On a Corsa you'd leave the wings on as they're painted with the wings on in the factory. I think the bonnet is done on the car in the factory too as the bolts are painted, but if you got chromed/plated bolts then do it off of the car and it will still look good.
Bumpers off is an is obvious, some people do the doors off too, some leave them on.
On my car we've taken everything but the wings off. If you do want to paint under the wings you can get chromed wing bolts which will save it from looking tatty when you bolt it all back together. The only reason why I keep on going on about the bolts is because they're painted and if you want it mint you'll want to do something about them...
