haha. no mate, i got banned a few months ago (about 6 months if my memory recalls me correctly) and i was banned for having a disagrement with the site owner.

since then i have spent my time on Corsa2Corsa but am looking for some ideas to mod my car a little further, so thought i would see what other clubs were about.

and yours was mentioned to me by a friend of mine on corsaitalia, so thought i would come and check it out.

:)

sorry if thats a problem.. just let me know ;)

Nah no problem at all. You're welcome here anytime.
i really like the rims you're got. So simple but make an impression.
Put the eyebrows back on if you still have them.
Apart from that, a nice steiny grille would look great.

yea im making some that are slightly deeper (cover more of the light) which will be different.. using fibreglass and P38 filler, (smells ace.. but dont breathe too much or you will be high)

i will post pics of my progress for anyone interested :) the rims are Irmscher but were an option for a 1.8 sri that was sold in the uk, so not many people here had them, i only know of 3 other sets.

and my local dealership want me to pay £300 per rim for replacements :o (sorry i dont know how much that is in aus$ but its a fortune over here.
