I need to replace a few bits (due to the previous owners lack of talent avoiding non moving objects)
driver's (offside/right)wing, driver's door,driver's xenon headlamp,driver's front fog and complete bumper in good old z157 2au star silver 3
so have a few questions if someone could help me please ?
I searched the forum and someone said the estate front door fits the saloon ,please confirm ?
are all the wings the same ? facelift and pre-facelift ?
i'm struggling to find a bumper z157 and with headlamp washers ,can I retrofit my washers from my old bumper ? onto a non washwipe bumper (or just not have washers fitted on the replacement)
i'm trawling ebay local to me in midlands/derbyshire areas
any advice much appreciated :)

Front wings same all round, as are front doors for any given year... There are differences between door details and wiring pre/post facelift, but not insurmountable. Rear doors likewise, although the window frames are a different shape... Again not insurmountable, but estate doors are available. :y
-
Also, easy enough to retrofit washers into a non washer bumper. Just mark out the same shaped hole in the same place and drill a hole, then cut out the little notches with a Stanley knife or similar.
Z157 shoukldnt be hard to sourse, as it was a very common colour. Might be worth a wanted ad on here, or failing that, contact omegas52 on ebay.

All genuine bumpers, including Irmscher ones, have the exact holes outlined underneath :y

I wish I had known that when I did mine. It would have saved me a lot of measuring and pissing about. ;D
