hi guys as you may or may not know i bought damos old car off here from sum pikeys in blackpool, anyway its in a safe home now and ive put alot of money and effort in to get her looking a beaut so. before it had a annoying front spitter(nowfor sale) and was faded with rusty arches falling off skirts, rusty steels and looked scrapworthy,

i gave it new arches and rolled then full respray and some very nice, not too common wheels, i really like it now and gets crazy attention, any comments appreciated thanks jake

looks nice that pal, keep it as is, the pinstripe is hardly noticeable to be honest and the GTE side skirts look alright :thumb: Astra Fanblades suit it too

thanks for the comments guys, i like the pinstripe! but im thinking of putting some sr door viynl on, make it a bit more of a rep, next stages are red sr interior or sri or gsi, full underseal, and give the engine and engine bay a good clean. is there any local meets to me? id like to come to one! going pvs this year too:thumb:
