    MK4 astra van tidy up

    Thought i would start this on my van.
    well when i bought it the front bumper, back bumper and rear door had been rubbed down to get painted but never did so the first thing i did was spray them bits and debadge the grill.

    night i got the van:



    before spraying:



    getting sprayed:





    Sprayed:




    so got a coupe bumper for it cheap so decided to paint it and put it on. after seign it on my van am to to sure about it so im bidding an a astra prodrivr bumper on ebay for it and got a set of astra gsi snowflakes for it aswell.

    Dnno if I'd have gone for a coupe bumper with thomas' van already having that done, i'd have tried a different route! Looks good though, what other plans u got?

    Sounds good! Will look good with the snow flakes. Who sprayed the bumpers/boot? Plenty what u can do to them vans anyway. You could modify your standard headlights to be depo'd the same as gsi ones easy enough

    Thanks Gary. I'm hoping it will look even better with a Gsi bumper.

    Got my Gsi headlights in the other day. will get a couple pics up soon.
    and got a message today saying my Gsi bumper had been sent. More pics to come when i get the bumper.

    Re: MK4 astra van tidy up

    looks fine, though the grills would finnish it! They are fairly cheap, and theres a few companys doing aftermarket fogs (fitted some on my cousins vec b gsi bumper, iirc they were like £15, id imagine genuine gm ones would be 3 or 4 times that)
