Not got a clue m8, i've just got the dodgy old style front hehe, still its all going to change within the next 12 months! (hopefully something like this)

Would say some sort of glue or something, mastik is it?? Cut the mesh a bit bigger, and glue it behind the grill, then get some small self tappers or something & screw them in the bumper so they dont come through the front and ya cant see em!
Personally, I'd keep the V-grille, but get an opel badge & replace the griffin!! Heres an idea, dont know if its possible, but may cost a bit, try get a V-Grille which is kinda translucent, so in the day it looks chrome-effect, but at night it lights up with a neon, its hard to describe, you know how perspex bars & shapes light up with a neon light attached to the side?? something like that!

nah mines a 1.4 8v SPI lump, stocks only supposed to be 98 i think! Mind those extra 8 valves would be helpin you do that! Didnt see a red clio tho will keep a look out!
Just on the hunt for a donor car, found one in MK for £150, 2ltr16v cav, 72k miles, rear end smack so its a right-off.

cars coming off the road end of june to begin the long and daunting process of the transplant.
will be re-boring the engine to 2.1ltr, so should make it interesting! will also be getting the suspension serviced & tweaked, rear discs conversion, master cylinder from a calibra turbo or v6, depending on cost n all, get the chassis properly aligned and strengthened too, and maybe a little bodywork. Going to be doing the work myself (engine swap, upgrades, etc), but things like chassis jiggin n all gona leave to the pro's
wont have a car till september i reckon, maybe longer, but will be worth it!!!!

sweet motor m8!! al my pics r now on my site, easier than using my garage on here cos i got ftp access hehehe
http://www.pauliesworld.co.uk/crsagal.html
there aint really any recent pics except for side1.jpg. but when im done with the corsa, it aint gona even look like a frikin corsa hehee, inside or out, completely different!!! fook money, will do a bit at a time, i know what I want now, just a case of implementing it!
So now the car wont be ready for AT LEAST 12 months!! Still, should be worth it hehehe! Just need to find a garage big enough to do the work in and which is pretty secure and close to me!
it WILL happen, but the car will be finished with 0 miles on the engine hehe (decided to go all out & save up for a brand spankin new C20XE engine from vaux & F28 'box), should be sweeeet - will post a fotoshop up once i've got some ideas in ma heed

2 bolts either side, but its best with someone helping, as its a bit of a bitch to align proper on ur own!
Brand new C20XE is about £1500 last time I heard, F28 I dont know yet, but im going to be doing a further 3k of mods to theengine anyway, TB's, tuning, etc.. so will take ages!!!!
I'm working on a fotoshop, but its taking ages, fookin hard choppin a roof ya know!!!
