- this is a gsi rep???
I like them Carl, very smart
I'd change the wheel for a Corsa B one, it's a bit smaller so looks slightly better but also keeps the safety side of it too

yeah i did think about the corsa b side of it, duno if i have the tools though
Two torx screws on the back, nut under the airbag and then a steering wheel puller (or a big hammer) is what you need iirc 
sure someone's got them buddy

very smooth mate looks spot on

just one thing, dont you get the temp to the max, once you have the less airflow front bumper? (gsi)?
does it smoke?
hehe

ive wired in a switch to turn the fan on myself, it does get hot with the gsi bumper. it smokes alittle, but not very much. id love a better turbo upgrade but im not good as you are with your know how on turbos ive a bigger intercooler to fit. and going to cut away the bit the numberplate bolts to, for better airflow. any info on how i can make a turbo setup as good as yours?

Got the shaft sorted yet mate?
now thats a nice corsa, hmmm turbo upgrade time, what ya recon Carl?
well the astra is now off the road due to the rad letting go, i knew it was ****ed before hand but decided take it off the road and get some jobs done to it, got the old rad out friday after work, what a nightmare! new one should be here by tuesday i hope. so its sat on axle stands at mo.
decided to get the front wheels off and clean them, the one was coverd in grease and oil as the cv boot has popped off once again! grrr, think while the wheels are off ill rub them down and paint them.
if ive got the funds this month ill get some more paint and finish off the new gsi front bumper and get that fitted, if not then that will be next month!
also decided to paint my grey dash to black with some vynal spray.
nothing exciting i know

Looks good mate, always thought you had a black dash for some reason lol
I was gonna do that but got talked into just fitting one, looks good though mate fair play
