because the corsa's bolt to the sides of the bonnet, not right under it like escort's etc, so, they would try to squeeze the bonnet inwards' :lol:

iirc corsa ones need to be a bit pf plate with a hole drilled at either side, since the bolts holding the bonnet on at the back are horizontal.

The ones in the link look like they're vertical spacers?

It's what I thought as well.

Function over form as well is it not? Helps a lot with air flow in and around the engine?

And helps even more with TB's if I'm not mistaken.
