Id like a standard grille, but i fear id struggle to get it painted.

Might try and butcher the slats from one...

Apparently its a MK1 Astra Orange?

de-colour code the interior
de-colour code the skirts
de-6x9 the rear shelf
16" comps/speedlines in silver or black
Possibly black bumper stripe depending on what colour you go for with the wheels n skirts

Carbon fibre bonnet would look good imo ! it looks alright how it is but personally i just think that it wants the mass of orange breaking up, how about painting the roof black too ?

Stanley
