Yeah im on corsa C, spoken to a company who have said if it sinks at all they will re do it, proper bodywork company so they should be good for the work. An arm rests are the way forward just make sure the handbrakes adjusted up right!

Well ive got my new brakes on finally took a few days due to the disk assembly bolts jamming an me stripping the heads
Also painted the brake disc hats to prevent some of the corrosion and make the car look nicer
Its going in for a re track in the morning and a new wheel bearing on the front left an new tyres on the front

Cars stopping really well, main problem is im boiling the brake fluid, the clutch also is going all gooey so i think ill need to put some DOT5 in to bring the boiling point up changed it twice in three months because ive ruined it now.

Picked up a new sub and a custom enclosure for it
Also picked up my spoiler from the sprayers, just waiting on a dry day to fit it
Also wired in some new footwell lights my blue ones were too chavvy for my liking
