Star Silver X16XE
Well, just got rid of my astra van for this..







So soon as i got it home i decided to fit my Gmax front shocks and springs as it only had springs on standard shocks and they were knocking really bad everytime i hit a bump..



Also ordered these but i am just waiting for H4 bulbs to get delivered..



They are 3000K.. Golden yellow.

Wheels needed a respray as the paint had flaked here and there so i tested out the wheel colour with a spray can i had lying round..

Being primered..



After..



And fitted..



I think they look quite nice and if i decide to do them all that colour then the arches and bumper tops will be going the same colour.

And picked a set of there up earlier off my mate..



90mm rear springs.. havnt fitted them yet though, will get them done tomorrow.

What you all think?
