Glad to see you're enjoying the Corrado as much as I did :D
I know what you mean about black cars and looking dirty after a few hours.
I used Meguiars products on it to keeping it looking sweet. The NXT speed detailer is great between washes :wink:

I have toyed with a later grill, but I want to keep the car looking it's age and little more 'old school'.
A black badge though I may try.
I've just got a set of NOS front and rear 16v badges, but can't decide whether to fit them or not.
What do you guys think?

Some new pictures now I've gone OEM+
Hope you like it?!

Love 'em!
The wheels in black tie in all the other black trim to great effect.
Simply stunning!!

Cheers Yandards!

Do any of you guys happen to know the track width of a VR6 and more specifically how much wider (if at all) this is than a 1.8 16V?

Thanks for all the nice comments.
Thoroughly enjoyed building the car and reading posts on the forum.
There sure are some nice Corrados on the here, that have been inspirational.
TRIGGERMYSON: Next step was going to be the interior....but with a baby on the way the Rado may well be for sale to make way for something a little more practical

Thought I'd post up a few pics of my 'Rado and say thank you to the Forum for all the advice in it's restoration.

Hi Andy,
I got the front mount from Daren at G-Werks, he didn't rate the Vibratechnics item. What issue is the mount causing?
Hadn't noticed an issue with the clocks but then I wasn't using the car very frequently, my appologies.
The boot and total closure definitely work.....you need to hold down the associated button for at least 3 seconds.
Just starting the packing :(....biggest job will be my shed :lol:
