Righto, I've got a 5 door Corsa montana pre 97, non colorcoded bumpers. They are wll looked after an still black.
I'm owed a favour and have been offered a pair of front and back GM flaps for £7.50 inc p&p
my car hasn't ever had flaps, I'm just curious as to how easy it is to fit them on?
also, is there any difference in post 97 & pre 97 / 3 door & 5 door?
Thanx Dan

there is a difference between the rear bumpers as the shape is different. but unless its a gsi the front mudflaps are the same regardless of the age. this also goes for 3drs n 5doors

I don't see why the fronts won't fit.
Just offer them up, punch a hole through the arch and get the self tapping screws on the go.
Straight through 118

I went to vauxhall a month ago and got all 4 for about £35.00 and vauxhall grimsby/cleethorpes are supposed to be the worst lol

mine came with them as standard (5dr) thought about putting them back on recently because personally i think they look really good when ur car is lower and wider with alloys etc...but i guess its all personal opinion...just 2 screws per flap held mineon.
