Hi guys, I've just bought my first mk1 GTE and was wondering what kind of money I'd be looking at paying for a tailgate and a front crossmember, would prefer genuine GM parts, any ideas? Thanks for any replays! |

There's a few tailgates knocking around at the moment but you'll struggle with a cross member.
I don't think a cross member would be that difficult to make thought. _________________ "A fine example of how not to build a car..."

Great, what about a complete front, still in black primer? |

£200-£300+ if you can find one mate for the full front GTE.
There's a company called Opel Classic Parts in Germany who are your best bet. Trouble is, shipping is extortionate.
I've got a full front for my GTE but it took months to find and it's not technically a GTE front although only I (and everyone reading this) would know once it's on. _________________ "A fine example of how not to build a car..."
