Ebay will be a good start. Standard GSI bodykits are fairly cheap when compared with aftermarket kits and tend to look better than the more lairy stuff available.

depends what look you want, if you want a subtle look then perhaps a gsi kit but they do go for alot of money.

Irmscher and steinemtz stuff is always nice but very rare to find.

If you want to go for a different look then i have always thought that the vectra gsi style bumper for the corsa is nice, i believe there on ebay in fiberglass for £100.

I would browse ebay and have a look at some kits on offer.

But go for whatever you like.

If you go for a GSI kit will you please do something different with it! (smooth out recess etc)

As for Irmscher and Steinmetz stuff being rare, no its not! its all on here!

If you want a big kitted Corsa, look for inspiration from Corb, Xtremewheels, boyracer2002. If the job's done right, big kitted cars can look amazing!

when i said rare, i meant its not all available anytime, and its not as easy to find as fiberglass kits are.
