'New' parts... where to buy??

[Torroni]

Does anyone know where I can buy 'new' nova body parts like bumpers, grill, bonnet etc? I've seen an eBay shop who have sold them in the past, including front arches, boot, doors.... but can't seem to find anything now!

Thanks :)

Sel Imperial

Hadrians Panels

They sell pattern parts tho, not gm.

[Torroni]

Are the pattern parts any good or of a lower quality than GM?

its a bit random tbh.... some people ahve had problems fitting pannels, others havent...

could be down to shell flex/bad crash repair in the past. could be the new pannels have a pish poor quality control, its kinda hard to say really.

but if your going to the trouble of fitting all new pannels etc then a bit of alignment shouldnt be a huge issue really

Vauxhall sold Gsi and Gte bumpers etc when i worked there about a year ago - as for non GM items i had a front wing on mine they dont fit 100% but they can with a bit of playing lol:thumb:

surely even gm wings need abit of "playing" to get them a perfect fit/panel gap etc ??

They do.

SEL & hadrian are pretty good as pattern parts.

Ive got some shocking rear arch panels in the shed, really soft steel (tin) too.

I did have a crap wing from SEL but I returned it, the wrap around corner (under the indicator mk2) was a seperate peice of metal & it didnt have a flush join.

SEL do cash on delivery too. Quite handy.

can still get bumpers from vauxhall but no panels, looks like people are going to have to make do with pattern parts from now on

the vboa show is probebly a good place to get oe parts, some people might have old stock or horders etc. what about the heratige centre iam sure they have good contacts for vx parts ?
