Unfortunately you'll have to make up a new chassis leg from scratch, as they're not available any more and no-one does repair sections for them.

Or find a shell with good ones and faff about drilling them off.

As far as i know these sections are the same as a corsa b, if so go to your local scrap yard and find a car with good solid bits and get them cut off.
