think this one you gave me is a rep as the bottom splitter is part of the bumper where as vauxhall ones have a rubber add on
It was once upon a time in the packaging with a vauxhall part number on it.lol very weird that it sits lower than your other bumper with splitter on.lol

Quick update, bit more progress on the rear bumper, bonded, fibreglassed, filled, primed and a dusting of paint to try hold back the moisture. Will get this finished and into paint with the arch's and sideskirts sometime soon

I thought that's where you was going!
I'd personally make it flow into the bottom bumper extensions so it doesn't go in at the middle if you know what I mean? Like one continuos extension.
This is going to look ace

Hi Gav, yeah get what you mean and thats what i thought about doing but decided against it, the natural shape of the irmy bumper flows round and kinks in, i've tried to go with the same shape as that but so its extended out with the arch? if that makes sense?
Cal um no real set dedline all comes down to when i've got time to work on it but i want to get it all together before the show season really kicks off
also still need to rebuild the BBS's but i wont be doing that till after the EM meet next sunday, need to choose what tyres to run aswell .. any suggestions for 9j wheels?

Looks good Danny! Pov spec bumper looks kinda cool! Will look sweet once youve done the bumpers/wheels. Now you have a new daily driver im sure it will give you more time to get the Corsa finished!

Rear wheels off, tyres removed and time for a freshen up
the old lips, as you can see the winter has ruined them
bolts removed and lips removed
thought i'd give them a clean up, paint isnt too bad i dont think.
the new lips
hopefully get them built back up in a couple of hours
