Corsasport does not have a big enough 
You have used farrr too much sealant on that sump, It will break off into the oil inside and block your oil pickup and cause oil starvation and kill your engine.
You use a tiny amount so it don't break off inside and block pickup.
Anyway, All corsa airboxes are the same.
Edit: I haven't made it clear enough, TAKE THAT SUMP OFF! Redo it with a small amount of silicone!

corsa_breeze, take your attitude somewhere else.
People on here don't wanna be spoken to like this and if you have never heard the term "A grade Prick".
It means that your an absolute cock.
You don't just abuse someone like that. Bellend.

Is this not done yet?
As for the air filter, I would stick a K&N panel in there. All Corsa ones are the same size

I think that might be the facepalm that Alex was looking for
Its close to being done but it will probably still take another couple of weeks. Its just my bit on the side really lol, I have a car to get me around on a daily basis so I'm in no hurry for it
Thanks for clearing that up  I didn't know they were all the same

Yea there not that common, tidy Corsas aren't that common either tbh, don't see many around.
You should go for it mate if you can afford it, all the fun is in the building and then when you take a look at what you've made its very rewarding, and then when you get out in it I imagine it'll be even more rewarding  , especially if its a LET , if you don't go for it tell Keith to come and make mine as mint as his Nova
I would've probably took you up on that offer not that long ago but most of the work is done now , cheers for the offer mate, if I ever need a hand with it I'll be in touch

I might order one still, I'm afraid to update my thread at the weekend and I've got the 16v gaskets on again and you and Alex start shouting at me again

Yea will be much easier while the exhaust etc is off. I knew what you were saying was right but I'm too tight too by gaskets twice But since I fucked the other one up....
Going to be a mission getting all the gasket seal out of the bolt holes
