The badge on a GSI bumper is reccesed so the body shop will have to plastic weld over the hole it can be done but because of all the sanding the whole bumper will have to be smoothed then at extra cost.
It can be done yes, ya can pick up fiberglass ones on the cheap, bets price on a GM one will be from LMF i would have thought

jesus I wish I could say that I have had a gear box change, a split power steering pipe a major oil leek and now on Friday a cracked head or head gasket, I dont know what I can do now then its not as if I can drive without my centre caps cos they look sh!t without them and the rims dont look right without the centres

I bought my corsa with the 2ltr already in it, saved ALOT of money doin it that way, i've no idea who did the conversion though but touch wood its never let me down in the 2 yrs that i've owned it

Try your best not to usea spacer as the Minstrals are et45 offset and its on borderline of bad torque steer as it is

no bother mate where did u get your driveshafts from? I got mine from cossvaux

I havnt the foggiest mate, I'll get pics up tomorrow and let you compare the lenth of the ends of the driveshafts.

Oh and cheers for the comment :D

any ideas as to what I can do mate I think your motor looks awesome cant wait to get mine lookign like that again

Not at all as I also have the 2ltr in mine, unless the driveshafts you've used are too long at the ends

I have a 2.0l in should that make any difference ?

yes I suppose it is mate

My centre caps went on all of them without any probs what so ever :boggle:

Is it the driveshaft spindle that sticks out to far???

If you can take a good pic in daylight of the problem and i'll do the same with mine and you can compare the 2

I'm off just now mate but I'll post the pic up tomorrow as your problem sounds very strange to me

:thumbs::thumbs:

I dont mate but I will get some soon, can i ask you a question when I put my wheels on I put the rears on first and stuck the centre caps on then the same witht he front but the centre caps will not go on the fronts because the spindal in the centre is too far out so I cant get the cenmtre caps on did u have the same problem I dont know what I can do apart fron use spacers

If your lowering the car then the 15" minstrals are perfect for handling and acceleration I should know i've got them on mine :D :D









Do you have any pics of your corsa with the minstrals on mate??

what do u think of that chaps mate thats how I am putting mine back to but with a steinmetz grill and gsi skirts what size rims do u reckon they are thats the only hangover UI am getting at the mo I have a set of 15" speedling minstrals but I dont know whether I need bigger

Take it you mean steinmetz. If so best place to try is rossiters` they import all there gear and there the cheapiest in the uk. Not sure if it will fit the GSI tho, you might have to cut the top part away. Thats what i had to do to fit mine on a corsa c.:)

think thats a kamei grill rather than the steiny grill chaps the steiny grill is maybe a bit more prominent has larger squares in it its black like the kamei btu slightly different

Here it is

I have smashed my front bumper slightly so in time I am wanting a gsi front end and steiny grill can this be fixed into place by a body shop or is it impossible, I know it wont go on standard but surely a body shop can do it yes or no ? also whetre is the cheapest place online to get one cos I doubt I will get one second hand they will be like gold dust thanks for reading or replying many thanks Paul...
