Vauxhall Astra

A friend of mine has asked me to modify a car owned by a relative of his, I accepted being the extremely kind girl I am :D. It has to be;
  • Black
  • Have a yellow roof
  • Anything else, I can go crazy with

So, I have found a good base, and I am now brushing the paint to match the background.
Here's my progress so far :).

I prefer engine oil and overalls to nail polish and fashion any day♥
Anyone got any ideas for wheels? I really don't know what to choose...

Maybe use some top class car wheels and custom deep dish them

What do you mean by "top class"? And I might try and the deep dish idea, seems pretty cool.
Has to be realistic though..

I am lowering it after I have brushed the car, just so I can get the reflections right and everything forst.

I am not sure that the person I am doing this for would like Lamboghini or Porsche wheels. But hey, I'll give them a try. I don't think I will do something stanced. Really low, but maybe not stanced. I might change my mind though.

I am going to be postponing work on this. I will post again when I am continuing.

Since everything is pretty much back to normal, I am starting work on this again.
I still haven't decided on wheels, and I don't really want something that's going to look dumb. BBS's didn't look right, so they're out of the question. What would you suggest?

Still brushing this too, so there's still work to be done.
