new snap of lusty (from above)

[lusty v-tec]

The other night thought i'd take a pic of lusty from my window as I thought she looked quite sweet on the drive.

Here it is:

lighting outside wasn't great so doesn't show the full array of colours as well as it does in the sun.

 

[ditz]

hmm.

 

[Lewis_S]

phahahahahaha :lolup: are u sure

 

[dutty_112]

Rusty..

 

[CH33MA]

rather have the astra

 

[davesport172]

not a fan mate but you've clearly put a lot of money/ time into it so respect for that.

 

[Hazza]

R u a badboy?

 

[Lewis_S]

how much filler is holding that bodykit together ? have u got any pics from back in the day when it was a primered beast

 

[Nigel]

As much as I'm not a fan of the kit, it is well finished and Ed does look after it.

Fairplay!

 

[Bluebeard]

Lusty, can we have a proper thread with some detailed pics of your car? I've never seen it properly and tbh, it looks like its been really well done.

 

[Paul.]

each to their own but i think it looks shocking

 

[Chrisjk]

R u a badboy?

Just noticed that sticker lol.
Im in two minds, the old man in me says no but my essex roots say yeh!
P.s needs turinis

 

[leeds_182]

Pow Pow Pow.

 

[Michael172]

I admire your efforts mate, but i just dont like the car. You need to sell it if you possibly can and get a good car.

 

[ditz]

R u a badboy?

but my essex roots say yeh!

im not overly sure i like the way you are portraying essex there mate

 

[Chrisjk]

OK ill narrow it down ditz, my colchester roots.. that better

 

[lusty v-tec]

Thanks for your kind words guys..

I'm going to dig out a cd which the bodyshop gave me. It has a few pics of it when it was stripped down so i'll put them up when I find them.

TBH hardly any filler is holding it together. Parts were bonded on (the rear spoiler, valence, and side skirts).

Everything else has been put on with screws and other special clips.

The de-locking and removal of the side repeaters from the wings were done via plates being welded in. They didn't simply fill the holes like some places do.

edit: 9k spent in total, however its been thru various stages. A replica could be built with around 6k I think.

much

 

[Michael172]

How much have you spent on the car Lusty ?

 

[Chrisjk]

Is it a dynamic bumper that has been modified + front lip, or a new bumper?

 

[.GAZ.]

white turini's would be sweet!!!

 

[Lewis_S]

9K !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cor blimey

 

[Justin]

Its not half as bad as everyone makes out.. Looks to be a pretty good standard to me

 

[Michael172]

 

[jim2772]

Nice car, as davesport172 said you must have put alot of time and money in and as i see it your not hurting anyone. Get more pics up!

 

[YorkshireDaz]

Not a fan sorry.. :dead:

More pics would be good

 

[tedgeuk]

+1

 

[AlexS]

I don't really like the style of it, its not something I would do personally however you can't get around the fact that its a proper show car that has been incredibly well finished using quality parts and labour. Even if you don't like it you have to respect the workmanship. From the photos I have seen there is not one imperfection in that body kit or paint job.

 

[2thumbs]

rather have the astra

I'd rather walk.

 

[drunknmunky]

Well all respect to how much money and time uve put in, its not my taste and like the above i would rather walk, than get laffed at!!

 

[Pep]

I've seen it in the flesh and it's pretty lary but at least it has been done 100%, and it is stupidly good quality.
As said, at least he looks after it and doesn't smoke around in it acting like a chav.

I think the biggest flaw on the car is the sunroof (obviously can't be helped) as it looks well out of place on the car in my opinion, but at least the rest ties in with the whole theme.

 

[J03]

lol its interesting to see how the forum responds to lustys car... its always sarcastic negative comments.. i quite like though

 

[VeinAST]

Fookin hell..!! Not to my taste tbfh... Looks like you'll be pulling 14 year olds for years to come with that thing XD









But........ at least it was done professionally :\
