required:
driver's (offside/right) front wing,
 driver's door,
driver's xenon headlamp,
driver's headlamp lower trim
driver's front fog
 and complete front  bumper with wash jets if possible
  z157 2au star silver 3
any help appreciated in sourcing these  :)

Thanks but a bit far to travel for a door ,
I'm waiting on a few local people to get back to me who may have z157
Easter weekend though. it's derivable ,but i'm still using my 93 carlton atm.
someone has all 3 but z147 20 miles away but i'd rather not paint if possible
(other than the masses of underseal,waxoil etc i'll be throwing at it's belly)

Little if any detectable difference between 147 / 157 in my experience.

So I went and got the driver door but someone had robbed the central locking motor
wing is ok,any light scratching should polish out  :)
the bumper is rough  :'(
,got it anyway ,just in case "the red baron's " bumper don't pan out
also got the wing mirrors (as spares ,they get broken as cars squeeze past )

the donor car is indeed a 2,2 sport ,one owner z157 (02 plate) ,very tidy inside,mint seats and mint halogen headlamps due to having vauxhall  protector covers (which where chipped so i did not bother getting them), scrapped due to auto box failure
donor is in shirebrook auto salvage ,mansfield(ng20 5sg)

Any news please Mr Red Baron on the bumper you have  :-\
