At the dealership on day of the test drive.  2013 VXR Carbon Flash Sat Nav Bluetooth and Dab Rear parking sensors Adaptive Forward Lighting   [Image: 20131231_144552_zpsm0vxgkh_edit_13886163...91w2dd.jpg]  [Image: 20131231_144607_zpsozwvnms_edit_13886160...wpmnu7.jpg]  After a good clean once the car was back from having a new bumper fitted after hitting a deer. Also the 1/2 leather was swapped for the full heated leather with blue trim removed from my GTC  [Image: 068929ed-940e-46ef-85c2-26622f680b54_zps8e9cf9b9.jpg]  [Image: 20140202_145907_zps76f3c53f.jpg] [Image: 20140202_145810_zps06561929.jpg]  Car was then lowered by 40mm [Image: 8Rearlowered_zpsd15445f2.jpg]  [Image: 23Frontlowered_zpsc2da7c17.jpg]  [Image: 20140202_145931_zps0e8b6eaa.jpg]  Fitted some led reverse lights and led numberplate lights [Image: 20140305_111656_zpsb579d9e9.jpg]  [Image: 20140203_190731_zps8a67e1eb.jpg]  Had some carbon front mudflaps fitted, chrome duct surround wrapped in carbon, chrome window trim in black, window tints and a front splitter fitted  [Image: 20140927_114405_zpsx1ov43qp.jpg]  [Image: 20140927_114351_zpsd9bhd09r.jpg] [Image: IMG_52829497009052_zpssdfmpqge.jpeg]  Fitted a 2nd reverse led and moved the fogs to the rear reflectors(better update coming) [Image: 20150315_152232_zpskbji2aqt.jpg]  Completed a blue interior led conversion [Image: 20140527_164645_zps651gzfv6.jpg]  Got the front splitter sprayed the same colour as the car also had some real carbon ducts fitted. I removed both the front and rear griffins and replaced them with a Holden badge  [Image: 20150417_164658_zpsyukqvskg.jpg]  [Image: 20150417_160444_zps2ihqwhna.jpg] [Image: 20150417_160402_zpsow927y8w.jpg] [Image: 20150417_160335_zpspjmsgvfd.jpg] [Image: 20150417_160121_zpse95bvbjf.jpg]  Got some more ideas coming when funds are better

Got the badges off ebay. Got to source the wheel caps. I've since found out that Holden are releasing the Astra in Australia in May this year so should be able to get OE badges through my local dealer

I can't tell if it's silver or a very very light gold colour.
