Agreed and why make it look older that it is? Arden is nicer imo.

Be far more economical to just but a Carabic GSI.

Fresh paint ardan blue is my favourite. But could always try a different colour from a different manufacturer?

If it wasn't originally built a GSi, it will never be a GSi 
Would keep if Arden anyway, nicer colour IMO
Edit - misread the post, you already have all the parts so it would just be paint, in that case it wouldn't be too expensive, will need a private plate though!

If you want it to be a convincing GSi rep, you'd need to change the interior, dash etc.
As for the colour choice, got to be my least favourite GSi colour, if I wanted to change mine it would be Smoke Grey
