[color=#000000:post_uid1]Without sides or a rear wing doesn't look any good.

[color=#000000:post_uid0]yeah really need a pic with an astina with 18"s and cyber skirts and a nice wing and really low :D hehehe mmuhahaha ...

:) sound like what i wanna do to my car...[/color:post_uid0]

[SehnKhan]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]It's a nice front bar, but agree would really need some chunky side skirts and rear work to get the whole package.[/color:post_uid0]

[CEPAT]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]Looks like it's based on the C-west design.

it would look beter without the grill and the vent on the side near the wheel.[/color:post_uid0]

[dfvadr]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]r u referring to the red astina bar i love that vent im putting them in mine as well they serve a purpose air goes in the front an comes out the side so there for less pressure on the mounts[/color:post_uid0]

[BigBoyLemonade]

[color=#006666:post_uid0]Its different and it looks a lot better than standard but it doesnt suit the lines of the astina enough.. thats just what I think but performance it would be nicer to have a lot more airflow through the front of my car...[/color:post_uid0]

[jeroentje.nl]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]It's a C-west copy.

What do you guys think of this one ?

[dfvadr]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]i dont like all those holes in the front im refferring to the side one d vent i think its called[/color:post_uid0]

[sik astina]

[color=#0000FF:post_uid0]My opinion. i dont think it suits the astina. its abit bulky. but i like that colour :)[/color:post_uid0]

[BigMal]

[color=#000000:post_uid1]I like the mouth which would be great with my intercooler.
I dont like the spot light holes, cut them out and would be
OK. I like the side vents but I dont like the angle on the
bottom lip which comes up as it goes back. If it was level
was the same as it goes round the side still sticking out as
much as the front I would like it(I know bad explain).
Does look better on a darker car.

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I dig it... I would like to see it in the flesh but it certainly has potential. Agree with Mal, spotty holes need to come out but this bar would look phat with an intercooler sitting in the mouth.

Love the colour of that car... its either black or blue with my respray.... I dont think we have a blue BA in the club do we?[/color:post_uid0]

A noble green example[/color:post_uid0]

[BigMal]

[color=#000000:post_uid1]Thats the best looking example so far.
The boys OS must have made a bulk purchase.
Just to let you know Jynx and I went to carmate
to look at one and they don't have any made
and wont be making any for 3 weeks. I would
still like to see one in real life and see how they
bolt up before making a final decision about them.

Mal[/color:post_uid1]

[JynX]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Looking at that pic makes me want one. It looks very smchik on that car.[/color:post_uid0]

[BigBoyLemonade]

[color=#006666:post_uid0]ah its not my piece of cake... its nice and one of the nicest after front bar replacements out there...[/color:post_uid0]

[JynX]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]still find it amusing that carmate didnt have one. The guy didnt seem that interested in showing it 2 us either....[/color:post_uid0]

[Toyboy]

[color=#000000:post_uid14]Yeah im not to keen on it either ???[/color:post_uid14]

that's stange.....I have the fornt-bars from carmate.
He told me he had 30 pieces produced. I got 10 so he has to got 20 pieces. Strange.

End of this month we got new pics of the noble green one.
With carmate rear spoiler.

They're probably making a mass production of em :lol:

[BigMal]

I agree and disagree with making in batches. 1. Yes being the first
time and considering you have an order of 10 already make a stack
and have a stock of them. 2. No its only one mould so you are only
making one per day so there is not really any economy of scale in
doing a run of them over doing it on demand.

I am suprised that if there were another 20 of them that somebody
else on the board here in OZ hadn't snapped one up.

Hey astina, i don't know who has this particular lip available [it's an OS car in the pic], but i'd sure like to know. I would imagine that there's one available.....
