Wot u think of the styling/mods on my Astra mk3?
Yeah i like it. GSi bigmouth bumper, rer bumper extension, not sure what skirts, GSi spoiler, Kahn RSR replica 17"s..
what else am i missing?
nice grille.
when removing the black OE slats, did u filler up the holes left? if there was any left?
Astra Coupe 2.2 16v
Yep john had to fill 5 holes left by slats, 1 semi circular left by badge and 2 gaps on the V left by the badge.
Easy - the side skirts are off a bmw 3 series coupe - about 30mm lower than m3 ones for astra (to tight to get proper beemer m3s)
Also to mention ITS FOR SALE £2650ono (see limk below)
Also wot are pep's opinion on modded 5 door cars and how well do you think mine looks, Cheers.
nice. mines a 5door too
5door gsi reps look cool. well some do..
but getting gsi skirts on looks amazing! but not very straight forward
Astra Coupe 2.2 16v
Very nice! Grill looks cool too

Very nice mate.
I you can't sell it, and you break it, give me a bell. I'll have the front and rear bumpers, boot, rear lights off you straight away!

Roll on Billing 2012 the dodgems are coming!!
Yeah, was thinkin of breakin it but not to bits, just put it back to standard and sell bits -
which wud be-
Springs,
Bumpers
Wheels
Skirts
Mirrors
Spoiler
Exhaust
induction kit
wheels. etc
But would really like somone to take the lot rather than undo all my nice work, Know wot i mean.
I'm after a car with a bit more class and prefferably a diesel, lookin at beemer 525 tds or Audi tdi. Something sensible?
Looks bloomin nice mate i can tell ya that!
Ohh yeh, also, wot alloys you rollin that on?
Is that a Janspeed exhaust?
One dog goes one way and the other goes the other.
And this guy's saying, "Whaddya want from me?"
looks nice for 5 door, love the rear splitter and front bumper but not to keen on v-grille. Gsi grill is ok but a m8 of mine has got a std one and cut the slats out, i think that looks the best (will see if i have a pic handy)
I personally love the grill this way, I think is very original and not seen one like it anywhere.
Wheels are kn rs type i think, they are 17" kahn rsr replicas.
Exhaust is scorpion twin monza fully stainless cat back for the gsi.
Didn't like the gsi grill, didn't suit the car, wud like a reiger infinity grill but too expensive, i think ill stick to mine, more original and personal me thinks.
I've seen an original grill with slats removed (phase 1) and it took me a while to work it out?
Are u on about a v grill or phase 1 D8MOF?
As for rear splitters, I used to sell em on ebay but demand dropped off and was taking to much time.
looks real nice that mate i dont like the grille thou

phase 1 ,will try and find picOriginally Posted by evomaster3000
ive got a 5 door k plate one, looking to do more or less the same, except chop out the gsi front bumper recess!
how does the gsi stainless fit? is it just a straight swap? what about mountings and the join to the cat?
The exhaust is a straight fit to phase 2 astras phase 1 ones need modification to the back box hangers as on the phase 2 and gsi there are 2 hangers but altho in slightly different places a longer rubber mount can be used to fit gsi systems to the phase 2, and phase 1 only has one single hanger.
but apart from that it's a bit of menouvering to get the 3" pipe clear of all feul tanks and other stuff it could knock against.
Do u mean like the bit on the number plate so like a bigmouth conversion?looking to do more or less the same, except chop out the gsi front bumper recess!
