Very nice work. I had the bumper off my Astra today to fix the air con. Great little upgrades, the shiny black inserts in the headlights are the standard GSI look. Maybe a potential video could be doing a Z20LET engine upgrade or GSI interior upgrade. 😉 Keep up the good work bud.

Great video, very informative, as always. if it was me doing this I think I would have waited until I had time to restore the bumper whilst doing this other work, it would just save the time of re assembling it only to have to remove it again, remove the newly installed splitter, to paint it.

Hi, Great video. I am a new subscriber and really enjoy your videos. I do most things car wise myself too and it’s nice to see others do it too. You have a few cars on the go at any one time. How do you insure them or whom do you use as a multi car policy? Chris.

Saw those spanners when I went in to look at offset spanners, didnt think they had a deep enough neck for my shock absorber. They do have some nice offers though. I like their tool section since the refurb too, all nicely laid out. B&Q do have some discounts down the centre of the electrical aisle.

Loving the videos. You’re far too eager to point things out before others do though. Most would blink and miss it but you worry a great deal about what others think and say when you shouldn’t. Don’t anticipate people’s reactions my friend, it’s a slippery slope and one you will not get back up from.

Just a thought... but when bolting the splitter to bumper on the underside the bolt heads that were visible perhaps you could of put some plastic fixing caps over them - the ones similar that industrial roofers/cladders use to prevent corrosion

Your logo on the grill is the I from Irmscher. This looks like a genuine part from them. You should have a marking on the outer edge saying Irmscher Typ 2001050 or something like that.

These modern headlamp units that incorporate the indicator light I think are dangerous because the front headlamp is usually angled so light from the sky is reflecting on the front making the indicators far less clear.
