When i 1st got the car

My 1st 2 mods. Lowered 60mm and a front splitter from a mk4 astra

Then i got hold of some 16" fox alloys

As i didnt like the original rear bumper i had it changed for a gsi one and was given a set of read rear lights

All that was need now was an exhaust so i picked up this powerflow back box

After someone had knocked one of my wing mirrors of i thought i may aswell get them colour coded

Still wasnt happy with the rear end of my car or the back box so i decided to get a full system and standard rear lights. I think the rear looks great now

Thanks for all the comments people. The main reason i changed the bumper was the old one had a crack in it. Might go for the mk1 rear again then

Are headlamp protectors basically, sticky back plastic that just goes over the light lense?

Almost they are normally curved bits of perspex, a few mm thick, that cover the headlight and indicator.
