You can replace your rubber trim for the plastic one with exhaust cut outs in it and they just clip in so you done need to replace the bumper

So I'd need the whole lower part rather than just this?

Can anybody recommend a good strong number plate tape? Heard a loud bang in my house last night, thinking I was getting burgled, I went for a look down stairs with the air rifle just to discover this happened again!

Failed the MOT by quite a bit. Emissions were crazy high! Can't afford much at the moment with Christmas and another baby on the way so I'm leaving it for a bit. Did advertise it to see what I could get, got offered one of these but Iv decided I'm keeping my Vectra off the road for a bit.

It's not that bad mate the pipes are the big job
But the emissions could be the big one
But do you want to put the money into it

Think it will be just a sensor at fault

Didn't you fit an aftermarket exhaust?

No it's a std system
For it to be as high as it is it's the cat or a sensor causing it to over fuel as his getting poor mpg
