Nice phil... I have a question for you.
Kinda related to the pics.
Was reading the article in TV from TOTB and noticed that your inner arches are cut away. Is this so you can check how worn the tyres are?
I've been scratching my **** about this for a few days now.
Its probably a dumbass question.

everyone alls ways points and laughs at that saying its "not strong enough with all the engine bay cut away" . fact is that corsas dont have those inner acrhes anyway, they just have plastic covers which i have removed. But yet people still seem to think that these hold the front of the car together :lol:

corsa's have plastic arch lines, not like nova's with metal one's...
Lol, i noticed that on my cousins Corsa sport, just a piece of plastic where novas have solid steel, it looks weird.

Didnt know they only had plastic inners. lol.
The weight thing did cross my mind and then I told myself I was being a ****.

could do with a t-cut.

T-cut does wonders, spent all day giving my car the best cleaning its ever had, looked the shizzle then today it absolutly p*ssed down with rain!:mad:
Does anyone elses window surrounds and rubbers bleed and get black lines on your bodywork after a while?
Looking very nice phil:thumb:
Do you work for jnc then? Or you get my meaning, did they do the conversion or anything?
looking good mate
fill the rear wiper hole with some filler. otherwise youll get water in the boot.
meanwhile looks spot on
Phil mate, dunno if you noticed but someone seems to have stuck some stickers on your car

I did the conversion myself and i work for JNC, the 2nd stage of "make the gay corsa look bo" is to sort out the engine bay. Already added some silicon hosing under there and tidy'd the wiring but need to wait until all the tools have been done for our silicon hose kits are finished to complete it and also get a nice chrome exhaust manifold with T34.
Its been T-cutted already but there is no red left to T-cut lol, the paint is seriously poor on it, shame really as the shell is actually rot free which makes a change.
The stickers are there to make it faster, as you all know stickers = warp 9
Cool, i sent JNC a while ago asking if they could suply me with some parts but never got a response:confused:
you can get loads of fibreglass panels for a corsa, then it'll be even quicker, it does look much better since i saw it a pvs ealier in the year.:thumb:

yeah sorry about that the site is currently down and under going update ect..
Yeah i have thought about fibreglass panels but its money id rather spend on the engine. Plus if i mash up some panels at the moment i dont care.

You need some Fast and the furious seat covers that will add an extra 25bhp just like the stickers!! Ha every time i come down i ask ya loads of questions about it and look round it!! Thing its cuz i wont it!! looks good mate keep it up and well done at TOTB!!
Wehay !
TREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEES

nah not bothered about the wiper hole, i have a fwe bungs missing in the floor where ive knocked them out but havent put them back in. When your driving in the rain it just sucks water straight up inside the car like a fountain lol
A bodu kit would look proper bo but would weigh me down.
