Rear of Astra (pics please)

[Daz©]

I'm kinda bored with the ass end of my Astra and I think its time to change. I'm thinking of removing the standard matt black back panel on the boot and replacing it with a shiny one of a newer Astra and leaving it badgless, but putting the newer type of GSi badge under the black panel on the right hand side.

What has everyone else got?????????

Fancy a carbon version - exact copy of the stadard panel?

Have been speaking to a very helpful Swedish guy that has the moulds - said a price in the region of 140euro's...

Whats that in Queens dosh??

Roughly £100ish when factored for postage dude.

Can also supply bonnets for around £400 - but would need payment up front

Thats pretty good. May think about.

Anyone know how much the shiny ones go for at scrappys?

 

[strad]

you could fit one down yer trouser leg if yer wearin baggy pants lol

Good idea!

Do the newer panels still have the number plate screw holder thingys???

 

[Paul]

if im correct, the plate screws through the plastic and then right into the boot, so if they didnt line up, you could always drill holes or make new one that dont foul anything behind it.

Get a normal plastic one and get it painted Ill even source and paint it for you for erm, say £35, alot i know, but pick colour and ill make sure its looks better than any factory paint

I only want a newer version one. The phase 2 ones look glossy and satin.

I shall keep the offer in mind thanks Paul

Like this maybe?

Is that a real carbon one or a huge sticky sheet?

 

[Astramarkus]

Real carbon.

Sweet!!!!!!!!!

Does that sticker say "Look at Opel now"????

What does that mean????

 

[Astramarkus]

"Look at Opel now" was a slogan in the early ninties. Vauxhall is named Opel in the rest of Europe

Ah I see.

Yeah I knew Opel is everywhere except UK.

I really want one - and am hoping to sort out a deal with Markus
