Full exhaust system, including manifold?

Or if you're thinking more aesthetics; lowering and alloys would be a good start. Any pictures of the car?

I would go against it, they are nippy little buggers

My brother has a mk5 Fiesta 1.25 zetec. It has full de-cat exhaust system, including manifold. The sound is It sounds like a mini V-tech

keep an eye on e-bay for some tigra wheels, there are two types that look very good on corsa. see warren g's garage for 1 set, the other come on a vectra and a tigra (make sure they are tigra one's though)

you could use eibach springs -30 rear and -50 front for a nice ride height and still retain some comfort

fk slatted grills allways look good

magnex oval or round tipped backboxes look and sound good

Would say lower and wheels too. Is it really worth fucking about with an ISA and 500 quid?!

I would think you could get an exhaust backbox as well as rims/suspension for that amount, unless you go for coilovers
