two hopes without rolling arches. even then, they'll look terrible.

the rather frank answer is it depends if you want you car debadged or not :lol: i quite like a black grille/badge combo.. I also like debadged and debadged with eyebrow on the right car. keep the spare and alternate as and when you want to. [shameless plug]If you're looking for a debadged grill i have a brand new one here at £25 posted.[/shamelessplug]

Hmm.. hard to say without seeing the car or seeing pics, I guess its going t come down to how much it'll cost you to get everything sorted. Are you bristol based? I have a friend with a late car for breaking with from memory a decent rear end. You could probably cut away as much as you want for a fairly low cost - otherwise Cazza on here also had one. May end up a bit 'cut n shut' but if it's not structural it'll be more down to quality of workmanship this time round. Alternatively, you could contact this Ebay seller and see if that shell is still available?

I saw the best one yet on facebook yesterday - pizza guy and girls in bikinis.. not suitable for here though! :lol: :norty:

I've just been having a look at the calender for Castle Combe this year and they're offering stands with free admission for 12 cars to owners clubs. I'd be going anyway, so if I can get a stand together and get free passes I'm happy to put in the donkey work. The 'I should have organised this sooner part' is there is a competition for free track time if entries are received by Sunday 24th February If there's not huge interest, it's not the end of the world, but could be worth going for if names are in quick. The only fair way to give free passes is first come first serve, with a reserve list. We'd have to arrange meeting at 8-8:30ish to get on the stand by 9am, so please bear this in mind if you want to come. Event info Clubstand info THE LIST! 1.bristolbaron

should defo make a difference on courier. wheels and tyres come in around 20kg, so need to be sent as four boxes. wheels on their own about 20kg for 2 so can be sent as only two boxes = half price shipping! good price, great wheels.. id put them on my mk2 if i had spare funds!

Still available from ARZ @ 270 euros plus post.. doesn't make these a bargain, but not a saving. Clumpy - that set in the G60 were butchered to fit :( it was an early dash, as is yours, so these wouldn't fit anyway.. http://www.arz-tuning.de/shop/product_info.php/info/p9755_Oil-Pressure---Voltmeter-Gauge---VW-Corrado--new-style-interior------right-hand-drive-RHD.html

thats madness asking for unsigned for! did you pay by paypal? i'd raise a dispute..

I keep looking at this ad just for the fact there's a set for sale! I went through a phase where I was desperate for a set but I think it was more down to not being able to find any. :lol: Pricing is indeed hard, especially with the retrim as someone's really gonna have to either do their interior to match, or trim these to match what they have. Having said that, a new set of CS's are gonna cost you £2k, these retrimmed maybe £250 more.. I know what i'd prefer.

imo a wrap on a rado is gonna be a terrible idea. any rust bubbles, dents etc will show through for starters so unless your paint just looks flat you're already on the back foot. then take into consideration all the grooves etc that modern cars dont have - ends of roof strips will look bad, same for bumper grooves & fog/indi light inserts. textured sill area will peel away. im not saying dont do it, but whilst from a distance the car may look good [as a cheap respray would] when you're close up it's gonna bug you.

:lol: :lol: I know!! and i've never had a nugget.. maybe its a sign :bonk:

what do you want to know? im probably driving past that way tomorrow, might have time to check it over..

Amazing! I'll wash your new car and sort out your mrs for you at the same time shall I :lol:

You're missing the fact he actually has kids, a wife and a dog and leaving them at home isn't a real world option. For a singleton, the corrado is great. If you need the practicality of a large daily car, then why not have one you can have fun in?

Also factor in the cold weather and winter for corrado doors is a pita. [by the way car door is an anagram of corrado] My doors are fine in warmer weather but bounce as soon as the cold sets in.

very unlikely these days to find something for £100! put out a gumtree wanted ad and see what comes up.

i changed the matrix on mine with the dash in place, only to find once i'd refitted everything that the heater box wasnt working properly so had to take it all apart again. second time around i took the dash out as it's fair easier that way. about the same timescale either way but less likely to break something if you take everything apart.

yep darrens started again as one-zerofour he's not really doing vag stuff, but sure he would still undertake a rebuild. i'd say jmr would be your best bet now.. forum member and rado owner with good rep.

i have a trade account with the bristol branch, but unless you're local by the time postage [and me collecting and posting etc] is factored in the prices really aren't that great. it's not that i wouldn't want to help someone, but for me to spend a couple of hours collecting, paying for, and posting a part out to save someone a few pounds really doesn't seem worthwhile. I'd say use your local dealer for parts gsf/euro can't supply and blag as good a discount as possible!

he's coming back!!!!!

to be honest, i've never found this to be the case.. even if it is, most pistonheads members seem to prefer a large selection of cars than 300 lambo's! I took the r32 to the caring with cars meet and had one guy say mine was the car he wanted to see above all others - a massive compliment considering the cars in attendance!

not really :lol: what are the wheel offsets? they're a set of 7.5s all round and you want them to look staggered? how much do you want them to tuck/poke?

watching! will you post?

what sizes are you after bud?
