First of all how much money do you have to spend on your car?

Avoid cheap mods like chrome wipers and sunstrips and all that halfords crap as that will make your car look chavvy

Welcome to allcorsa, put up some pics and we can help you further
as for Dearing:

Thats your advice to everyone

lol, right tbh megz i have a red corsa b and im doing bits & bobs, and imo its not 'chavvy', some little mods you could do is;

Tint rear lights,
Depo's (front lights)
Alloys (pick up some cheap)
GSi Spoiler

As clutch says, stay away from the cheap chavvy ****. Save for lowering, wheels, colour coding etc.

Someone post a piccie of Stevies car.... sounds the same colour.

My 2p, stick to subtle changes, its the wave of the future!

welcome along to the forum,

all a car ever needs is a nice set of wheels and some slumpage,

if your car is the same colour as the one abover i would recemend set of 16" speedlines in anthracite wie a drop of between 40-60 mm depending on what sort of practicality you need the car for,

keeps it simple but very nice and smart looking

 

[megz x]

yeh mines the same as the one above! im very impressed u guys are good. ill take ur advice n have a go. post a pic soon thanks xxxxxxxxx

 

[Matthew]

Stay away from any thing that says ripspeed or MW. lol

 

[megz x]

These are the only pics i got at the min, will post some better ones when i get some.

Let me know what you guys think.

 

[Junior Bear]

Just lower it i reckon' and some colour coded post 97 bumpers and your sorted

 

[Mattie]

From those pics there are only a few things I could suggest really cheaply, completly debadge the rear, lose the rear wiper and bung the hole, new set of plates but sticky pad them on, don't screw them, a completly different look.

Oh and a damn good clean, polish and wax, car will look so much better!

 

[Steve]

Same colour and alloys as mine (one demon posted pic of) - nice :thumbs_up:

Colour code your bootlock surround - cheap and easy to do and makes a big difference.

iv bin tryin to find out how much it would be 2 re-spray my bumpers. Most people said it would be betta if i ordered new ones from vauxhall. So i went to my vauxhall garage n they said they could get me prime bumpers n wheel arch bits for like 700 which is a bit too much + the cost of sprayin them. so i was wonderin if i could sand down n prime the bumpers i got n use them! dont know how u do it tho. Howd u do urs steve? xx

Please do not use 'txt tlk' on the forum. It is offensive to the eyes of our members.

steve used spray cans and a fine job he did.

Try ebay you mite find some cheap primered or painted ones
front clicky
rear clicky

Cheers demon

Basically have a look at clutch's spraying guide in the tutorials section - i followed those steps each time I sprayed something and turned out fine each time. Any questions you have feel free to PM me or add me to MSN
