colour coded red clusters/boot grab handle
white Astra GSi 15s
lowered 40-50mm
removed rubbing strips
anthracite front and back bumpers
spoilerless tailgate (making it look like what it is, a base model)
recent mods since pic:
'1.2' badge put on tailgate ready for when i get 100bhp+ GTE 1.6i lump in on saturday.
'the red shed' in the rear window in place of the 'www.RoyBacer.co.uk' sticker.
totally buffed/compounded/waxed until it looks like it's had a full respray with about 10 layers of laquer...
so the question is...is it clean?

Austin Nova...very valid point.
Ste, it is mostly standard, i was just getting opinions on the wheels and general bodywork condition etc when i posted the pics.
Phil, was it really worth saying that?! probably not, but recent comments have made me expect that sort of thing from u...and i dont even know u! think what people who meet u in real life think...lol
PAg, they are indeed hub caps. the white wall wheels are coming a week on friday.

oh, and the anthracite bumper thing...the piccies are a bit dark, they aren't as lighter grey as say dec's, but they are a light grey and were sprayed about a month ago...

ste, engine mods are as follows:
zorst, filter, 2.0 throttle or air flow somthing or other? i can't remember what it's called...
full service etc, excellent runner

i should have just put everything in one post? lol (kept reading it afterwards and finding things i hadn't replied to..lol)
ste, the red tint is literally flame red paint sprayed lightly over the lenses.
it makes you indicators flash red though, and your reverse light pink (very me :p) so i'm replacing them with standard one's when i can be assed.

I think it looks great! The wheels look different, which i like. needs de-locking, and an alloy fuel cap though.

i prefer the normal fuel cap colour coded.
The name is misleading - I am not wise, or wooden.

I think he means a 2L throttle body. Although i don't think it is a straight swap, you need an adapter plate from Novatech.

the car does look ok, but I definately think you need lower profile tyres!! other than that, nice clean car.

john, they are 195/50s i think it's the dirt on them that makes em look massive, they aren't that big in person.
Mark, as follows:
Car (minter) ?600
Wheels (mint, new tyres all round) ?200
Springs: ?60 delivered (Puma one's from Larkspeed)
Cleanliness: ?4 for a jet wash...lol
am colour coding the rear bumper and fitting a colour coded GTE front bumper with big mesh cut out and splitter, similar to the pink nova with pink speedlines etc that was in total Vauxhall

ged, I think you may be right!! after looking at them again, I think it is probably the contrast between the white wheels and the black tyres that makes them look bigger.
