April 5, 2008body, bodykits, paintcorsa, vauxhalladmin

This Corsa is somewhat amazing. Not only does it have a wide bodykit and beautiful alloy wheels but the paint job is simply stunning. It is best described as a walnut effect finish giving the impression of wood from a distance.

Calibra 6 spoke alloy wheels.

December 4, 2007wheelscalibra, vauxhalladmin

These Vauxhall calibra 6 spoke alloy wheels from wolfrace look great. They are prone to kerbing because of the way the spokes protrude. It is a shame there is no centre cap as this would finish the wheel off nicely. Continue reading Calibra 6 spoke alloy wheels. →

Corsa crystal rear lights.

October 15, 2007lights, wheelscorsa, vauxhalladmin

The rear lights on most cars are prety boring with just coloured pieces of plastic over the bulbs. Adding new rear lights is one of the easiest DIY styling mods and is often the first styling mod an owner will do. Continue reading Corsa crystal rear lights. →

Astra Camoflage styling – if you’ve got it hide it!

September 29, 2007exteriorAstra, vauxhalladmin

Vauxhall corsa Body kit and roof spoiler.

September 23, 2007bodykits, exhaust, Top500, wheelscorsa, vauxhalladmin

How to make the average looking shopping/family car look mean:-

Spray the car Orange, fit a full bodykit and very conspicuous roof spoiler! For added effect add a bank of 4 chrome silencers poking out the rear (I don’t know why they call them silencers – these are loud! Full Ice install and lowered suspension help to raise this Vauxhall Corsa above the Average and really make it stand out.

Corsa sparkly paint.

August 16, 2007paintcorsa, vauxhalladmin

This Corsa has a marvellous sparkly paint effect. After the first main colour coat the paint is coated with tiny holographic chips. A very thick clearcoat has been added to the top to seal everything in and protect the paint. As the paint catches the sunlight you get a rainbow sparkly effect! This looks way cool. The fully contoured and scuplted bonnet accentuate the effect and add to the appearance of this great paint job. I know sparkly paint is not to everyones taste but you’ve got to agree it is a real head turner.

June 21, 2007body, bodykits, exterior, Top 250Astra, vauxhalladmin

I’m sure you’ll agree that this is a one off show car. The front bumper has been split open to reveal a large intercooler/radiator. This show car makeover is so complete the origins of the car are completely obscured (Any guesses what this is?). Continue reading Cool coupe body styling in orange →
