what can i do

[Orbital]

I need to make the rear of my car fit in with the rest this is what it looks like at the moment




got any ideas people
also phototshop pics would be good

I think it kinda does.

If you want, take out the little silver insert in the bumper, smooth and spray. Same goes for the front bits on the GTE bumper. There's one round here with the bump strips taken out and the area hacked out and smoothed and it looks well nice.

IMO that rear bumper spoils the rest of the car mate, its too long for the car really.

Get a belmont bumper again and have a diffuser or summat added.

[selblock]

hi mate, if your handy with fibergalss you could get another belmont rear bumper and 'add' it to the existing bumper to make it lower and chunkyer

maybe, maybe not

Tis the same issue on Cav Hatches as it is on Astra Saloons, all the best stuff is made for the Cav Saloon and Astra Hatch, skirts and front bumpers go on OK but the rear bumper is always an issue. For mine I'm just going to use a standard rear bumper and add a splitter to try and go as low as and match the style of the front bumper and side skirts. I would recommend you do this too.

thr reason why i went for the bumper i got is could not find anything for the back of my car all stuff is made for astras.
I might go for simon's idea of smoth front and rear bump strips i'll post pics for photoshoper's. also go for selblocks idea of fibreglassing my old sri bumper bits to the back.

cheers people.

i can do the photoshop work for u but the pics will need to be high res

[Orbital]

this is the best i got


would it be possible to take the bump strips off

cheers Lee.

A quick mock up for ya

I think it looks good

Fog holes filled

[personal opinion] I think the rear bumper is shapely (curvy) whereas the front and skirts are squarer, therefore you need to decide which "way" you want to go with the car and get both ends matching [/personal opinion]

[Orbital]

cheers for the mock ups mav they look good in the pics but not sure about how they will look in real life. but supose it does look diffrent and that's what i'm after. as for the rear i will make it more flat and less curvey then that should make it look much better.

what about bonnet vents and diffrent spoiler anybody fot any ideas?

[*AJ*]

orbital,
ring fibre sports they make a rear bumper thats the same as your skirts, have the same vents in, will fit perfectly.

[Orbital]

as far as i know fibre sport make an apron for the sri bumper and since i've got a nexia bumper it would not fit. if i was to go back to sri one then would have to put a number plate recess in it and sort out the top as it leaves they gray bit of the bumper. so i'll stick with the nexia but might get the apron and mod it to fit what i got so it fits in much better with the skirts cheers AJ would have just modded a standard apron
