And photoshop the mouth on the front bar black the part the number plate attaches to, I want to c how that looks ;)
I recon the red should come down to the bottom of the bonnet.

Awesome thanks heaps,
Would you able lower it a couple of inches too? That would b awesome :) n do you reckon the bonnet stripes should follow the bonnet lines? If u no what i mean

cant really make it follow the bodylines as then you stripes will be very thin at top of your bonnet (which you could then carry on the thickness to the roof i guess...

when comes to selling the car its harder and so u try to remove them and ur paint is a different colour underneath it.. also they crack and change colour in sunlight after a while

Yeah but its worse for black cars. White isn't as bad for fading

Mine have been on for coming up 2 years and look as new as when I got them, I would be careful with red coz its the first colour to fade.
If anything happened to mine I would just redo them lol.
I think stripes that complement the car wouldnt change the way the car sells.

what if i changed the red to like an Arden blue colour to match my center console and interior lights? then i could paint my calipers blue and itl all be blue lol

Mini ss would bastardise it, it's nowhere near a commodore because it wasn't built in AU

please dont put mini ss on it

faneca
17th June 2011, 07:23 PM
Nah im not going to anymore haha il probly end up getting sothething like mini opc or sumtn along those lines

adam_92
17th June 2011, 07:39 PM
i personally wouldnt do anything like that aaron. do something personal to you. that way if you ever get rid of the car you can transfer the plates and keep them as long as you want. what happens if you sell the astra and the owner doesnt want the personal plates. what are you gonna do with plates that say mini opc or mini ss or something

faneca

hmmm thats a good point actually

faneca
20th June 2011, 10:47 PM
yea the first 1 is what im thinking of doing :) the second 1 was yea tad too much hahaha just need a grill, that will go well with the decals and angel eye headlights, a tinge of blue in the tint is a good idea but cant get it on the pics because iv only got paint but i do like the idea!!
