Good start! :) Colour coding will make a big difference IMO.

The pic is too big as you can't see the whole car at once. Try editing your post and putting a smaller pic there.

smacke
11-04-2004, 18:55
i orderd over the phone but got an email the other day saying that the stuff i ordered was out of stock so i wont have them till middle of next week but why couldnt they just say over phone?

Darren

Dunno mate - i order £900 worth of stuff the other day and it all got delivered the next day - however i made sure it was all in stock before i paid my money :D

smacke

mine only came to £280 but you would think they'd have the commen sence to say it was out of stock whilst i was on the phone so i could maybe's order something else..got a nice spoiler comming havent seen any corsa's on here with it

or maybe it is cos the place u foned up orders the bits fromthe supplier when u place an order.

i have it on authority that the place has very little stock if its who i amthinking of :roll:

Like i said i know loads or people including my self that have ordered from scott and never had any problems - i have never even spoke to anyone that has!!!

Scott sorted everything out for my car - did me all the bits for £900 saving me just over £150 on the prices he states...

He also sorted out my car with Midas Styling aranging dates for me to go down etc....

Hes a top bloke - spoke to Midas and they agree, everythings sorted and my car should be done soon - mainly thanks to Scott sorting everything out for me :D

Tints are a possible, but those rear light are a definite! It doesn't look lowered (or is it my eyes?) there's another job! :)

smacke
12-04-2004, 11:36
m-dot - yeah you get alsorts of silver bits on the active..lol..even get the white dails and silver trim round the speedo..maybe cause it's the new 04 active

smacke
12-04-2004, 11:39
ka$h - nope i havent lowered it yet a humming and harring whether too as the council got carried away with speed bumps and that where i live :(

Does lowering a Corsa C 30mm on 17s really make it undriveable over humps? If it does I dont see the point in lowering it that far if the wheels just scrape the arches everytime you go over a hump??

Chewy
14-04-2004, 15:20
mine is fine over speed bumps even with the front spoiler on and it's lowered -30mm

Sinth
21-04-2004, 18:52

smacke
21-04-2004, 18:58

ka$h
21-04-2004, 20:11
