Fades paint unless you maintain it.

Hey guys. Here's my Ella.
Trace, hopefully this pic will answer your question perfectly! Ella's currently being resprayed, cos she's red, and red doesn't stand up to the Aussie sun to well, as far as fade resistance goes. Her roof was nearly pink (), and she had bubbles in the clear coat on my rear spoiler.
This pic was taken today, actually.
And I have these on order (dogs outta the bag now Icy ) 17x7" ET45. Will probably take a while to get to me though. They've gotta come from Momo in Italy (bloody Australia, too bloody far away from everything!).
Engine bay (derrrr, obviosly)
This one was taken a while ago (after being polished, mind you )

17x7", 4x100, ET45. ET45 is the highest they do, but only in some of their styles.

Thanks Icy.
Ahh yes, the old beep beep. Still miss her every so often. But on to bigger things with the Astra.
My Astra goes in to the spray shop in a week or two. I've had those mags off my Barina sitting in my garage for near on 6 months. Been waiting to put them on. That and the $1500 worth of other bits waiting to go on in the shed. Nearly ready....I put up some pics when it's done.

im out there soon i hope. Not much luck selling the house this end, but my parents just bought a new house north of sydney in an area called West Pennant Hills, and my mum just bought a maxed up ride, a hyundai lantra with tints, 17's, lowered, 4" exhaust and bits on the engine. Its about 160bhp apparently Well they saw a nice barina onshow for me, a 1.8 SRi with all the options in dark blue. I might get one of them, a Renault CLio 182, or an old skool holden barina GSi.

Yeah mate, never had the front Splitter on it since I bought it. Never missed it much. Had enough problems with kerbs as it was.
