    Can't beat original parts - were they expensive to buy?

    Thanks Edd, I want to sort most of the parts before starting with the restoration. That saves me time and frustration in the end.

    Tek, not at all, the side skirt rear part was only € 25,00. The rest was way under that. The parcel shelf was the 'most expensive part' at € 47,00. Had it shipped to our German office in Bonn last week where I picked it up as I had some meetings planned there.
    The front wing was only € 35,00 had to put some pressure on the seller to sell it to me though....

    Cheers for the comments guys!

    Cleaned the Irmschers last weekend. They need to be refurbed though. But the guy who's refurbing them didn't have time for that until beginning of January... Then the centre caps will have to be sprayed separately, as the alloys will be powder coated, so I'll have to sort out new i logo's to go on the centre caps when painted.

    All 4


    Close up


    Genuine Irmscher


    But hey, they were made by Speedline


    Will be fitting 185/55 R15 tyres on them.

    Well, just booked the EuroTunnel for the 25th. Me and Pastry are coming over to pick up my new GSi interior:




    Pastry will be picking up his fiber glass doors from 16xe_chris and poly windows from ASW...

    We're also bringing a new door, boot and sill for MattBrown.

    Should be a fun day!

    hi mate
    are you getting them from a guy on ebay in helmshore lancashire
    i got a unmarked gsi dash of him a couple of weeks ago
    and he offered me the front seats, rear seats, front cards (with speaker holes)
    and rear quarters for not a bad price.
    if i think back the front seats were very clean, rear seats had head rests in
    stu
