Yeah, but the GSI arches are just cut down normal arches, so you should be able to get the same effect with normal arches if you're handy with the saw.

Sam, have you tried that place just over the Laira bridge? They might have some for cheaper than that.

Yeah, thats the place I was thinking of. TBH, for the sake of £36, i'd just buy the ones from Vauxhall as its less hassle.

£76? I thought the front ones didn't need changing or cutting at all and you only needed the rear ones?

The front ones are cut too.

They are cut by Vauxhall ayway. When I bought some they were primed, but the mottling was still there and there was swarf on the arch where they had been cut. They woul use a jig to do it though, so they would be cut in the right place.
