Very nice, I just got some Corsa tips in the mail today. Can't wait to put them on.
I'm like you though, I spent the extra money on the real things. The clones are nice but there's nothing like the real thing.

Very nice. Good decision to go with true Corsas. I don't mind the clones, but they're a tad small.

They look good, but it looks like you have them on the wrong sides.

Welcome to the Corsa club! I think Trust is right, you might have those on the wrong sides.

You mounted them on the wrong sides!

Oopps. I wondered why they didn't look right, when Trust mentioned it I went back and looked. Take 'em back to the exhaust shop and have 'em switched over.

Wait a minute! Corsa is selling their tips without having to buy the whole catback now? They told me they don't do that a while back.

I don't think he has them backwards. Looks like they don't have a right and left.

Corsa didn't sell the premium tips without the catback but the pro tips you can get

Wrong - there is a right and left and it does look like he has them backwards.

Am I? Ok go ahead and switch them. I know there is a right and left on the ones you get with the f body catback. But, take a good look at that first pic where they sit side by side. From what I can tell he only has them on a little twisted with the outside tips pointing down a little.
Better yet look at them on their website
