Someone said to me today that the rear of my astra is very 'bare' looking

I think with standard GSi rear ends there's a bit too much going on for the eye to work out.

After the comment, i thought about a subtle GSi 16V badge on one side, and a discreet black 'Turbo' badge for the other, But where on the bootlid is the question?!



I know she looks a bit battered, but I'm getting onto priming it tomorrow if the weather holds out......Gonna chuck the marquee up and tarp the sides of it so i'm cosy and inhaling fumes.

 

Get the paint finshed then decide

 

Id stick the gsi 16v badge on the left to the right of the light cluster then the turbo one on the right hand side to the left of the light cluster

By the way are you going to get some of the smoked gsi rear lights?

 

Personally I don't like the smoothed look, so yes it will look bare IMO.............

 

they look better standard than all that chavvy "smoothed off" rubbish IMHO

 

dont like smoothed really.
I'd fit the GSi 16v and leave the turbo badge off

 

No turbo badge for me either. What ever you do put on I think wants to go as low as possible (can't really see where it's flat on the pic...)

A small badge either side will be better too.

What about the newer style stuff?

 

You mean the italic chrome type font?

 

INDEED EEEEEEE

 

Standard is better IMO. Not into this chavved up thing.....

 

Beast

 

Id leave it standard. If you really want the turbo badges on the car then id place them by the side repeaters.

 

Hmmmm, its not really far from standard as it is. Its had no plate welded there to meet the lines of the lights. Its just been debadged, wipered, number plate, and delocked/handled.

 

 

Is it just me or does anyone else think that that shape astra from the back looks like a maestro or austin maxi?

 

Its the light clusters that make you think that way. Very similar in shape

 

Leave it standard...
