Fix the bend in the bumper and painted the side mirrors going to fetch the fogs light hopefully tomorrow and put it in Tuesday or Wednesday... I also want to go get the bumper spoiler and side this week any ideas of where I can get them? I wanted to get standard GSI side skirts but they look a bit to normal...

I want this bumper spoiler slash lip
Image But for the facelift bumper Going to phone ready auto tomorrow

And maybe a side skirt like this

Any help would be appreciated

Good luck finding that lip, it aint gonna be easy, I guarantee you that, also, that lip is for the pre-facelift, and you will need to make a plan to fit it to the facelift bumper.

not a big fan of either of the sideskirts you posted, but your car, your choice.

I know thats the own for the pre-facelift, was to lazy to look for a photo with the facelift lip... I'm sure ready auto should have the facelift lip... Just need to get some one that has a side skirt a like not to plain and not to "Fast and Furious"

Facelift lip??? What is that? Facelifts never had a lip, people fit the Astra G lip to them.

Aaaaah I see now that I did not know :chill: .... I thought they had one, cause I see lots of people driving around with them. Ok cool is the Astra G a straight fit or do you have to jimmy it on?

It will need to be trimmed in the middle of both pieces so that it fits the bumper, but again, you will need to make a plan to fit it. It does look good on the corsa though. Best bet is to go look for Astra G's that are being stripped to get the lip.
