Very nice motor there mate

Cally aint bad either

just kidding

When you say smooth the bumpers? Personally, I would recommend colour coding the strips, would look much better

Looking forward to your updates bud!!

A straight swap for an XE'd Corsa?

Think you did rather well out of that one!

Wouldn't be the first time.

That's a serious swap, some muppet out there is going to be most upset if they've just swapped a genuine LE for a Corsa!

Keep the bump strips, they look sh*t without them. As Dave said, colour code them. Makes all the difference.

Dave · « **Reply #8 on:** August 21, 2010, 00:41:28 AM »

Sorry, but to be fair, there was no mention of straight swap, which could of implied that he swapped with cash going with his Corsa as part payment

Nevermind though!!
