Yo ppl. Im getting a brand new Black Corsa Sri 1.4 on september 1st. Im gonna tint the windows soon after i get it. After that im not sure whether i should make any modifications to it as i don't wanna drop the value of the car much. Altho i am tempted to install a new front bumper.
Any ideas? Any opinions? Also should get leather seats or sports seats?
All ideas welcome. What should i do?

if it aint already to late u can get the windows tinted from the factory, thus saving u the hassle of getting it done else where (and i think vaux is cheaper then most other companys)

Im getting the windows tinted from Pentagon for £160. So Luca2020 u thnk getting them too dark wouldn't suit it? Iv been told that by a couple of people but i aint sure. I was thinking midnight at the back and smoke on the front ones. But then again im gonna leave it 2 pentagon to advise me on it when i get it done. any ideas?
I won't be doing nuttin about aloys just now i dont think coz it comes factory fitted wid 16inch alloys anyway. There not gr8 but there alrite i think.

I bought one on a 02 plate, the newer ones look so much better, wish i'd have waited. As for modding why don't you get the full i-line kit from vauxhall, it's expensive but looks well. I'm hoping to get it soon

this is what i have got, and what i recomend u get : get the same level of tint all the way round, imo it looks 100x better than really dark at the back and only light at the front

I have the 16" Sri wheels, i love them.
I'd get the Irmscher kit, it looks nice and subtle, but improves the car alot.
I've done a few little mods to my car (look in my garage) that may interest you.

Buy the irmscher kit (i-line kit from vauxhall), it suits the car well and will fit with no probs.

Most neons are illegal tho. washer jets will just get me pulled over and fined no doubt. undercar neons are even more risky
