Hi all,
Yes, theres gonna be a heap of questions here...
Having a look through the forum has given me some ideas, but I wanted to ask more questions before making up my mind. So...
*Cat Back Exhausts: Are there any bolt on kits available for them at a decent price? We virtually don't get them here in Oz for the Barina and a customer exhaust is going to cost me about $600. If I can get a cheaper one imported i'd be pretty happy. I've only seen items costing around $900 so far..
*My tailights went last night. Car is only 9 months old, and the bulbs had melted the plastic in the lenses onto the bulb, blowing them. Looks like a warranty issue. If Holden won't cough up, would going for aftermarket lights be a better solution?
*I want to change the grill but again am having a hard time finding bolt on replacements. Wants the average price for a decent grill in the UK?
*Finally, RIM (Re-inforced Injection Moulded) body kits. I see most are GRP. Is it possible to get bodykits pre-painted in the cars standard colour so all I have to do is fit it on delivery? If so, how much?
Thanks guys!
Regards,

A. i think the kamei grill is the best 1 in the uk for the corsa, these normally go for around £100

sorry about poor picture quality, theres some more in my garage .

never seen bodykits pre painted to order but you might find someone to do it but it will depend on the colour of your car to whether it will be ok to do it that way is it metalic???

Thanks guys! I'm looking at the Steinmetz for sure.
As for kits, if I can at least get a decent quality one, then i'll get it painted up properly. I have family in the repair biz, so that helps.
