I wish the black bonnet craze would die out. Makes no sense to me and suits very few cars.

pretty sure rio verde is a pre97 colour on corsas, that might be cyprus green. Much darker than rio verde

Rio verde and anthracite slabs is a good combo! I always like them!
A few small touches would make an improvement though

nah the cdx comes with horrible seats which look like they have came from a stagecoach bus, they hav no bolsters (flat). ya get more support on a parkbench. First thing i done was buy some early sport interior with door cards which hold me in lol.
