As above, im after a tailgate(with wrap round spoiler) Post 97 bumpers, pre 97 rubstrips, rear plate recess(something like pug 306 etc), interior parts to colour code, phase 1 saxo spoiler, drivers wing (for vent) etc etc
the list goes on, wanting parts too modd so they can be done whilst car is still on road, and so i can put it bk 2 std wen i sell in a few years. Any 1 know any good places?
I wont be able to get these parts 4 about a month or so (wen i have paid off the suspension, paid my road tax, get the ice etc)

its just the scrappys about me are crap, no corsa parts (just old shit like fiestas etc) So i would travel if i could get the parts i need fairly cheap .

Any pics of ure post 97 front (the non gm one)??

cheers

wing - i got a weld in vent but bodyshop says wings too curved......well my vent isnt very bendible oh yeh i bot brand new one for £25 at local scrappies (they do new parts too) got brand new post front bumper for £60 too (non vauxhall)

what interior bits u after?
few corsas at my local scrappy

why cant u jus get a spoiler insted of boot too?

reg recess - you'l have to buy whole bumper to get one (unless u get those ones that r for golfs that come in kits iv seen)

bumpstrips - no point gettin at scrappy as they'd be wonky etc from when pullin them off think theyre like £25+ per side

yeah, boot was so i can smooth it, then wen i sell put std tailgate back on.

I was gonna ge whole rear bumper (hopefully get one with damaged mounts /or cracks in end etc, so its a bit cheaper)
shurely if i get a car with rear damage etc i could get the strips off ok with a paint scraper etc (£25 - jesus!!) I just want sumfing to protect my doors a bit, post 97 r too fat.
I was thinking of welding in a vent from a vw van, shurely that will bend, its only thin steel.

As for interior bits im after door handle/tweeter covers, mirror covers, dash surround (bit round dial podd) centre pannel (behind heater controls) and vent surrounds, but that will b after the bodywork.

i was thinking bout the sprinter 1, but didnt think it would look right as its angled (would suit a nova or sumfin squarer IMO)

yeah the <97 ones arent too big, look ok and protect the doors

How far you want to travel? There is aplce near Huntly with 4 or 5 corsas in. All SPI engines, no SRI models or anything like that. most had been in front-end smashes.
