difference's

Post by Corsa84 »

whats the main difference's between normal bumpers and wheel arches agaist gsi bumpers and wheel archs?

i mean i can see the obvious diff with the front bumper but to me the wheel arch trims and rear bumper just look the same as standard wheelarch trims and rear bumpers.

dont think theres much difference, i think there just color coded.
OFFICAL DVLA DATA:
1414 - corsa gsi's on the road in 2008.
735 - corsa gsi's currently on the road and 436 SORN
Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts :rant:

Thanks to everyone for an awsome weekend at pvs!

i was not sure about the rear wheel arch's.

i thought they may be diff due to the side skirts,maybe abit shorter near the sills so the sideskirts sit flush.or do they just sit over the top of the lower end of the wheel arch trims?

the rear arches on a gsi are different to normal ones, there slightly shorter so the L pieces will fit and the rear bumper is the same as a pre 97 bumper just fully colour coded, you odviosly know the difference between a gsi front bumper and a normal one :lol:

i thought the rear arch's would be diff,thanks!

i guess gsi sideskirts would not fit properly with ''normal'' rear arch's then?
