Hey all.

Just last week i got a kit put on my Astra g i would like to share some info and pics.

Front - Dominator (http://www.talonbodystyling.com.au/products/holden/astra_ts_convertible(2dr)/astra_ts_convertible(2dr)107-80.htm) - Fog lights with switch.
Side - Gtz
Rear - Gtz. - Custom for twin zorst.

Very happy with outcome.

Well iv been dealing with talon body styling direct at sutherland and well i got talking to the sales manager of talon Michael Sorry i have forgotten Surname.
He took quite an interest in an astra with opel badges as he said he had never seen it. I explained i belonged to opelaus. and told him to take a look. When i went to pick my car up that same day we had a chat for quite a while. He also said he would like to Support opelaus members by giving a 5% discount on any product. Well i know 5% might not sound a lot to some but hey it helps. Also links to web address and so on. I personally dont know about that so i would have to cheak with wayne -Turblue. Also Michael added Talon was setting up a tv show on Sbs aussie verson of pimp my ride so stay tuned there.

Thanks Guys. :)
Pics might be dodgy as there off my phone.
When i get better ones i will post.

hmm....i gotta agree with WA04SXI, the front bumper is a bit dramatic for me.

i don't mean to b picky, but in da first pic, the color matching of ur bumper n the rest of the car doesn't match exactly.

otherwise, the rest looks good.

its quite an agressive bar, and not going to be to everyones tastes, but i think if i had an astra, I would definately consider this bar (obviously depending on the price) because i think it would definately grow on me...

now for practicality :D ... how about feeding the air from those inlets to the outside of the foglights towards the inside of the front brake rotors? Is that a possibility... because it would be pimpalicious if you could :D

I've had this kit on my car for over two years. When I bought it Cher was the only one on OpelAus I knew that also had it.

did they use any glue at all?

mine have just been scrwed on but they have a bit of a gap where the doors open.

most other skirts i have seen have been glues, for safety aswell i spose and to stop being undoing 4 screws and having your skirts.

so are they just screwed back and front or in the middle aswell?

because i have a few spare screws.

Just found out the side has 6 Screws, Also a long strip of heavy duty double sided glue tape. Hope this helps. Let us know how you get along, If not Slyopel might help.

10th July 2006, 11:57 AM
so 3 screws each end?

yeah i thought there would have to be some sort of glue holding the middle parts.

didnt seem right as they are pretty long!

thanks
