Hey guys, been looking on AON for a LOOONNG time but never posted.


Just recently brought myself a 5door 1.6 Astra H SXI in sapphire black. No need for anything bigger for me...

So far ive done some simple Mods:

- Tinted back windows,
- Own Headunit + Wired up my own harness for full steering controls,
- Insignia washer Jets,
- LED interior Lights, sidelights
- Side indicator Surrounds,
- Vinyl wrapped interior trim APART FROM center console and steering wheel controls
- Debadged bumper
- Dewipered
- NEW CIM MODULE

Im thinking about doing:

- Headlight Brows,
- Paint calipers FIRE RED
- Anthracite coat wheels... (not sure about this) or white wheels
- Chrome front trim Color coded to Body

Id like to keep the standard look as much as possible,

What would you guys do with my car if you could get your mod hands on it? Suggestions welcome

Nice progress this far.

I'd not go for white wheels, they'll be a pain in the **** to keep clean.

Good point,
black is hard enough to keep clean on its own anyway haha,

Im looking to get a flip key for the car too. It originally had one, but the previous owner lost it and was too cheap to get another...
Any ideas how much? Are there any mods to move the Key transponder into one?

Anthracite would look smart. Then match your boot trim and V to set it all off.

Not got a clue about the key unfortunately, but I'm sure someone on here can help.

Where abouts in the West Midlands are you Matt?

I live in Staffordshire Moorlands area, but I work in Crewe, Cheshire.

I'm undecided about stealth look, or chrome under-window trim and chrome roof protector, something like that

Aha, make sure you check out the West Midlands region, we've a small but modest group.

How about a matt silver for the oe+ look?

I've been looking at them online actually...

Need to spray my front O/S cause it looks like previous owners tried T-Cutting out a scratch (badly) then il look into getting one properly




Heres a question, Bumper strips on door and side... Keep them or remove them?
Im assuming they are just glued on with same stuff as badges, usually are
