I love the wheels!
wat about the car???lol
ive bought the fusion sub and amp package 2 day is it ne good!!!!
Posted By: Anonymous Re: Dj_Russell: Vauxhall Astra Mk3 Saloon - 1st Jan 2005 2:26pm
With the car being white, do you find it gets dirty very easily? I know you obviously dont drive it around but I thought maybe someone else has taken it for a drive perhaps?

I was also wondering where abouts are you thinking of putting the plate on the front bumper? i.e Bottom of the bumper, uaual place etc.

It would look sweet if you got it de locked and de badged on the boot.

What are your plans for the next year?

Overall, a very good looking car indeed. Keep up the good work.
cheers!!!!! happy
i wish i could keep the front numberplate off 4 the speed cameras but its goin on soon!!!!
the car gets filthy sittin there lol!!!black streeks and bird poo!!!!lol <img border="0" alt="[Roll around the floor laffin]" title="" src="graemlins/cwemotions065.gif" />

My personal opinion ... i actually liked the spoiler, if it was my car id keep it on, gave it a nice look.

Are there any specific reasons you took it off or was it just due to personal decision ?
bored opf bein called a chav and i cant see behind!!!!

I like it without the spoiler. My personal opinion, i dont like them spoilers too much? Are you thinking of having another fitted or just going to have your boot smoothed and de baged?
cheers jay. evo im gonna have smoothed anmd debadged and maybe a delocked boot and have an evo spoiler at a later date!!!!!!

Posted By: jimbo4x4 Re: Dj_Russell: Vauxhall Astra Mk3 Saloon - 23rd Apr 2005 10:27pm
'tis looking good Jay, what made you take off the bad boy splitter? If you're gonna leave it off then change your mirrors too coz I think they suited the old look better than this one.

I still like it. Alot happy
rhis is wat it looks like now i put spoiler back on!!!!!!!

[Linked Image]

yeah but how do u unlock the car?!
with the fob 4 remote central lockin how much 4 them then stATIONMIEK??????????
Posted By: jimbo4x4 Re: Dj_Russell: Vauxhall Astra Mk3 Saloon - 25th Apr 2005 12:25am
Can find them handles on the facelift mk3 Astras too. The front ones have the locks in so you could get 2 sets of rears for the de-locked look.

The mirrors suit alot better now the spoiler's on too.
im goin 4 a spin in a min 2 upset the neighbourhood lmao!!!!!!crank up some trance tunes!!!!!!!
Posted By: scoop Re: Dj_Russell: Vauxhall Astra Mk3 Saloon - 25th Apr 2005 6:32pm
A spin with no license??????
no a spin with a provisional and my mom!!!!!lol been out all day in it!!!!!!speed bumps are a pain!!!!!!
Posted By: DavidB Re: Dj_Russell: Vauxhall Astra Mk3 Saloon - 25th Apr 2005 10:29pm
I'll see how much they're selling them for. If you've got a remote fob, you won't need the lock, but if you haven't you will obviously.
Thing with the lock, you need Corsa backplates from an r-reg onwards!! Confusing. You can just change the front and the backplates with the barrel fit underneath, so no modification is neccessary. wink
It'll make a massive difference I tell you.
mines a KEY FOB M8!!!!!
