Nice motor. I like the twin exhaust exits.

Looks really nice

I was shocked how rubbish my headlight bulbs were, so I changed to the same as you, however, my DRL's are standard

Wheels look so much better painted black, how are you finding the custom exhaust ? not too boomy ?

Very nice mate, looking forward to the spoiler!

looking real good

Nice exhausts I say it sound sweet

Thanks guys ! Erm exhaust sounds nice and throaty not too loud ! Just when you floor it haha

The alloys look totally different in black, a big improvement on stock colour, looks really good against the red callipers. Definitely something for others to consider doing if they are thinking of actually changing their alloys. Dual pipes are great too, very luck to have a friend who could do that for you. Will be nice to see her with the spoiler, keep us up to date with new photos when it's done 

Certainly will do mate thanks

Not long had my rear lights tinted so thought I would add it to the progress thread and a couple of pictures of them.

Next on the list is probably the Sat Nav Unit which I'm looking forward too

Decided to upgrade the tips to 100mm as wanted them to stand out more. Getting more of a rumble also now sounds better

looks awesome, for me the car now needs a sporty rear diffuser, maybe this one

Yeah been looking at this before added to my list

That diffusor is only for one tailpipe, not dual as far as I can see. I can't really tell from the photo as it's quite dark at the bottom but it looks alright as it is.

Dual tailpipe apron...

I see I like that a lot !

the rieger is good but if you had that you would need a full body kit imo as its very agreessive, the rdx diffuser is abit less shouty, would need a steady hand to cut the second exhaust hole tho

agree just dremil the other hole out

but the car would well smart with this one

They both look good just don't fancy cutting something so expensive haha

I don't see the point in spending so much on the rdx spoiler which looks factory to then go and hand cut another hole on the opposite side, you may as well just keep what you already have and save the money. I like Rusty's but it is better suited to a quad exhaust imho.

Looking Smart Given me some inspiration to do something with my own Astra at last, been looking for a tailgate spoiler for a while now the VX-Line spoiler in my opinion looks to small (in fact can hardly notice its fitted) what spoiler have you got fitted as it looks great and a lot bigger than the Vx line one.

your DLR bulbs look bright are they the standard one, or specials or just the pic thats making em bright, I'm too old to find thing ont internet whenever i search for things they never show up as fitting my car


how well did the spoiler fit when you first got it did it need a lot of work down to it ?

Got the metal door pins from Ali express mate. And the drl bulbs are just them ones from eBay the £5 ones

Well haven't posted for a while been getting car sorted. After having trouble with limp mode etc and overboost issues. Vauxhall did a diagnostic on it and it was found to have a knackered turbo ! So new turbo was needed. Got that fitted and got some new pictures taken. All happy again
