Finished work early today, so spent a bit of time on the astra.
Painted the calipers, polished the wheels and car, tinted rear lights.
The coilovers were fitting on tuesday and i love the way it sits, also got myself an irmy grill and de badged the boot. Un decided weather or not to get the wheels powder coated gloss black 
Let me know what you all think

yea i'd definately do em white. you lose some of the detail with em being black. and i dunno why it jus seems to dull down the whole car, where as the white ones just add that lil extra touch.
