My New Astra Mk 4
« on: June 19, 2009, 09:08:51 AM »
Ok so some of you will know i used to drive my lil white corsa which i really really loved but got rid, which was all my sisters fault HAHA as she had another little boy so now i got 2 nephews i really needed a bigger.

So i wanted to stay vauxhall and baught a mk4 astra on an 03 plate...
unfortunatly i didnt take any pics when it was totally standard, so here's a few pics of how it stands at the mo...







As you can see all its got done at the mo is my old alloys off my corsa and all windows tinted :D

Hoping to get fukll sportex system next month and also a badgless grill :D

All being well my subs will get fitted later on today so will post some pics up of when i get that done! and before i was my car on saturday or sunday im thinkin about de-badging the boot however not sure if to try it or not!?

what you guys think if so ill give my bro in-lw a nudge to help me lol as i am totally useless lmao!

well if your gonna use it for moving kids about and comfort i wouldnt jam 18's under it,maybe just keep the 15's and drop it 40mm that would firm it up a bit but not too much.
thats my 50pence worth anway  :D

its a very hard game at the mo  :lol: but i will get a bit easyer  :victory:

 the stickers are good quality for only a few squid,have a look at the best mod for any vauxhall
and if you save up a few beer tokens you can have the calibra to go with it  :sarcastic:
