Lo :D
Luvly looking Lude in the BEST colour 8-)
I have been thinking of getting the US front fogs for a long time and had thought about orange too :D
Look really nice 8-)
Have you got them connected as a seperate switch in the cab :?:
Not a fan of the front headlight brows but thats just me :lol:
Someone on here was supposed to be making me a set of eyebrows in fibreglass but it's been soooo long I have forgotten who it was :roll:

Cheers for posting matey ;)

Thanks mate and yes they are on a separate switch, did it myself was quite proud to be fair :lol:

To be fair the brows are only there due to the poor condition on the top of the headlights looking to get some new ones, is it true the old astra have the same headlight fitment ?

Thanks Mate :D

Yep, the black headlight re-shape looks good.

Yep, I meant in all your options you modelled/sketched up, before fitting one to your car.

Looks really nice.
When I see 5th gens like this, I really want a 5th gen.

Maybe I need to go intergenerational ;)
