Even if you buy them from Vauxhall they are cut down standard arches. They even have the orange peel texture on them too.

would you want dogey bits after paying money for them?
on an update. after looking at a mates rear ones (not fitted and from vaux) the front ones are the dodgey looking ones. i am happy with the backs as they match up but the fronts are still iffy.

They have a slight curve at the bottom of them and they slip in behind the skirt. I had a set of Genuine ones once but sold them on without realising how much they were worth
Vaux charge loads for them and they should come textured and primed.

You can't see it. You can sand down the swarf.
