Thought that plough would clean up alright, mounting it up seems to have taken all the bend out of it too :)

Looks alright though, get some Upol bumper paint on it, what I was gonna do, annoys the purists and should look top notch, can park it next to said purist too, and if you use the dark grey rather than mid, theirs will looked faded, win lol

Nice.

I think those astra(?) wheels suit it really well actually. I'd only ever seen them on Ade's before, til I went to PVS this year and they were EVERYWHERE lol

Erm well I have a redtop and everything wating to fit it orginal plan was 1.16v as I would like to take it on trackdays but i had the c20xe in a astra sport i broke and got offered everyting i need to convert plus more for a bargin sum so iI thought id be silly not to do it. so currently im trying to build it as cheap as poss(aiming for under 1K) and im well on track:thumb:
Knowing me though I will prob end up painting everything up before it gets finished or fitted to the car but dont want it mega mint as I want to abuse itlol

Jack:
Yep it an astra sport steel its auctually my spare as it normally runs on the sport alloys but as you said the look of these steels has grown on me so almost tempted tp put a set on it:thumb:
