body kit or not

[jonnyb]

i have a astra 1.4 and i duno if it would be a good thing to put a body kit on it

 

[obi_waynne]

There are some nice kits around but there are also some pretty dire ones. I'd do headlights, tail lights, debadge the rear, get a debadged grill and then decide if I wanted a bodykit.

Bear in mind it is only a 1.4 so do you want to spend loads of money it? It depends really on how long you are keeping it and what your long term plans are.

What model astra is it?

 

[jonnyb]

im planning on gettin a VXR engine very soon for the car and im planning on keeping the car for sum time

 

[jonnyb]

[turbonutter69]

im planning on gettin a VXR engine very soon for the car and im planning on keeping the car for sum time

That would require alot of work. Not just on fitting but getting it to run.....

 

[jonnyb]

[turbonutter69]

[Massive]

[herb]

im a fan of the mk3 and personally think that there isnt a kit out there that can improve on the look of the gsi !!! so would advise source a gsi kit there are load out there being broke

 

[Prince]

I would go for a kit, but probably a more subtle one on an Astra. How about you post up some pics of the body kits you like the look of?

 

[jonnyb]

thanks every1 i will put sum pics up and then u can tell me wot u all think

 

[jonnyb]

wot u think of this 1

 

[Prince]

That looks quite nice mate.

 

[Hayley1]

Woooooo love the mk3 astras, my mate has the gsi 2.0 16v redtop, fast as you like,
even beat an evo!!!

Defo get a bodykit, but a gsi one, something that'll blend in and wont weigh your car down too much.

 

[jonnyb]

here another 1 every1 let me no wot u think coz i love this love and i have just ordered one

 

[Prince]

That looks like a common one for Civics. Imho I prefer the other one, but it's not my car. Got any pics of your car atm mate?

 

[HDi fun]

Not for me.

 

[Hayley1]

I prefer the other one, but at the end of the day its down to you.
Don't modify your car to please others.

Ye i would get one but get a good one. Cheap ones chip easily, weigh your car down and just tend to look a bit silly imo
