Hello from WA :)

[NarnieeBish]

Yea that'd look really nice, iv done it with mine, lowering and black rims and I would recommend black rims on lighter colour cars but depends on what you like and can afford

Chyeah. Yours looks real nice!

[NarnieeBish]

Anyone got ideas for cheap easy mods? Just want it to stand out a bit more. I mean there arnt any other astras around Rockingham with tail lights and the front opel grille but i want it to look more personalised. I'm usually into 4wds and not really sure about what else I can do to my astra other than expensive stuff... Needa get it serviced and that dent fixed then I'll look at the mods

Lower it.

Front splitter.

Exhaust.

Interior mods?

Have a hunt around the members section of the forum and see what mods take your fancy.

[NarnieeBish]

Lol sorry but.. Whats a front splitter?

[ChrisMaz]

Front bumper lip.

Something along the lines of this.



Not the best example.

[NarnieeBish]

Ah yeah. I'm not sure if the front of mine is stock or not. will look later haha.

Welcome to OA, nice to have another Perthy on !

Do you have the service history for the car ? I might be wrong but think timing belt is usually every 60K on the Astra's..... has been a few years since I had mine.
Also get your bf to checkout the brakes, disks wear quickly on them.

There is always plenty of advice available on here.

[NarnieeBish]

Thanks

Yeah I wasnt told any of the history on the car which sucks. Kinda hard to understand the guy I got it from.. We will be doing a full service soon anyway!

Just put a new sound system in the other day. Sounds goood. Currently looking for a new gear knob... Mine is some metal crap that gets REALLY freckin hot.. Any one know a good place to get a new one from?
