The fella doing the carbon bits is doing quite a few external bits from what i gather including the fog light surrounds.
Grill wise im thinking OPC Corsa Vxr grill but with a griffin badge. Failing the irmy one but not keen on the chrome bar.

Sorry I didn't get pics fella, my bro's away on holiday and didn't tell me where he left them And that is the exact reason he took his dv off... It cut out, wouldn't start, and on the one time it did start, it over fuelled like a mo'fo, spitting loads of it out of the exhaust and all over the drive

That DV is going to cause you a few headaches in the future.
The Janspeed springs ar e the best for a good drop but speak to Courtenay about the DAP springs.

Nae rush eck just when possible mate, fuck that sounds terrible was that instant or just after a period ?... Easy fix tho from what i read old pipe back on disconnect battery for 10 to reset the car.

Like i have said any hint of an issue and its binned.. i cant predict how it will go but hopefully well
Quite a few say the janspeeds also stiffin the car well with alot less movment in corners ... I cant find much reviews of the DAP springs ?

After all the piss with the royal mail my bits finaly started coming through my door and were soon fitted up to my joy
MPG Gauge pod with ProSport Premium gauges, not happy with them being blue they do have different colour options gonna take them out and set them to white i think, blue just hasnt growen on me plus the white goes with the rev and speed clocks better. i will be taking out the two middle heater vents sometime soon and fitting another two gauges.
Finally found where to buy the Opel type grill they even had the option when buying for them to paint it so all was good, while i was at it i took two of the badges off the rear end a lot better.
Attended a small vxronline meet for ayrshire today, ened up with some good info and contacts for when i need my internal work done before i remap the car worked in well tbh !
Still no issues regarding the DV im pleased to report, gonna start hammering into C5RSA again so after the next few mods the vxr will have to take a back seat untill early next year before the engine work gets started worth the wait tho.
