If your willing to pay over the odds for a second hand bumper you can get a new Gen GM one for £193 + Vat from autovaux this dose not include the grill and fogs just the Skin i know what id rather do.

i'd prefer the oe stuff meself...aftermarket is generally done to death...so mr and mrs jones down the road probably have the same bumper....and skirts...and spoiler....etc
genuine GSi's are hard to find now and still a very tasty motor.... i emailed the co. above and it seems they arent able to supply the GSI stuff anymore..found a local supplier doin me a gd deal anyhows! so GSi it will be in the summer along wi some small custom touches ;-)

I agree with SRi_m00k, i see a GSi bumper maybe once in a blue moon, I drive past macDonalds and ove 60% of the cars in there are wearing combat bumpers, it looks like a corsa dealership forecourt! not to mention aftermarket is cheap crappy fibreglass that breaks and stone chips very easy.
