Mad to think you came a few months ago to my garage and I'm now watching you full time TH-camr. Keep up the hard graft fella. Genuinely a nice guy in person to🤘
Honestly I used to be all about black wheels on cars and dont get me wrong some do just suit them, but a decent set of silver wheels make some cars look way better. I just put a set of 18" golf gti wheels on my fabia and it looks so good!
Tsw wheels were massive in the 1990’s… Tsw alpines were the five spokes that everyone had on mk3/4 escorts, and the Tsw venoms were the stylish ones. They stuck out and I’m sure they were banned.
Hey jesse, just wanna say they do look banging actually, met you in halfords the other day, thanks for stopping and talking to me, it means a lot, keep doing what youre doing and ill be spreading your videos around
Hopefully them red seats are still at looms they’d look nice in my dodge box . I thought you was gonna get a full xp kit but the side skirts are subtle and smart.. and the wheels are perfect
The backing plates are heated....Vauxhall owners obviously leave the heated mirrors on all year round, that's why the glass falls off and needs replacing....with the wrong size.....yours are heated, that's what the 2 wires are you plugged in
Great video definitely think you should get rest of the xp kit (front and rear lip) and i may be wrong but them alloys do look a lot like the vauxhall xp2 alloys
If the wheels came of a vectra then why were you worried they wouldn’t fit on the Astra 🤔 aslong as it’s a 5 stud and not a 4 then there definitely wouldn’t be a problem. If they came from an insignia however they won’t fit
Stud paterns will definitely be the same because both Vauxhall but the offset isnt the same for every Vauxhall which would cause problems with rubbing on the strut and steering not turning to full lock
Vauxhall use all manner of wheel stud PCDs. For example, on the Astra J alone there are 3 different 5 stud patterns depending on which engine is in each model
@@simonbyrne1182 I’m talking about before the Astra J and insignia Vauxhalls. After that the changed and now owned by Peugeot so is what ever PCD’s they use
Not a huge fan of the look of a mk 5 astra in std form same as the mk2 astra unless it's a gsi or vxr it's a huge miss but it looks mint on those rims!
So you’ve gone from a tastefully modified Honda with genuine performance mods to chucking halfords crap onto a scrap car? I’m sure there’s a market for this content, but anyone who’s into k swapped Hondas isn’t arsed about tarted up scrap Astras.
In fairness though it's about content and budget. I understand what you mean but at least the wheels look good! It shows what fun can be had on a budget too
I really enjoy the trips to the scrap yard rather than just ordering off the internet and it just turning up.
New series 👀
I like the steering wheel, but please debadge and paint the bottom. Would look a lot nore tastefull and not trying to be something else in my opinion

Legend man! Appreciate the love 🙌🏼
I've always liked these loving the videos finally started watching again 😂

Tsw venoms where everywhere in the 90s too. Every max power magazine had at least two cars in there. I miss the 90s car scene.
That’s the ones 😂 I was a fan boy too

Legend man! Pleasure as always 👊🏼

Glad the weather has been kind to you doing the sideskirts
Looks good with them on are you getting rest of vxr kit for it or even. Just front bumper
Clean them while there off the car lad, then you can clean the insides properly 👌 still loving your videos tho lad ❤
19S all the way on 235 35 19s looks yum looking at getting stance plus to lower it
Lit makes a massive difference to any car skirts. Looks mint mate.

Wheels look mint mate 👍🏻. Good old Albert looms.
Good old russ mixing the paint 🎨 👌 and mpex paints are brilliant quality I uses to work along side of them
Like the longer vids, wheels and skirts look 👀 brill
I've got a vxr front bumper for sale, primed up but it needs a bit of a rub down in places where the primer has reacted
Those are the TSW Mugellos by the look of them. The name should actually be stamped on the back of one of the spokes :)
Nice work - if you've got any paint left maybe do the lip to match?
Nice one looks good
All good simple fun...
just shows if you have the time and effort you can have a cheap runabout...
more please
N x
Loved the longer video mate 👍
Got a sinking feeling while you lowered the car 😂😂
Never seen mirror glass like how you bought it. I've been in the parts trade over 20 years. 😅
Agreed what a faff
Love them ! They suit the car ❤
Another fantastic video my G
Loving the astra videos keep em coming 👍
Crying out for a backbox for a burble & 3" rolled exhaust tip on the back GSI styleeeee 😜
Great job with the Astra
You should do a transit van next mate and chav it up
De-crome under the windows Jesse 👌🔥
you should paint the black plastic trim/lip on the front bumper aswell
Have to get the vxr front and rear bumpers now.
Is the overall circumference of the new wheels the same as your old wheels? If not your Speedo will be reading wrong
I much prefer the cheaper builds a lot more entertainment 😊
I'm like you.. I like going to the scrapyard too. It's full of hidden gems.
Just needs the rest of the xp kit now:)
Those wheels look like TSW Mugello's, I had a set on a Vauxhall Astra years ago (Late 90's)
TSW Hokenheim....sweet
Tsw hockenheim
De chrome the bit under the windows?🤔
Nice looking car aswell
They look better than the other ones
You should take a stab at pushing the dent out in the door, would be interesting to see a first time try at that as I’ve always been tempted myself
Needs lowering 40mm , and still wont catch as the vxr comes with 19s as standard and lower than a standard astra
vxr bumper next👀👀
Did you clearcoat the side skirts, only asking as didn't see or hear any mention of it.
Jesse. Put your seatbelt on when you’re filming😂
I literally posted that as you were driving to get paint. You came out and put the belt straight on. Thanks for listening 😂😂
Whenever you're done with this series, I'd be happy to buy this car from you, give me a shout if you'd ever want to sell it.
100% better 👍🏻👍🏻
They changed the mirror design on them. Someone ordered the earlier mirror size.
🔥🔥
If the wheels came of a vectra then why were you worried they wouldn’t fit on the Astra 🤔 aslong as it’s a 5 stud and not a 4 then there definitely wouldn’t be a problem. If they came from an insignia however they won’t fit

@@simonbyrne1182 wrong. The astra J and K is 5x105. The gtc is 5x115 same as the zafira tourer and insignia. First shape insignia was 5x120.
Think there TSW Valencia or maybe sebring
Front lip, colour code too?
love it
The car looks much better with those wheels and side skirts.
Please do a Res Delete and Sports Back Box Hornet Exhaust system
Cleaning them before fitting definitely easier😂
I think they are the TSW HOCKENHEIM ALLOY!!!
I May be wrong…… it not usually 😉
Hockenheim's were slightly different if you Google TSW Mugello's you will see the differences.
They are more like Hockenheim R. But as below they are neither. They are Mugello.
Guys next video is eyebrows for the headlights
Jessie put a astra vxr engine
Wheels look ace bargain.nicd see Georgia not see much of her.
Vxr front bumper next lol
I’d do the wheel 🛞 glass black I think it would look a little better, my opinion
Ill be amazed if when that tape comes off the paint dont come with it 😂 made that mistake a few times
Look like tsw tremblant ex alloys
Pod next bit of scrap
Not a huge fan of the look of a mk 5 astra in std form same as the mk2 astra unless it's a gsi or vxr it's a huge miss but it looks mint on those rims!
Sorry mk3 I love the mk 1 and 2
I would of fitted 19 inch snowflakes geezer
U not lacquering them😂
Hi how are you doing
👍👍😅
Over 50% arent subbed? But your stats say something different???
So you’ve gone from a tastefully modified Honda with genuine performance mods to chucking halfords crap onto a scrap car? I’m sure there’s a market for this content, but anyone who’s into k swapped Hondas isn’t arsed about tarted up scrap Astras.

It needs a exhaust
Another Amazing Vlogs ever 👌
I'll give you 350 for it now

You might want to get that auxiliary belt changed at some point look abit battered tbh mate wouldn’t want you stranded
Super easy to change on astra h too. 10 minute job
Went from gold to silver in a car wash don't buy cheap shit fake paint alloys
Here second
