At first I also thought the front bumper was much, but then again VeilSide make outrageous kits. A pic really can't do it justice. I let someone drive my car down the road and it was unbelievable to look at. I've got a movie somewhere of it. Just gotta figure out how to upload it.

Thanks, stavs. It has been a lot of work and a lot of moola has been spent. I have lost count.
I've noticed that all UK corsa lovers love the bubble taillights! well, if you really want a set, then go to http://www.autostyle.co.za/ and click on the opel/vauxhall tab. You should see the lights you want, but the pricing is unfortunately in rands. They do ship out of SA and they will ship to you too. Alternatively, you can email naeem@autostyle.co.za and ask him what it will cost to ship it to you. You can tell him Tony from TeamKrazy in South Africa sent you.

I sold my old ones... sorry bud.
Shouldn't be a problem. Let me know beforehand and I can organize for you. I just stay in the Free State region. The real cool places to be is Gauteng and the Cape. Then again all the crime is there too...

But then we would have missed out on the glorious 16v engine.
Tony, what power does the C16SEH have in standard form?
