Just bit concerned with the front bumper as im unsure what grill to put there! + the grill may not be a perfect fit!

And once the rear is stripped out and cage is in place! harnesses will be bought soon as! Going to be one busy month!

What you think of an opel (pre97) grill on the gsi bumper of mine lee?

I may be able to bodge the grill up so its a good fit! plus might be hard to notice if the grill aint a 100%fit as its black on black!

Which means i wont be able to use the gsi bumper i have, cause the indent as been smoothed over! unless it can reversed without the need of spraying again?

Cheers james!

Yeah theres been a lot of change recently! and hopefully before i next see you- the rear will be stripped out and a cage will of been fitted!

and does seem to look lower! maybe due to the weight of the skirts!- was suprised how heavy they are!

looks mint mate. skirts suit it sooooo well.

have you decided about the front bumper yet? why not fit it without a front grill, iam sure sutton has done that with his. just an idea for you.

also just looking at those new pics and think a smooth petrol cap would suit it down to the ground.

They are the normal arches! and they fitted perfectly! and with the sideskirts came fittings (screws and some glue) but added some tigerseal just to make sure they were secure.

considered it, but thought the gap may be too large,unless i extended the bonnet.

Ordered a opel grill from vaux, 40quid! and may powdercoat the opel sign black like stavs did on his car! or what about a white opel badge?



the gap between the grill and bumper may not be that noticeable, due to it being black!
