for a set (front and rear) post 97 corsa bumpers (ebay is too dear by the time you add the postage its nearlly £70-80 quid per bumper)


I have tried most of the breakers around my way and have only found 1 rear post 97 as most of the corsa\'s in the yards have had front end shunts. so no post 97 front bumpers

i can get pre 97 bumpers for £10 - £15 ea and theres loads around

I am the same i be-grudge paying over the top for stuff. i can get new gm ones from a contact of mine for £90 a piece. I am after a set of arches too but i can get them anywhere

I found a small breakers yard in meopham (in kent) it in the middle of nowhere all he brakes is astras, corsa\'s and the odd vectra and his cheap too last time i was up there he had 12 corsas all pre 97 :( and a corsa c 1.8 chopped into small bits the place is a goldmine he must have 9-10 redtop lumps in cars and even a rare lotus tuned redtop.

I picked up a pipercross air filter blue anodised one cost me 2 quid
