looks nice as it is, defo needs lowering but you got that covered. Personally i would change them rear lights, perhaps for GSi ones. Maybe an exhaust change too? What engine you got in there?

gsi rear lights are the same as standard corsa lights, they have some cool rear lights for not much money on www.ebay.de

Id say change the wheels too, alot of aftermarket alloys seem to cause less life to your wheel bearings, best getting some that are the right pcd and offset, a set of vauxhall cesaro alloys would go nice on yours, subtle exhaust would go well too.

For you 1st car mate, i think it look spot on. Maybe lowering a tad but apart from that you cant grumble. No claims bonus is more important than looks. :lol:
