Today I have added all the files needed to convert the forum into a mobile friendly site when viewed on a smartphone.

Hopefully this will help those that don't have taptalk or are using mobile devices to view the site.

Thought I'd do one..... It's not going to be quite on the same level as some of the other cars on here but to me, buying and hanging a little tree air freshener is an upgrade......


So I bought an Astra 1.6 SRI



First thing I wanted to do was change the alloys so I bought the diamond cut ones you see on GTC's, BiTurbos and Zafira Tourers.



They were quite badly curbed as you can see





So had to get them refurbed...... Which cost an arm and a leg







They'd done a really good job in the end so was worth the cost and look a lot better than the 17" ones I had on





Next thing was changing the centre dash trim. Mine had a slight scratch on it so I wanted to change it but ended up buying the wrong trim. Mine is metallic silver and I'd bought the dull silver one.



Then I found a darker coloured trim wish I liked and stuck with that.



Ended up with quite a few. Ha.



I'm still after the gloss black one though.....

Next was one of the most complicated of all car upgrades.……number plates. Had to think long and hard about doing this on my own, sleepless nights and everything.

Mine were a bit tatty and the front plate sticked out at the ends due to it being screwed in





So decided to stick the on..... Revolutionary I know.



They no longer stuck out at the ends



Then I bough the VXR pedals



Which look loads better



See I'm not lying



Next was smoked repeaters



And it now looks like this

Removing bumper and cannot find mounting bolt to get bumper off. Have gone through the how to but cannot find it. Everything else has been done just need to do this to remove.

The car before I picked it up.



Gave it a quick polish with autoglym super resin then extra gloss protection.

Finished polish.

I bought some led drl, number plate bulbs, fog lights and a hid kit.

Part way through the hid conversion
finished fitting lights.

Led number plates bulb in.

Will get a better pictures once it's night time so people can see the difference.

Next on my list Iv got a couple of small mods planned.

-Custom mats
-led interior lights.
-gtc door sills
-wind deflectors
-painted callipers(maybe still toying with the idea)

Hi,

I seem to remember when I had a Corsa D there was a menu you could open so you could put the headlights on when the car got unlocked? Or rear wiper turns on when in reverse?

Is this the case on the Astra gtc 2015 or have I completely made that up. (It was three years ago)


Thanks.

Would this wrap be ok to do a debadged front grille?

My self I've been busy with work but made sure I still had some time to carry out some pranks in work. All I will say is it involved rain x on their car windows

Well had a couple of spare so thought I'd give it a quick clean.

Hoovered it out and treated the seats


Gave the wheels a good wash with wheel cleaner and treated with Autoglym wheel sealant.


Washed it and then used autoglm aqua wax.


Then treated all the windows with wolf chemicals glass sealant.


Last but not least the sticker the wife got off ebay for me

So who is up for a meet at the Lake District later this year, I know October has been mentioned but open to suggestions. Also where abouts in the Lakes would be best to meet?

Leave your name if interested.
