Will a vectra gsi style front bumper,go straight on the corsa b with no problems? How much would this cost if i get it sprayed and fitted, a ruff quote would be great

 

[jim610]

a body kit 1 or 1 off a vectra?

You can get an aftermarket vectra gsi style bumper. It will bolt straight on.

the after market one,just bought it today then when i was driving home my clucth went. So looks like my new front bumper will not be fitted this week,will cost me about £100 to get clutch fixed plus it just cost me 35 quid to get the car towed home.

 

[jim610]

depending on where you got it from you mite have to cut it about abit to get it to fit.

 

[K3V]

yep will have to be trimmed m8,got a quote from a bodyshop over the phone £70 thats fitted and sprayed. Thats well cheap to me,a think there must be some hiding costs.

 

[jim610]

yeah that is a bit cheap mine was 90 an that was just spraying.

 

[K3V]

They have a few cars they worked on kicking about my area,there work looks good for the prices they charge. A guy a know got charged £200 from some place just for spraying a bumper then was fitted for a extra £40.

 

[jim610]

thats abit high!

 

[mmvcorsa129]

i could get it done perfect for about £100 but it would depend on how good the bumper was as some are really good casts and some are rubbish

Before you take it in to get your clutch done, check the adjuster on the gearbox where the clutch cable attaches. I paid £130 to get mine fixed and it turned out it was just that the cable had worked itself slack.

 

[K3V]

Am not to good with cars,how can i check this cable any help would be welcome.

 

[Lee]

Get someone to sit in your car and kep pressing the clutch, then see what moves under your bonnet. It's located to the right of the engine (looking in from the front). All it is is a little square clips on the end of the cable.

 

[K3V]

so when a find it will a tighting it or what?

 

[Lee]

Yeah, pull the cable forward by hand to free it from where it is held in, screw the square clip in about a centimetre or two and see if that makes a difference.

 

[K3V]

Cheers bud,will give that a try

 

[Lee]

Let me know how you get on with it.
