Not being rude but just curious, what’s the go with the OPEL sticker and the Holden grill badge?


as for the eyelids i cant tell with the camera shot but did you colour match the silver on you eyelids with the colour of your car?

[Anonymous]

yea changing that soon enough :P this was sort of a test my opel grille comes in about a week :D as for the eyelids, nah its just the light reflecting, i dont think i need them cause they almost match my car anyways :P

[Dee]

[Anonymous]

ohh you sprayed it silver.........

[YuSuF]

Looks more silver than chrome..I think thats what you get with spray

[Anonymous]

yeah due to the pastic texture it doesnt shine like chrome but i didnt want it chrom i knew it would come up silver and its exactly what i was looking for

[Anonymous]

ohh you sprayed it silver.........

:lol:....good morning donna ;)

[YuSuF]

Ah ye either way it looks cool, cheap and effective mod.

[Dregger]

i like it good work!


gotta love those cheap mods!! such a good effect for peanuts....well alot of peanuts......but you get my drift....

[DoomTrooper]

personally i think it looks not too bad, might consider it for my opel grill to brighten it up a bit, the sticker as well is diff and i think it looks quite nice, very unique when u get the opel badges will look the goods

[Anonymous]

thanks man yea i am also thinking waether or not to spray the whole thing dunnno yet

[Bernard Siong]

looks heaps more brighter.
very different havent seen that done on an astra before
but my mate did it on his corolla, but then went abit far with the spray paint and started ricing his car up... damn i always stumble on to the subject of rice cars

[Mitch]

Nice i like it. :)

[mr_astra_retired]

Nice work mate , good job !! :)

[OPL-20T]

ye i like.
not too bad at all :)

[Degen-Astra]

I like it indeedy.

Leaving the black edging on it cuts up the color nicely and leaves a distinct line.

Good Stuff! 8)

[VampyrE]

nice work...

effective but cheap mod! :)

[YuSuF]

Think we might see more of these, you may have set a trend..

[Anonymous]

woot! hehehe go me! it was pretty easy :D feel free to use it guys!!!

[R3N]

I think you should leave it like that and not spray the whole grille. Its easier to spray the whole thing than mask off like you did, its unique. I had my old stock grille painted in silver and it looked good to me, looks different.

[Anonymous]

thanks R3N your right i will take the time with my new grille :)
