I've got a 1.2 SX, and a wide mouth Gsi bumper I'm gonna fit. The only problem is that i want to keep the bumpers grey like the SR Nova's. Is there a Matt Grey Paint or something i can use to make the GSi item look like the Sr ones?

You know the way on performance models you have a plastis trim around the windows on the doors and rear windows, its the vynal that goes up the pillar on the door, to the front of the quarter panel and in the wee triangular part at the very cclosest part of the window to the boot lid. Did I just confuse matters further?

Dod Sham, you are right in what you say, the bit in between the doors and rear quarter windows is vinal. I wdont think you will get it anymore from Vaux, why not try a local sign writing business, thet should sell you something that will look similar

Thats not actually a bad idea, that way I could get them to fit it as well. Cheers!!

I like carbon fibre on the inside though. I'm going for a vary standard and basic look for mine. You should cheak out my pics, tips and suggestions are more than welcome.
