Wat dya reckon???

[doug2783]

Just uploaded some pics of my car and wondered what you guys thought??

[shug_19]

Looks very clean and tidy for it's age. Think the changes you have made, Ie wheels, spoiler and lights look really good. Only thing im not 100% is the sunstrip but it does look good on the car, not out of place.

A great example.

How much time and money have you spent to get it that way?

I assume it's a 1.6?

[johnhara1]

I like that.

[Bicco]

Nice - I`ve got a thing for black wheels...

[Orange Peel]

Nice - I'd remove the sunstrip and think about the tints as they're shouting 'stop me' to the police.

[CraigGreen]

Pretty cool. Needs the GSi or Irmscher tinted rear clusters & lose the Red paint off the fr calipers. Otherwise, smooth.

Cheers guys!! Iv tried to keep it simple and use what ive got rather than make it something its not. Yes its the 1.6 its never gona be a rocket but i dont mind too much of a cruiser!!! Funny you should say about the irmscher lights i bought a set not too long ago the smoked ones of course just waiting for some decent weather to get out there and wash it to get some decent pics not 100% on them though but i never am on anything ive done!! would consider losing the tints but not the sunstrip unless i fitted to the inside of the screen to get back the glass shine. SHUG 19 ive owned the car for 4 years now and just done things as and when ive decided they needed changing. have done the graphics thing(didnt stay on long!!) changed colour of the wheels several times just to find thye right shade went low then lower when i got 18"s and these where the most expensive sometimes you dont have to spend a fortune to get a nice looking car just the right bits!! Any way cheers guys nice to know i havent made a mess and no one said paint my bumpers silver which surprised me! Lookin forward to the summer should see some of you at PVS!!!!

You might not like it, but if you want my honest opinion then brace yourself.....















































I like it.

[andy_1984]

oh forgot to mention, are you planning on color coding the bumpers ?

[doug2783]

Alright andy1984 they are bk 121 repainted with custom centre caps but as to where you can get them ???? I got mine from a shop in fastcar mag but as i dont buy it any more?? just checked on bk's website and there on there so would think most places would be able to get them for you?! NO im not planning to paint the bumpers i thought more people would have said that but.... at the last pv show as far as i was aware i was the only astra g with the half black bumpers and think they suit the car well dont no why more people dont do it???

[davedv6]

That looks sweet mate something different to the normal kinda looks like a sensible euro look car.

[16vboi]

for an astra in that shape it dont look bad man

[andy_1984]
