Just thinking about doin this to my corsa, is it a tricky job and is it likely to leave marks (ie need respraying) ??

Its very tricky, You may need a haynes manual or get a professional to do it. It could cost mega bucks though.

No, he is taking the piss.
Getting them off is easy, heat them up slightly with a heat gun and they will peel off, then get some tar remover to get the glue off.
Badges you shoulkd get away with taking them off without leaving any marks or owt, door strips are another thing though.

All you need is a hairdryer or some hot water, then you can just peel off the badges! Simple!

the normal vauxhall corsa badges are ok t-cut will do it, however the industrial glue they use to stick the side strips and badges like the sri ones will need somit a lot stronger, will try tar remover on the weekend.
