Hi,
I got a 5dr corsa in white and have just got my new Vectra Style bumper back from being sprayed (free of charge i have to add). Im not a fan of having the arches and all the black plastic trim sprayed white. I have decided or at least thought about having the white bumpers as they are but getting rid of the black plastic in favour of gloss/metallic black.
What are your thoughts on this idea?

Better still get a 3 door.....

Im known for being very particular about what i do, and for some reason even though friends and family and now you guys here have said NO to the idea, im tempted to do it anyways.
If i do, being a very stubborn person, and I post pics once its all done, will you be willing to express your honest opinion as to how crap it looks.
To be honest tho i just want to be different, there are so many 3drs out there, which do all look pretty tasty, but i had the 5dr bought me, and seeing as there are fewer done up, i think thats what i'll go for. Im confident i can do it, so I will be sure to keep you all updated on how badly it all goes.

Your a braver man than me.
TBH I think its the shape of the back end that lets the 5 door down more than the 2 extra doors.

Those two 5drs are the nicest corsas ive seen, they look more manly. But i guess it just depends on what you like really. Im doubtful about mine looking any good, but then its only a run around, the other car is the main one...so if it goes wrong i will just get rid.
But i do value your comments, cheers even though im sure i can make it look ok. But hey, we'll see, it'd be pretty boring if i done what everyone else done.

Theres no point ranting and raving, im the one who has to drive the car, if it looks good then im happy, if i get laughed at, well i guess ppl are still looking so as long as it turns heads i dont care how lol.
It would be nice to have a car everyone loved but its all a bit of fun anyways...
as for taking it well....? care to share any info on that one?
