Hiya,
I just joined, I drive a Vauxhall astra SXI , tinted windows, sports grill, alloys, got a lot more planned for it though! Going to try colour coding it, found some a good article on this site.
So just wanted to say hi really,

Love Hayley

hiya pgarner n prince

I'm going to colour code all the side skirts and door handles first, then get some bigger alloys on it preferably 18", and then relook at my funds and see what else i can do with the money i have left lol.

Any suggestions anyone with Modifications and stuff??

Depends on what you want from it really? You could make it look amazing? Tune the engine? Or both?

What year is it?

Just want to make it look nice, its a T reg '99. Its a 1.6 engine, which sounds quite sporty anyway, so more into the looks.

How about an exhaust...twin would probably look good. Then you could fit a body kit. A subtle spoiler would look pretty sweet as well. Your 18s should look decent with all of that. Then (depending on whether you have a lot of speed bumps in your area) you should get the car lowered about 30mm. Once that's complete spend a good few grand having the car completely resprayed. All of that will probably cost around £6000-7000.

Are you looking to modify the interior?

Hi Hayley and welcome to TorqueCars. Its great to have you along. What colour is your car? I'm guessing PINK but I could be totally wrong!

I hope you get to 10 posts soon then you can upload some pictures. Have you thought of lambo doors (not everyones cup of tea) but I thinkt they look good on the Astra. Glad you like the site, let me know if there are any articles you'd like to see and I will do my best.

For inspiration see www.carstylingtips.com and click the Astra link bottom left - there are quite a few on there!
