Bought it back in march and looked like, debadged most of it straight away

Shortly after i couldnt stand the v grill no more and a irmscher grill was bought

As i had a 1.2 sxi before i took some things off it, sold some and kept others so i fitted the sebring backbox then went off to powerflow for the center section doing

After that i bought some opel center caps as i think the badge looks better & also bought the boot 1 to match

After that i was fed up with its monster truck hight and bought some irmscher 30mm springs just for now untill i get coilovers

Then off to the bodyshop it went to get irmscher front splitter, irmscher side skirts, colour coded arches and tinted fogs

Then shortly after i wasnt happy with how the zaust sat and it didnt sound that good tbh, so off it went to exhaustsuk for a 2 1/4" catback with small center silencer and 6x4 oval back box. Then the next day pipercross panel filter was finished then went for a remap the week after

Not long after didnt think the front looked mean enuf so bought some irmscher eyebrows and took some new photos

This sat went all the way down to london to pick up this

Next up is fitting it, getting the prefacelift rear arches colour coded in order to fit the bumper then fit the jc boot spoiler

Will keep this thread updated when mods take place

Thought i would just show you these i got made up a while back only just got round to fitting the other one. Getting an oil cap and washer cap made too. They are made from aluminum and polished up to look like chrome as chrome 1s will rust.

What makes you say that? I'd love some instead of my SXi ones. Shame they're so expensive and prone to getting nicked though!

Car looks awesome though mate, rear bumper will be an improvement also
