Firstly Welcome, yer another person who has seen the light, and it's griffin shaped.

i'd put the first wheels back on it, change the grill as i don't think silver suits it that much.

But if everyone had the same opinions what a boring world it would be. keep it up and don't forget to keep us updated.

HI MATE CHEERS THE GRILL IS WHITE I TRIED IT BLACK BUT IT LOOKS POOH LOL I THINK IF THE CAR IS BLACK THEN YEAH A BLACK GRILL BUT WHITE LOOKS MUCH BETTER THAN BLACK TAKE MY WORD FOR IT

THW WHEELS THAT ARE ON IT NOW ARE GETTING A REFURB AND ARE GOING WHITE
Posted By: MattLFC Re: djdodge: vectra 1.8 gls 1998 - 2nd Mar 2008 8:15pm
I prefer the wheels that are on it now tbh over the original's; they give it a better presence on the road and black with such a clean white dunt really go.

Welcome matey.

Have you priced up the GSI wheels?

I reserve judgment on the wolfrace UR5 in white until i see them as i can't picture them in white.
