Hmm i've only left mine on because i'm not C/C am i. And imo if it's a SXi/Sport they should be left on. SPlits the car up imo.

But with your's going to be all C/C i'd take then off.

im adding little bits of black to break the red up though so its still subtle

when i got kit painted i was so close to getting it done vaux saphire black even the painter said do it but backed out at the last minute

I'd have liked it sapphire black,all red corsa's are C/C arn't they that's the thing. :/

But it will look nice all painted up red.

Yea true mate.

The good point of having the car all C/C is you can keep the Speedlines silver. Best colour for your car imo. But all the gloss black will just make it look cleaner mate.

I don't think the Speedlines will look out of place at all dude.

Would you be selling your sport interior any time soon? Gsi kit is going to top the car off, but I'd take the bump strips off when fitting tbh. And a smooth post rear bumper would look better imo. You got any smoothing planned?
