Hey all

Ive just joined opelaus and i love how everyone is so psyced bout their rides! ive recently bought myself a silver 06 astra CD coupe and have already put tint on the windows and badged as an opel:). Have bought myself some rims which have yet to be put on...so shiney... and am in the process of looking for a body kit. Does anyone know of any good places in Perth or anywhere in australia that would post here? So far ive only found spoiler shop over here and not a fan of what they have to offer and dont want to give holden any more of my precious money. lol

Id appreciate any info ya wanna share with the newbie
Cheers

Welcome to OpelAus and congrats on the car :D

Pop up some pics when you get a chance.

As for bodykits, Talon do them.
There is a couple of other places that some of the guys can point you in the direction of

Welcome!
What size wheels have you purchased?
As for bodykits, have a look around through some of the euro tuners (icc tuning, pam tuning, rieger). You can get any of them here... for a price :)

Hey guys

Ive bought myself a set of 18" XHP jet chromes...i LOVE them:D Ive been looking at the kits from the places youve mentioned and i like the front of the icc kit and love the talon x2-r skirts flares and rear bumper...but they wont match up...what do you think of the x2 skirts? Too much like theyve been just stuck on? heres the links:

http://www.talonbodystyling.com.au/bodykit/holden_astra_ah_coupe.htm

I know that they are just stuck on but i dont want them to look like it lol. Your opinions and comments would be very much appreciated.

Cheers

Have to agree with the X2 skirts...look very just tacked on. Considered the GTZ skirts?
As nice as the ICC front bar is, just cater that it's going to cost over $1k to get into the country :)

And ahhh...those wheels are like the SRi replicas...nice choice
