ill apologise in advance............
ive just bought a 95M gsi, gettin it on fri and theres a few things i wanna no bout the car
1. were can i get a irmscher grille, or is there anything similar that would look ok? its badged as an opel atm so i wanna get rid of em
2. its got lexus lights on but i dint like em, and wanna get clears or smoked ones, has any1 got any pics of either of these on a smoke grey gsi??
3. wot mods can i do for now engine wise that wont break the bank til i get the engine fitted? its got a sebring full exhaust and k&n induction kit, but ive got a 2.0 16v redtop to be fitted
4. stereo wise ive got infinity components and 6x9s, a 400w kenwood amp and 600w kenwood amp and VIBE box and want to make it sound mint, can i get components in the back anywhere????
5. will a strut brace be much benefit to me , as im told that they dont really handle too well, bear in mind i had a vectra so im used to thrashin a big car around corners
sorry to be a headache, im bound to think of more stuff throughout the day!! ::

1. somwhere like pvd or demon tweeks
2. no pics of smoked on grey however i have pictures of clear ones on my silver car in garage
3. wouldnt bother modding the engine, gsi's are sweet as it is
4. not sure what components you want in the bac, rephrase it plz
5. strut brace would be good for your redtop 16v when it goes in, as for swinging a vectra about, im guessin it was power steering, that is for jessies

1. only problem with fitting new grill is you will have to smooth over the old badge recess. I love stoneygingers grill and would go for one of them.
2.dont have any pics of a grey GSI, mine is caribic blue with clear rears if that helps??
3.I wouldnt bother spending anymore money on the engine if you're going to fit a redtop...maybe just change from k&n back to drilled air box and decent panel filter.
4. there really isnt much room in the back at all for speakers unless u cut the rear doorcard type thingys around, try putting decent 8" round speakers on your parcel shelf.
5. i fitted a sparco strut brace to mine and didnt notice ANY difference at all, i took it off when the NoS was fitted and have never bothered putting it back on!! Hope the above helps, im sure loads more people will give their opinions

get rid of the 6x9's you just need comps in the front and sub in the boot, 6x9s will make it sound worse.
