Reallly, desperatley needs the coilovers on it, tomorrows job.
 
I need too sort out the rear shocks first, finding corsa ones on the cheap is a pain.
Washing may commence shortly.
 
What set up are you using then? Corsa b coilies with corsa rear shocks? I've been wondering what I should use but have no idea about the rear set up
 
I have expensive corsa coilovers and i am looking for some rar corsa shocks yep, gonna try experimenting with some ford Ka rear springs i have laying about.
 
Hehe, looking very purple now i've given it a wash.
Needs some attention with a welder.
Lows will commence asap.
 
They are a frank creation. Standard steels fiddled with
i got carried away and coilovers are now on back will be adjusted asap.
Pictures tomorrow.
 
Annoyingly scratched my phones lense it would seem...

Still siting a little too high but waiting for the rears too settle and my Corsa shocks before i go too drastic.
 
Noooo, i like the clean look, may go do some more arse end lowering shortly, making sure i keep this one simple. Feel i slightly over did the red one.
 
Incoming, ok so i said i wouldn't go over the top with the lows.
Well i was bored and i had an angle grinder at my disposal, what did you think was going too happen.

Unbelievably happy with it haha.
 
Haha, i like the 14's people are tying too convince me too get lower profile tyres but they look much less in real life.
 
The wheels looked spot on with the red one weirdly they do look alot bigger on this, unsure why but still like them.
 
Centre caps are staying silver i'm affraid.
1.3 inlet cam in, red rocker cover on temporarily while i spray one of my others.
Frank manifold will be going on soon.
Not sure about bump strips yet.
