Mk3 Cavalier Owners Club | Vauxhall Cavalier Dot Com

Thought I'd pop mine in to as I think I'll end up doing more than the listed bits...

as was when purchased...



colour matched engine cover...
Before:


Sprayed but before lacquer;


After lacquer and after a quick hand polish;


In the car;

"New" Sri side skirts complete with end caps that aren't in the picture, and Sri hatch spoiler (cheers gaz )

Now mostly sanded ready for paint

Looking good there squgglet

Least your getting a move on I have to wait for my SRi skirts and bits and bobs to be painted , mainly due to Gaz's bloody Nova getting priority

oh sorry about the vauxhall badge off the boot, but my Cav looked nude without it so Gaz got it for me yes he does have his uses

Curse you and your badge thievery!!!

Just want her to look pretty for PVS, got me some veccy handles to paint and fit too

I might get round to tarting up the rear lip spoiler in the yard and getting that fitted.

died a death... total electrical failure of most all components, ecu, trip computer, popping fuses for fun... got a GTE again to replace it which I need an 2.0 8v engine so emma can use it, so I have a 2.0 16v XE lump to swap if you know someone who wants one (anita never responded when I offered )

looking good matey! Before the v6 conversion I had the ecotec cover painted magic grey with red panel, really suited the car. But i Deside to go all red for the v6 lump. I tell you what would set of your engine bay treat. A chrome inlet manifold. Oh look what I've found in my shed! i'll take it to pod and get you to buy it off me

I'll save some cash and bring the socket set... we can fit it to an audience

Dont cry and you better sit down for this one. I paid £65 for the chrome inlet and £15 + cost of the rubber seals for the omega lower diveder, both ebay. Both i never used. the plastic deivider has new seals. I want £75 fo the set. you dont want to know how much it costs to post it, If i remember i paid £5 for the plastic deliveder and £15 for the inlet.

So I'm saving you the cost of that lol.

PM me your number and i'm send you a txt with a photo of the divider.

I'll take them for that mate

If Squig will change his mind I will grab it and few more bits and boobs for my Cav off you as long as you will help me fit them while we are there

Squig won't be changing his mind

OOOOO I can see a bidding war for the inlet starting

so what bits do you want paul?

Foxy wants the Sil plates

Squigster wants the inlet.

I bid £75 and a promise to break fingers if I'm sniped


I really want that inlet!

£85 and nice 1/2 pounder at Pod!

Nah, squig, keep them, you were first

well looking forward to getting these

If you lot have old TV mags, cant remember which one, they is a CDX v6 with a gsi kit one, in magic grey, the engine cover is colour coded and the inlet is chromed, it looks mint. the only reason I never bothered using it was cos my strut brace is alloy, and the two class. It took me ages to find a chrome one as well lol. But thought aslong as i get my money back i dont mind.

been sat for 12 mth but ran fine and pulled (excuse the cliche) like a train... just allow me to check it's still good week after pvs cos I have that week off and it's not local
