If you use the search function, carshine has been covered on here before, they have alot of stuff for euro cars but the mark up is stupid!!! Better would be ebay, use contacts overseas or participate in group buys on here!!!!!

I've been looking around and decided the ever elusive rear hatch opel badge for the Astra G was worth the ridiculous amount of $70ish (including postage) simply because all the ones on ebay are 80mm not 65mm. Other than that though I'd source from o/s.

Unless you don't care about your money, don't use them. I saw one body kit for a BMW close to $10k! Rip.

Damn dude, shouldve jumped on here before you bought it, wouldve been so much cheaper!!! Lesson learned!!! (P.S. i got a grille for your car if youre interested, PM me)

$10k, are you serious?? I can get a genuine kit for 1/4 of that price, what a joke!!!!!!!!!

Example was an Opel Grill for a Corsa B:
Carshine $150
Ozeparts $40
Big big difference.
