As allready been said, its really clean and tidy, almost tempted to say keep it like that. But it will look wicked with those 5 stud OZs. :D

theres a little bit of rust coming through on the drivers arch cause when they were "repaired" that arch wasnt treated, so the rust has come back.

[alex]

hum.. nice. I liked this. This wheels are very harmonic in Astra Mk2.

[sarah gte]

thanks. i love yours tho, saw it on mig!

[REMUS]

Very nice indeed I really like those alloys they seem to compliment the mk2 styleing almost perfectly. Good work!

[CraigGreen]

That is very clean. Nice job on the arches by the looks of things.

Great wheel choice too but I guess the OZs will be finer.

thanks.

the arch on the drivers side is getting replaced sometime in january, and both rear 1/4's are being resprayed the right colour!!

i was going to get the OZ rims, but a friend did say that now she's 5 studded, why get after market rims? small chance ppl will notice that it's 5 studded, and i love those turbo rims now (that i used to hate lol)

im starting my new job next month, and i'll have some extra cash to through about so next on my list is throttle bodies or carbs...don't know which yet!

Sarah, keep the turbo rims, they look absolutely gorgeous. Car looks super clean by the way.

[sarah gte]

thanks! i am keeping the turbo rims, but she isn't so clean at the mo. but i took her to station body shop in fareham today where she's having the arches done, and pretty much the whole thing resprayed! so i'll get some photos up on friday next week when i get her back!

[sarah gte]

got her back from Station on Tuesday :D i have this after noon off, so if the rain holds back, she'll be getting a good polish and i'll get pics up here for all you guys looking all shiney! and i'll put ones up when she was getting worked on!

[Heathercdi]

looks really nice and she does look sweet on the turbo rim :)

[Brett]
