Still don't like it. Looks much better than the standard Corsa but I'd never buy it.......too overstyled for my liking. It suits the Astra being a bigger car. Personally I don't think a car this small can pull a kit like that off.
Plus its too tall and narrow.

love these, agreed on the point about rear lights, would look better if they both looked like the left hand side one

Only mod so far is a thinner high quality foam panel filter supplied by ITG.
It has made such a difference. You can really hear the air being sucked it and hear the turbo spooling up. The sound from the dump valve now isnt bad either.
With the standard panel filter you would thing you were driving a non-turbo car. Very very quiet unless you have the window down and even then you struggle to hear anything.
Future plans - Remap, remus or miltek exhaust system and lowered. No other external or interior changes needed really.

check the coolant pipe to the turbo is nice and tight. I know of 3 that have come loose on corsa VXR's Including one we have worked on. if it does come loose and loses enough coolant its a dead engine

A lad local has gone from a 1.2 nova (pink with a corsa bodykit bodged) to a 57 plate red corsa vxr, he's gone quite snobby.. wonder if I should tell him mmmmm

Reminds me of the bit from MIB when the alien stretches the guys face:
Can see why they stretched the headlights like that though, would have looked too much like the Astra is they went straight across from the line of the bonnet.
