hi, im looking to purchase the "Irmscher IRS Rear Spoiler" ( http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/irmscher-irs-rear-spoiler-for-corsa-c/101336951 ). HOWEVER, i own a standard 1.2 twinport corsa C (55 REG); As far as im concerned you need an SXI to fit it on. i have checked the area to fit the spoiler on MY car and the location is part of the bootlid (not able to be slotted out or replaced). does this meen i cant fit it onto my car??

Not a big fan of that spoiler. Doesn't seem to fit with the curves of the car. How about an SRi spoiler?

okay, i think NathanR makes a valid point.

HOWEVER, back to my main question, will a spoiler fit onto my standard 1.2 corsa c?? i dont have an SXI/SRI?!

i have checked the area to fit the spoiler on and the location is part of the bootlid (not able to be slotted out or replaced). does this meen i cant fit it onto my car??

The IRs spoiler will fit fine. Doesn't need anything special, all C's have a boot lid like that.

Go for one of these, it looks far better.

Just bolts/bonds on. Tigerseal (or similar) is your best bet for bonding on spoilers/bumpers.
