Got a new one going on as I speak, but the old one has me in a quandry.
It's a panique, but it's been totally modified to be a one off and it was that bumper that was on when I had my feature in Redline so I feel really attached to it
Dont know how I'd feel seeing it on another corsa.
Opinions please.

I guess it depends *quite* how attached you are to it? If you've got the space to keep it, do that. If you get a bit peeved with it taking up space eventually, sell it then perhaps?

I could mount it on brackets and hang it on the wall in my garage so it'll be out of the way. Then I could see it every day How sad is that

I'd say keep it. And then If you get bored with the new one you can swap them over again.

Thats an idea Andy. We do get fed up of seeing the same kit on our cars eventually. Might be a step down tho putting that one back on.
Ta beattie for the opinion. Dont know what the new bumpers called. Hasn't gone on general release yet. Should get the car back Thursday so I'll post a sneek peek.

Keep it Claire if u have the space. As said, u can always swap em back over fora bit and im sure the person that buys it wouldn't take as good a care of it.

Welcome to the OPEL club Craig. Aint seen another corsa with that type of related reg plate. Usually ...00 RSA
OK my minds made up. I'm gonna keep it and mount it on the garage wall as a reminder of the different stages Diva has been through.
I could offer to donate it yes, but I aint that generous, sorry

I once did a job for someone and they had 2 limited edition Harley D's that werent even registered. One in their hallway, with spotlights shining down on it and one in their conseratory. What an ornament!

Dya know, while out in the garage earlier, I wondered what it would look like if I wired up a couple of lights behind the bumper so it would look like the headlights/foglights were on.
I've enough on with the bloody car never mind modifying the fricking garage too
