On a corsa c 2000-2003 model there are 2 black strips, one on the front bumper under the headlights and another just under neath the boot. I was wondering if anyone has ever seen these two parts sprayed the same colour code as the car?
Some pics would be great if anybody can get any as im thinking about doing this to my car.
Thanks

Are you talking about the unpainted rough plastic on the pre-face lift bumpers?
Before the facelift came about a few people had it painted, these days I think you are better off getting your hands on a facelift bumper and having the whole thing+inserts sprayed the same colour!

eBay for used ones. If you can pick them up in your colour, bonus. If not, buy cheap then get them sprayed by a bodyshop.
Avoid non OEM parts as the fit will be rubbish.
If you want brand new then obviously you'll need to go to your local dealer

If you want it completely colour coded yeah get facelift bumpers, they look really smart compared to the pre facelift imo.
Your best bet for getting the bumpers are ebay or gumtree or the forums!
