hi all thought id add a few pics of my sport. Heres a pic of her wen i bought her.



So i then thought about doing it a liitle different and but base model black plastic bumpers on it etc.

So after fitting my coilovers on her i took the bumpers off and found the bumper bar was bent





Heres a few pic outside with the new wheels (whitch my mate now got to paint black)




i also bought a rear strut brace and new lights (had'nt turned up by the time off pic)



Heres a pic of the new front bumper on the car



I bought a set of gsi rep skirts off here which with a bit of luck are same texture as bumpers and arches




So wen the back bumper arrived i cleaned all the plastics up and.......


My new lights arrived, they were full clear 1s but i tinted them red to leave just reverse and indicator clear and a new s/s exhaust system



I bought a laguna splitter and a bonnet bra as there was a little rust on mine and this covered it up a treat





Last touch for the front end was a grill



Now that she out took a few more pics also single wiper kit on and standard sport wheels and astra mk4 side indicators






Will keep updating as i go on

Dont like bonnet bras but that seems to go well with the black arches and skirts. Cars looking good.
