first of all

another 5 door astra to the club

looks very clean mate, loving those wheels too, suit the car 100% nice looking install too, will look awesome when its finished, like what you have done with it

clear side repeators and take the V and the badge off the grill and she will be stunning

Nice car m8 same colour as mine i think only other one ive seen

 

[jon_16v]

hi thanks for the comments, but im keeping the splitter, i think it gives it a different look than going down the GSi route.
i cant find centre caps there rare as f**k and they dont make em now.
Gsi rear lights are on the way and just got my new alarm fitted, so i got remote central locking and the windows go up and bla bla bla
ive got some eye brows to fit and a new grill, but its just getting round to it.
ill keep people up dated as i keep going.

[johnsastra16v]

unsure about the front speakers the way you ahve put them, but each to there own

love the splitter. i have added an astra coupe one to my astra

 

[jon_16v]

got round to covering it today, not totaly finished, but its getting there.

let me know what you think.

 

[BenC]

looks good mate.i love that colour when its nice and shiney!!!i bet that system pumps abit??? ive got one of them subs but a 15 inch and thats fairly loud.

 

[jon_16v]

yea they pump, alot, expecially now i changed my amp to a mono block one.
had the polish out today after i washed it, looks awsome, im gonna take some sunny pics tomorrow all being well.

 

[Niffer022]

looks loads better now you have clothed your boot mate

 

[jon_16v]

thought id finally get round to giving you all an update on the astra.

well, i picked up my irmsher kit for the astra today that i won on the bay for a very nice £68 , did some trial fits. heres a few pics.

wont be getting it sprayed up till next month so its gonna sit in the garage till then.

also sprayed up my inlet manifold, it was filthy. so half an hour later, it was nice and shiny.

and finaly i had my first atempt at making a de-badged grill, i think it went ok lol

let me know what to all think so far.
