I ordered the irmsher front sports grille together with the rest of the body kit from Vauxhall, but the lad in the Vauxhall bodyshop said I should send the grill back and get me money back. Apparently the factory fitted grille is moulded to the rest of the bumber so it has to be sawn off and the new one stuck on and it dont look to good close up.

n e 1 else had the irmsher grille fitted and does it look ok?

Pics of the grill? I think you can only get Irmscher grills for the facelift Corsa C and I always thought they just unclipped and popped out?! Not had to be cut out! I know on the earlier Corsa Cs that you have to cut the grill out to change it but dont think you can get Irmscher grills for the earlier ones

Looked at your car pics in your garage and yours is the facelift one. Have a look at the bumper, I would of thought it clips out from behind! The ones Ive seen with the Irmscher grill look good

it requires meting the pins out or sawing them off as u call it =\ they're not the best fitting grill for the money, i've done many at work before and find the spaces are all to buggery
