Ahhh yeah! well i bought an opel grill, and suprisingly fits quite well! and can hardly see the gap between the grill and end of bumper so should be ok!
Clips will need adjusting though.

god i thought i was reading a thread on my own car then lol, looks good mate heres a spec on mine il post you some pics and youl laugh
black corsa sport
white speedlines
lowered 90mm back
60mm front
full gsi kit
stripped out
rear cage
cobra monaco seats
sparco harnesses
rear mudflaps
just fitted twin headlights
and with my bumper im smoothing the dip where the badge used to be the joining the two low bits on the bonnet so it makes the gap where a grill should be much skinnier. looks very much like your car, just wish my paintwork was as good, its having a respray when the dry weathers back just unsure on what colour?

Plans

- Fit Luke harnesses

- And fit front bumper when weather gets better.
-Janspeed Manifold
And a general tidy up of the car before show season starts.

Cheers guys!
Been on a small spending spree recently! needed some harnesses, and it had to be some luke harnesses obviously!
Also while on a trip to demon tweeks, i bought a hammock/net- not to sure whether to use it, but was one of those impulse buys! may come in handy.
Also the local vauxhall dealership finally recieved the opel grill that i wanted. and as soon as i recieved the badge- it had to be sprayed black! looks quite good i think. untill the bludey cat knocked it off the bench and chipped the badge. tsch. so badge will need a fresh coat of paint again.
and here it is on the bumper! (soon to go on)
(ignore how grill sits-just placed it ontop)
And any time today, my new rear springs will arrive.
