Why didn't you put it back to standard when you sold it?
Surely you could have got a fair bit of money back on the mods and still got a good price on a standard car?
If i'd made a car look that good over standard I wouldn't want to think some prick
was just going to make it look worse.
Not...
Welcome to the club, it's a laugh on here but you do need a good sense of humour and a thick skin,
as theres quite a bit of banter but it's generally good natured.
Theres a West Mids group you can join, and the West Mids section in local meetings has quite a few meets
coming up in the area...
Glad you loving your new car mate, are you leaving the mirrors white or colour coding them?
Also are you leaving the front lip thing white or changing that?
Ive done a crude photoshop because the fact that the stripes don't go all the way to the front annoys me.;)
That Astra is f*cking horrendous, I thought people only put neons under their cars in PlayStation games,
i've not seen anything that bad since the last time I played Need for Speed Underground.
If you need a spoiler to finish the back off, I would go subtle like this.
My opinion of course, might not be to every ones tatse but it got to be better
than having the Clifton suspention bridge on the back of your car.
I'm only telling you what happened, I drove there at 80mph and the rpms were at 4k
drove back at 80 and they were at 3900rpm.
F*ck knows how but thats what happened, might be a coincidence but it's the truth.
Matched inlest did nothing for me except releive me of £170
oh.. and at motorway cruising speeds the rpms had dropped by 100,
no real power increase that I could feel.
All you need now is a vented bonnet and it will look like every other chav/ned Subaru on the road.
The car was coming along nicely and I was thinking, i'll have no problems spotting that around the Coventry area
as it looks different to all the others I see driving around, sadly no more.
IMO...
Paint flick the black with something bright and vulger.

Graphics are gash but it is a drift car so anything goes I guess, some time effort & skill gone in to applying that lot.
I'm currently in the process of applying for a job with a printer/sign makers that does vinyl wraps on vehicles,
hope I get it as I want to get into this, and i'm guessing...
At first I thought OK, you could save that with a vinyl wrap, standard wheels, bonnet & rear clusters,
then I saw the interior......ruined, beyond saving.
Ah the advantage of being 35 and having cheap insurance, i've done loads to my car and not one thing has changed my policy,
but then I am with a modified car insurer that won't insure people below a certain age.
Sorry lads;)
I know it's boring but open a bank account, every time you've saved enough money for a new mod put it in the bank,
then after a year or so you will be able to insure a quicker car, and you'll have some no claims discout if you're lucky.
Seeing as it's your first car you're probably excited and...

F*ck knows what town he's in. Think it's Bristol.
Parked on some High St as he walked past wearing his sandwich board.
Tonights episode C4 8pm
I tend to do my oil change myself as it's pretty easy, but I don't need any more history with my car,
at some point it will be a track car so I don't plan on selling it,
an 8 year old 172 with 75k miles on it doesn't seem to sell for much these days.
Don't live your life based on what other people say, opinions are all well and good
but some of the mods on here were new at some point and now there normal.
Pro Race1.2s, carbon bonnets, vinyl wraps etc.
This ones not too bad
K-tec already sell chav kits, so I doubt the people that but them are going for the kind of subtle design you want,
they probably wouldn't sell enough because most CS owners prefer the standard look, and chavs prefer the tw*t look. LOL
The last link I posted has loads of designs but like you...
