front number plate recess, got some Nova SR steels to get banded with some streched tires, a stealth boot build, and some other bits and bobs here and there.
ill keep posting, and please feel free to leave any comments good or bad, and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE leave ideas etc!
Thanks for looking guys and girls

looks like a good start 
is it just the pictures or is the colour match not quite right on the boot, other than that looks spot on, keep it up
