All genuine GM parts. Good god, it's beautiful :)
Anyways I'm without a digicam for the better part of a weekend, but I thought I'd share with you all a taste of things to come for the Vectra...

Gonna wait till tomorrow to do the rear though.
Greg K - roughly $88AUD, going by the current rate. Arrived on the 7th day after postage from the UK too, I was most impressed.

I had a chat with slimcraige, he was more than happy to assist me on my euro'trip' :P
Delivery was £12.00GBP, I also had those badges inside the box too, but I highly doubt that would alter postage the postage cost.

Finished up this morning. I'll give it a wash down later when it gets cooler and put my opelaus.com sticker on, but for now, here's the completed re-badging - I'm still amazed at how nice it looks!

That looks sweet, I like the OPEL wording that they are all seperate and not all joined together like mine.

Thanks :)
I'm still trying to track down a panel filter replacement for my particular model, the ones that I had matched up on the K&N site have completely different specifications. (hence my edited post in the parts forum, that could probably be deleted now) I contacted K&N about it, and they reckon they've never made one for my car :cry: So I don't know about that, I didn't want to go POD...
Later down the track I'd like to tighten the suspension up a bit, possibly give it some bigger rims too, but first off I'd like to get the air filter and exhaust sorted out.

Your car is a 2.5L V6 though, isn't it?
Wouldn't the C22SEL have a different air intake?
[edit: I think I've only mentioned the 2.2L 4cyl in 2 threads ever, but thanks for the offer anyway :) ]
Greg K
15th November 2004, 08:12 AM
yeah i have a v6 but all the vectras take the same size air filter.
i will find out today the part number for you!
trust me it sounds awesome on the 2.2 coz i put it on my gf's vectra!
