    Astra mark 3 with a bee sting

    guys you have to fit a bee sting, if you havent got one then do it, even if you dont plan to mod your bodywork at all you should atleast fit a bee sting, it looks fooking phat!!!

    my mk3 astra came with one from the factory lmao

    selblock - if you just spray that bit that you have smoothed over it will look complete tosh. I hate to think what your car looks like

    i spent half a day down bodyshop talking to the bloke. if you dont respray the whole panel, then it will look pants, most noticeably under street lights.

    i dont want no bodge...so if i do it, i want it done properly.

    I've done this, had my rear quarter aerial hole welded up and the whole rear quarter spray - in order to blend in properly.... a body shop did this for me for £40, which i couldn't complain about....

    I do agree with Adam tho, if your going to do something - do it properly!

    yes but if you also remember I did that because some little ****er snapped it off, not because I wanted to fit a bee sting
