First time watching and I'm impressed at the detail and helpful info you give in your vids. Other channels skip so much so it's refreshing coming away from this having learnt something 👍
Been seeing your vids in my reccomended, boy I've been missing out massively, your videos are amazingly informative please do not stop showing and telling the small details they are the most useful. You got a sub from me look forward to seeing your channel grow.
I have never seen an Astra G OPC in a such perfect condition, it's just like a brand new car, everything is new. Hats off! I have stock Zaffy A but still I find a lot of useful informations here.
Comimg along nicely aaron. All red i think it should be . Every gsi i have owned ive removed pillar vinyl straight away as it dont look right on the car! Still a good looking car the mk 4 gsi😎
been watching these videos for a while.. back at the beginning of lockdown my arden blue zaf was written off outside my house in a hit and run. i was pretty much ready to throw in the towel. until i watched a few more of your vids, Now I've sourced another (albeit in black) with a dead engine, Making a good one out of the two. If i can get the quality anywhere near yours i'll be happy haha.
Nice car, love the red on this astra, these were good old astras my dad had one he bought it in 2010 and sold it in 2017, so he had it for 7 years, great cars made, simple and better looking then the new ones.
Like how you explain everything you are doing and why. I think a red car always needs some black on it as well, so go with your idea for the bumper. 👍🏽😎
Great video, and fascinating to see the work you have put into this car. The detail, and quality is outstanding. Personally, I don't like these cars, I don't like the shape at all, and thought they were lame, slow, and bad build quality, but I can appreciate your hard work, skills, and sheer creativity.
Recently subbed so dont know if you may have heard this before but your voice is a dead ringer for footballer Ray Parlour!! cant stop seeing him as you speak now...lol
"Thins aint a bodywork guy, this is just what ive learned from my experience, dont think that im trying to tell the bodyshop guys how do to things" said the wisest man that ive seen on the internet :D
Cars looking great man. I wouldn't bother with the black vinyl on the bumper I think it would make it look cheap. But try it an see how it looks first.
Hiya Aaron, what type of kenwood radio have you got, I’m starting a new project and want a good radio and I heard kenwood is good, anyway thanks mate 👍🏻. Good video
That car is looking amazing Azz such a transformation from what was basically and empty shell. If the insert is vinyal i suppose it would be nice to see both but I think it will look better all in red.
I LOVE THE ASTRA!!!!! I have one, TS or G model here in Australia. The best one they made. Would love to upgrade my 1.8 LTR with a SRI Turbo like the 2.0 Ltr SRI Turbo model. Any advice would be great. Also where can I get one of those Splitters that stick out????
Quality vid as always! I also need to do the arches on mine cuz have also 20mm spacers laying around for the rear. But why do you recommmend to cut the arches, and not roll them? Btw you should add some genuine shark eyes and headlight washers :-) Fit a X20XER inlet cam... would also be a really nice upgrade (and oem). As with the stock cam you loose the power at about 5500rpm. With the XER cam it holds the power till the redline.
Nice restoration! One question about the diverter valve you use...it’s the stock one with the membrane or you got installed the forge dv? Nice sound of little fluttering I heard at the opening of the video
Hands down one off the best RUclips channels for the home mechanic, I’ve learnt so much from watching your videos THANK YOU ARRON 👍

Very nice, well performed and always in good taste !
No short cuts, no cheap parts, no improvisation.
So clued up on everything, best channel by far, always wanted a gsi

Looking awesome arron, cleanest mk4 Gsi I've seen, credit where its due
Cars looking very nice mate 👌
Congratulations on the car. The headlight with projector of the astra opc would be nice.
Great vid as always, i’d keep the bumper all red for that oem look.👌🏻
This series is fantastic, especially as I own an Astra G as well.
Comimg along nicely aaron. All red i think it should be . Every gsi i have owned ive removed pillar vinyl straight away as it dont look right on the car! Still a good looking car the mk 4 gsi😎
Coming on really well Aaron , lovely project !
Thx for the tips mate , done my tabs today and thay fit true , new skill! ...you just schooled an old fitter and Turner.
Ever thought about a modded Astra van SE build?
That looks mint fella top job
Car looks stunning, Nicest astra vauxhall ever made imo
Отличная работа мужик. Выглядит офигенно 👍
Yet again another awesome video man that GSI looks sick 😜👍🏻
Looking nice mate. Get that bumper painted and gloss black the middle!

What a beauty
Keep it all red Aaron and stock wheels.Great vid as usual
Aaron your videos are great to watch, always liked your channel. You seriously need to do a voiceover for the next Rise of the footsoldier film!
Astra is epic mate! Meticulous attention to detail. You should specialise in concourse restorations for sure.
Astra is looking mint Aaron. In my personal opinion i wouldn't do the window strips black. It looks good the way it is. Great video. 👍.
this astra is incredible, congratulations!!
Great video Aaron,car looking amazing, keep the bumper all red,and keep the snowflake wheels they look proper 👌, great work as usual 👍😀
Brilliant content, the nicest gsi I ever seen its beautiful, only snowflakes suit these cars.
Like how you explain everything you are doing and why. I think a red car always needs some black on it as well, so go with your idea for the bumper. 👍🏽😎
Great work as usual mate, I would do that centre console in gloss black
Beautiful work as always

Looks good! Maybe paint the foglight surrounds black too to keep them fresh?
Aaron looks good all red
Great progress, going to look the part when painted 😎
beautiful job very nice car
Recently subbed so dont know if you may have heard this before but your voice is a dead ringer for footballer Ray Parlour!! cant stop seeing him as you speak now...lol
Just come across your channel awesome.. Rare astra love them 💪not seen one in years. You got skills 😎👌
Looking good and I think keep it red mate
Aaron get a red custon dach and console i got one for my red flaming red zafira and it really sets it off
My zafira gsi went to garage yesterday suspected snapped camshaft.
6:32 How do you make tabs like that ? The ones on one of my bumpers are too short and misaligned. I can't quite figure out how to fix that.
Its cool man they where a bullet pruff Astra but how is it over speed bumps.
Looking stunning Aaron i like to black out bit on the GSI bumper i got it done on my coupe turbo 👌🏼🚘👌🏼🚘👌🏼🚘👌🏼
Carbon strips on the doors like original. Car is looking great👍
Tint the side indicators! Or find some dynamic LED tinted ones!
Good work bro!
Do you ever rebuild Astra Coupes?
Coming along sir...Looking good.😀
Still love this car love the red colour can't wait to see it on the road
"Thins aint a bodywork guy, this is just what ive learned from my experience, dont think that im trying to tell the bodyshop guys how do to things" said the wisest man that ive seen on the internet :D
I would keep the wheels full stop! Stunning standard alloys , they set the car off
Car is mint 👌 looking forward to your next video 😁
Oryt Aaron have you got any links to what nuts I need for the strut tops Got the big Gap lol much appreciated
Cars looking great man. I wouldn't bother with the black vinyl on the bumper I think it would make it look cheap. But try it an see how it looks first.
Great job arron.
Nearly as good looking as my rare 1999 red 3 door 2.0 sri hehe.
Hiya Aaron, what type of kenwood radio have you got, I’m starting a new project and want a good radio and I heard kenwood is good, anyway thanks mate 👍🏻. Good video

Great build mate. Been loving watching her progress.
What make are those wind deflectors and how are they fitted? I’ve only seen adhesive ones?
I LOVE THE ASTRA!!!!! I have one, TS or G model here in Australia. The best one they made. Would love to upgrade my 1.8 LTR with a SRI Turbo like the 2.0 Ltr SRI Turbo model. Any advice would be great. Also where can I get one of those Splitters that stick out????
nice one aaron!
Great job Arron as regards the plugs you mentioned your running a 6 for now but said will get a 7 do you mean in iridium or platinum??
Iridium 7s
Quality vid as always!
I also need to do the arches on mine cuz have also 20mm spacers laying around for the rear. But why do you recommmend to cut the arches, and not roll them?

18:29 DUCKS 🦆🦆
what have you done to make the bumper tabs and attach them buddy
Yes put window pillar trim wrap, will look much nicer
Top job my lad 😏love the work 😉
I would love to buy this
Would you not consider the coilovers from the silver gsi?
Nice restoration! One question about the diverter valve you use...it’s the stock one with the membrane or you got installed the forge dv? Nice sound of little fluttering I heard at the opening of the video
plase show how you trim the fenders.
Tidy! 😎👍 Be interested to see how you fit the Heko clips?? I never have & recently lost a rear one! 😮
I there What company did you buy the wheel bearing from thanks I can only find cheap one
Not into Vauxhall but this one looks sweet
Where did Yiu get the spacers from bud?
what would you recommend about replacing the head liner?
Leave it red mate at the front looks good👍🏻
That looks great👍
Any update on the evo???
🥰....... Speechless mate👏
Get some black wrap on it think it would make it look way more agressive 👌
I think you should put on the black strips between the doors but not the black vinyl on the front bumper. Keep up the good work as always 👌🏻
Do you run a bov?
I need to get mine looking as good as this one
Where do you buy your parts ?
Love the plastic welding great video as always
How do u glue tabs on bumpers I need 1 glue back on in the same place yours are
Personally I'd black out the B pillar with gloss black vinyl. Gives it a cleaner line.
@AaronUnknown Hi mate, I have a spare 2005 Cupra R front splitter if you want it ?? has some damage underneath.. FOC!
Very nice Astra🥰🥰
Every time I watch this channel i find myself looking for a clean mk4 gsi
