DONT LAUGH.
Mine looked a little corroded so I got some 'wiper arm boots' from halfords. They stretch over the bolt / bit of the arm covering the brittle plastic and rust. Look nice and subtle on my black car. Only £4.

Could Halfords order me the front splitter off a 97+ corsa to go on my 94 corsa? The black solid one that clips on?
