Corsa GSI side skirts
Hi guys,
Am I right in thinking that you can fit Corsa GSI side skirts to a corsa with standard plastic arches?
Or do the Corsa GSi's have different plastic arches? as the "L" piece goes up the back arches when there fitted.
If anyone could help me it would be awesome!
Regards.....Cal

Ah cheers mate,
Do you know if GSI rear arches are still available from Vauxhalls?
If not i'll go down the trimming route.
Many thanks....Cal

Re: Corsa GSI side skirts

If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway

Re: Corsa GSI side skirts
Right ok,
Would it be a case of lining the side skirts up on the car, then marking the arches, then cut?
Sorry if i'm going on..... but I want to get them right first time!
I'll call Vauxhall's and see what they say also

Also like steinmetz and you don't need to cut the arch trim
If it doesn't fit,
force it,

Re: Corsa GSI side skirts
Cheers for all the replies,
Sweet so steinmetz skirts you don't have to cut the arches, what would be the best way to attach them to the car?
I know the GSI skirts are all clipped on.
Many thanks....

Re: Corsa GSI side skirts
I think they've been sold,
I might go down the steinmetz route, they look awesome on the some of the corsa's i've seen! And look pretty standard to.
Anybody got any for sale that then could post to me?
Many thanks
