Hi, just thought id show pictures of my corsa, currently I have colour coded the interior and boot lock surround, i have tinted the back windows and put on some tsw alloys. It also has a spoiler on the back. I also have a system in it, a sub and speakers on the parcel shelf.
It is a 1.2 1995, it has the odd few scratches, and a very small crack in the bumper and few scratches, which dont bother me as this is my first car and ill probable end up doing it myself :laugh:
I will be putting an exhaust on this weekend, just a backbox, i dont want to chav it out too much

What do you guys think?

Not sure if the red and green interior goes together but apart from that it looks fine.

I know what you mean about not bothering with scratches etc. I have just been spraying bits of my girlfriends for her because its her first car and once she passes her test she will probably be looking to upgrade after about a year of driving anyway.

 

[lynx69]

it was green and blue (like dark bmw blue) which went together pretty well, but the paint flaked off because i didnt use the right primer, and i ran out of the blue so i couldnt respray it so i just used red which i had lying around.

Yeah, as soon as i turn 18 im going to look at buying a golf or maybe a bmw if insurance isnt too sky high.
But i dont really want to sell the corsa so ill probably still keep it as a run around, its my little turtle lol

 

[dearing5]

looks alright mate, lower it as well

 

[Steve]

Lynx - do you want this moved into the projects thread and you can keep us updated with any progress?

 

[jim610]

nice little motor mate. is that a montana edition?

 

[corsa_power]

Love the colour of that! get a new front number plate and it will look alot newer

 

[Tim]

Take the speakers out of the rear parcel shelf, they wont be giving out the best sound with a a sub there as well.
Other than that its looks smart, needs lowering though lol

I know what you mean about thinking about getting a new car, love the corsa but just want something faster lol

 

[lynx69]

@geebs, yeah please.

Yeah its a Montana, whats so special about that? the colour? lol

I know what you mean about the speakers, but ive done my sound settings perfect so that both the sub and speakers give out a very nice sound, well i didn't do it, my mate whos obsessed with car systems has done it so it sounds pretty good.
Luckily i bought the car already colour coded, and with a spoiler, otherwise i would have done it myself, so saves my time and money
I debadged the boot aswel, removed the vauxhall corsa badge.
It had a dealership sticker on too (camberly sport, or something like that) and i removed it all but left the sport and drove with sport written on the back for a couple of weeks
Yeah its too slow, the top on this is 115mph but the time it takes to pickup is unbelievable lol,

 

[Steve]

Thats it moved for you mate :thumbs_up:

 

[James]

This is a nice car and I love those coloured corsa's. Not ken on the interior colour choise mate! Rest of the car looks awesome though, you can sort those scratches out easily enough if you wanted too - but yes if it's your first car you may do a couple yourself lol, that's why i'm not sure if i wanna do my bumpers..

Have a look at peoples project threads to get some ideas. Lots of cheap subtle mods you can do

 

[Clutch]

looks good :thumbs_up: seriously needs lowering though! nice rich colour too i quite like it.

 

[lynx69]

I quite like the interior colour tho looks better in person, as it matches the car nicely, i know the red is a bit too much and doesnt look too nice but oh well, ill probably change it soon knowing me.

Yeah the colours nice "Rio Verde"...looks like a little turtle

The alloys have done the car so much justice, it looked so odd with the wheel caps i had on before :laugh:

Im not sure about the exhaust, i can get a scorpion dtm exhaust off a friend, but do you think thats a bit too much, its the twin port style exhaust you see on many e30 bmw's.

Is the exhaust backbox just a matter of chop and weld?

Also how much have your insurance companies added on top for alloys and exhaust?

 

[jim610]

@geebs, yeah please.

Yeah its a Montana, whats so special about that? the colour? lol

I ,

just woundered because mine a montana i thinks it's just the colour an the sunroof.

 

[Josh]

get some green spray or get replacement parts for the interior as the red really doesnt go

 

[Lyds_corsa_b]

Love the car. Not sure about the interior though

 

[venney]

ive just noticed ur wires down the side of ur car... looks a complete mess lol! tidy it, it wont take that long, and ull be much safer and it will look much nicer 2

 

[V0NST3V3]

Looks really nice, loving the red and green, think it looks quite good actually

 

[AdHeath1989]

I like it aswel mate. The red and green doesn't look too bad, its the same colour scheme that Aston Martin used for that race car model they've got.

 

[Liam]

New reg plates now

Looks good....spray the whole dashboard??
