get a haynes manual mate - should tell you how to get the bumpers on and off - I would imagine that the bumpers themselves have the same clips etc.

Arches fit the same as the old ones. Piece of piss. Its the sideskirts that are the hard part.

You need the fitting kit from Vauxhall that has clips and screws in it.

If you look on the sills of your car there are dimples every now and then. Thats where the skirts fix into. So I was told!

skirts are a pain in the arse,
front and rear bumper, peice of pish,
arches just be carfull as sometime the fitting can spin inside the actual arche itsefl when i fitted my skirts i couldnt find no dimples but if yo where any good at tech in school you should have no troubles just a case of measuring etc,

one problem i found with the front bumper is, it doesnt meet the bottom of the heasdlights very well, but i think thats common fault with all gsi kits

Both the front and the rear arches are shorter to allow the GSi skirts to fit
