there is going to be a rather large price difference between uthe paint jobs you have described!!!!
white = easy job
chance of colour much harder
loads more materials
but would look nice

you nosher! of course i know what euro is. i wouldn,t be spending all this money on it if i didn.t. 16 inch wheels, 10 inch wide at back and 8 inch wide front. flared arches so it doesn,t fail the mot lowered 60mm. now if you think that aint euro you are as stupid as you sound! now bugger off and be a prick elsewhere

Well i dont think you know what euro is as you said "i am going euro so will have massive wheels and arches" and that is not euro.

Also no euro corsa's have 16" rims thats too big. 13" or 14" is the norm.

yeah i will rate you on that. that looks like mine but yours is ten times better. how did they get your bumper to look like that ? top and bottom grills look good. i like it looks very sweet

sigibbons i told you to bugger off. stop making irrelevant points, if you have nothing to add that is useful then go away and pester some little boys or sumthin

Keep it white, it will look good and cost alot less due to not having the inner doors and engine bay sprayed too

you obviously have no idea what euro is, and dont make comments towards people if they point out the truth. no euro style corsa would have 16'' wheels. and euro is lower than -60mm, wow. ive seen cobat ktted corsas down -80. euro is stupidly low, on air bags or 'drolics. like -100+.

keep it white, go over the whole car with rubbing compound and an electric polishing machine, it makes a huge difference.
