Got my vinyl made up yesterday and got round to fitting them this morning what do u guys think.. i know they wont be everyones cup of tea but its something abit different..
(please note that the front of the car has been rased back to standard as i cant turn my front wheel when lowered 60mm when i get lower profile tyres it will go back down to 60mm as its not out on the road yet)
also cleaned the car aswell

And I just think they don't look good on your car tbh. These graphics are a big craze now, going to be over-killed in no time.

Corr; this craze seems to be spreading fast. looks fine though.
probs just me, and due to the numberplate recess, but they look wonky at the back.

dont think they look particulaly good on ANY car in my opinion, nor even the Astra burg
the best car Ive seen them on is Ben G`s Focus

I was speaking to corsa scotty and i think his idea would look good, getting the chequers like ben's custom on's for his st
Just on the bonnet and boot though and then get a black vinyl wrapped roof

since when where mine vauxhall graphics you of all people should be able to tell the difference between them
i have no roof chequers and these are totally opposite angles and a different colour. nothing like astra ones.
JBH, your's look ok but i think the bottom chequer on the boot looks a bit dodgy. might be better peeling that one off and leaving a small gap between the last cheque and the end of the tailgate.
