Where to buy rear spoilers and body kits for my car!!I've got the newer model of the vauxhall corsa and was hoping to modify the car slightly by having a new body kit and just making it look nice.
Does anyone know where I could buy the gear. Cheap prices would be helpful

Re: Where to buy rear spoilers and body kits for my car!!IMO the only bodykit that will make a new car look better is the ones you can have factory fitted. You see a lot of new corsas in white with black wheels and I think they got a spoiler and some sideskirts on them. Maybe you can get them. Vauxhall will no doubt be way too expensive so try eBay, there may even be one breaking on there.
For example, this VXR is breaking: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/vauxhall-c...item1c28cdbe7c -

I think it will ruin it. -

Maybe your right, guess I'll just need to buy a real sports car one day. Lamborghini perhaps. Haha

Re: Where to buy rear spoilers and body kits for my car!!It's always better to put spare cash away to save for a better car than to spend it trying to 'polish a turd', so to speak.(Original post by Golden_Boy786)

Not that a new style Corsa isn't a nice car... But unless you're going to use it for rallying, bodykits are a pointless waste that usually make the car look tacky, make the driver look like a boy-racing fool, hike insurance premiums and reduce resale value...
Basically, you'll lose a lot of money and have what most people would regard as ugly in exchange... Not worth it. -

Re: Where to buy rear spoilers and body kits for my car!!As much as I think a Corsa is a shed and nobody should put a hideous bodykit on it. It's his choice to do what he wants with it, and maybe he'll learn a thing or two on the way about cars (which is one or two things more than 90% of the people on this forum know).
For everyone saying 'don't waste money on doing up a shed and save for something better' - you can apply that to EVERY car you get. At what price point does it become impossible to 'save for something better'. You could have a GTR and get slated for modding that because you could buy an Ascari A10...
Also, ignore people who think your insurance will automatically go up. Ring your insurer to check. It's likely it won't increase, but they won't cover the cost of body kit should you write it off or have it stolen etc.
Do whatever you want; as long as your car is roadsafe and not a danger to others.
