I need to replace a few bits (due to the previous owners lack of talent avoiding non moving objects)
late 2003 facelift 2.6 cdxi z157 2au star silver 3 saloon
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 

[dave the builder]

I got the small bits ordered 
just need the door,wing and bumper now

Have a door here Z157 off 2003 elite £40 collected. Also bumper but in green if any help.?

[dave the builder]

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.

interesting  Thanks for the info 
I may go have a look at the condition of the z147 items then that are local

Bugger I've just sold most of a front end in Z157 , I've 2 very nice front doors, drivers wing with a wee dent that may pop out and the headlight trims left , available for cheaps if any use

I've a bumper from a 53plate 2.2 if that's any use. It is silver but don't know which one. Lol. No fogs or washers in though if I remember. Been in the shed years. Lol.

I'm heading out tomorrow to hopefully get the wing,door and bumper in z157
not seen them ,so unsure of condition 
so if the bumper is badly scuffed etc I may be interested in yours

no fogs is not a problem ,just had a pair delivered .
no washers from the factory ? i.e no holes or there just removed ?

I'm in Swadlincote so logistics is not an issue 


any chance you could check condition ,pm me a price please

Cool , thank you 

Rather not have the washers anyway 

I do a walk around my car before i go anywhere , if the lights where dirty , I'd wipe em 

[dave the builder]

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 

[The Red Baron]

Hi Dave, well I've located it. However, it may take a while. Need to move 2 doors, a bonnet and several wings, wheels blah blah. Lol. Give me a day or so. 
Jon.
