New to Opel - 02 TS Astra CD Hatch here

[StrickenAza34]

Hi Guys,
Just signed up, been reading @faneca's build thread all day today, can't wait to try and slowly mod mine much like his. Hope I can pick members brains every so often. I'm in Western Sydney btw.



Mine is the CD, so luckily, I only have to do 3/4 of the work Aaron did.(coincidently my name too)

I think first up will be sound, and the SRi-T front bumper, as I bought this car with a cracked front bumper. If you have suggestions, by all means, throw them at me!

Thanks for popping by!

Thanks, means a lot from you, only 139k, owned by some old fella in the richer suburbs of Western Sydney, lol. I mean, it still has the Thermal battery cover, lol.

Nice pick up! Mine had the same cover when I got it but wouldn't stay closed so ripped it off haha

[StrickenAza34]

Haha, up here in NSW I'm sure it would overheat the battery, lol. All clips still work on it though.

Thinking I will try and source the SRi T Front Bar like yours, then get it sprayed, I have a regular panel beater who quoted me $350 fitted, and will touch up the small scratches and chips with a brush, to clean the car up further. Then a sound system is a must for me!

Any idea what bulbs the main interior light, back door lights, and boot light is, haven't taken them off yet, but want to get some SMD LED's off eBay.

ditch the original grill too and get yourself a debadged one. These are pretty cheap.

I was thinking of going the whole hog, and getting the SRi T Bumper, with Foggies?
