#1: Project J-Euro, new wheels Author: Sk3rry93, Location: NewryPosted: Sun Jun 03, 2012 4:15 am ---- So this is my pride and joy its called project penny because thats about all i can afford to spend Excuse the crappy blackberry pics
So looked like this when I bought her
First thing i done was dewipered and debadged the rear
Then spryed some interior bits and the front badge
Then i got offered some wind deflectors
A friend then got me a roll of yellow tint from work for free along with a Ripspeed airfilter brand new for a tenner dont have any pics of this as yet but will take some
Then got my new exhaust fitted as the original had a massive blowout that i didnt cause
And then just yesterday picked up an Astra Splitter that looks the nutts!!! direct fit no cutting or anything
Also have a stereo to be fitted just havnt gotten round to it
Plans at the moment are t fix the back bumper of the car as it got scraped and knocked loose in an incident with a wall and a passat no pics of the damage but i will take pics of he damage later on
Havnt got any idea what alloys i want so all ideas welcome was thinking maby Cyclones or Hornets Last edited by Sk3rry93 on Fri Sep 27, 2013 6:41 am; edited 3 times in total

Which Astra does the splitter come from? And where did you get the plug thing for when you de-wipered? Seems like a perfect fit.

Came off a 00 Model astra costme £4 from the local scrappy and the rubber gromit is from halfrauds cost £1.50 and its a 25mm gromit but id get a 26mm if i could find one
And the exhaust is just a back box that i bought of my mate for £20 after he bought a pugsport for his 106 its on ebay somewhere so i will ask if he can get me the details
