i would leave it as it is. the grey breaks up the red quite well.

a completly red corsa doesnt look well imo. not half as good as others such as white

When i had a few bits resprayed on my GSI, the colour match was ok, but really you have to have a blow over or respray to get the match perfect, so this is what i'm having to do
