hi guys, its almost 1 in the morning over here on the east coast of the U.S. i have a horrible story to tell. i dont think ive ever been this angry. just to let everyone know im only 15 years old. im very into my car and its just about all i can think about. well tonight i took my car out a couple houses down and got some flour for my mom. i came back parked the car in the garage and every thing was fine. well, ive never forgotten to put the e-brake up b4 and tonight was a first. i still would sware it was up when i got out of the car. well my garage has a hole out the back too. where my dad used to take his jeep down through the woods and play around. well my sister came home and asked me where my car was. i immediatly started to flip out. i ran out side and realized that it wasnt in the garage. my stomach dropped. i ran down the hill out the back of the garage and see the corrado up against a tree. i ran to it to see if i could see anything. it was really dark at this point. b4 i could look any more i turned around and threw up. ive been running around trying to get a flash light and there are none in the house. its still down there right now. from what it looks like after i upend the hood, thatt there is no damage done to the engine. it was done to the side that the battery is on (vr6) and im thinking that that is the better side to have something done to it on. im hoping its just the body that will need to be fixed. im sorry if this is the wrong place to put this entry, i didnt really know where else to put it. i just wanted maybe some corrado sympathy, and or some advice on what you would do. ill post again tommorow when i figure somthing out. bye.

-
where can i buy the paint to do that stuff. my car is flash red.
-
wow.... very nice C. i like the tail lights. did u tint those windows your self. if u did was it hard? also if u didnt was it expensive. thanks NICE CORRADO
-
alright thanks alot! ill show you a pic when i do it. this should turn out very well. thanks
-
on the back of the C in this picture where the liscence plate is, it is red where mine is black. his matches the rest of his car. it looks really cool with the tail lights red and that back part being red. i want to do that to mine. would that be cheap to get that liscence plate part to be red and also is it easily done. thanks -tjlink here

im looking for a grill for the C. the on i have right now, is black with a black VW emblem in the middle and the vr6 at the bottom. both those emblems are black. im guessing this is how it came stock. i would like pretty much the same grill but with the emblems to be like chrome or silver. i would rather get a new grill than just paint them cuz the grill is like cracked and split any ways. can any one give me some sugestions? - tj
-
haha yea... the insurance is gonna be expensive but... o well. alot people do think its really weird that im this into my car and i dont even have a liscense yet. but as soon as i saw the all i did was read about it. then i realized how big of a following the corrado had. since then ive been bugging my parents to let me mod. my corrado. i dont knwo whats gonna be first, we will see. - tj
-
yea thanks. i am on the east coast. just today i found a performance shop right by me. i dont know if any of you have noticed yet but i am very new to cars and dont know much. im 16 and only have a permit. but i am also very interested in my corrado and thats why i joined this forum. - tj
-
hmm... no real gains at all. this might be a dumb question. what if i get headers also. wont i notice some performance gains there. and if i do will the gain just be from the headers or will the headers help the exhaust out also. thanks - tj
-
1992 vr6 corrado. im pretty sure im getting an exhaust system soon. i dont know a whole lot about it :? . can any one tell me what they have? if you like it or not. also if any one wants to take the time to tell me a little about exhaust and how it works, also what you want out of it. thanks alot - TJ
-
i think it would be sweet to have one side of my car with shaved door handles like the show cars you see. how does that work? how much is it? will a normal body shop do it?
-
haha, thanks. didnt really think about that. sorry :oops:
-
thanks soo much for that info but i live in the states... so it will be hard to call. hehe. but thanks anyway
-
ehhh.... 1992 vr6 corrado. all stock. i think the first thing im going to do is put an intake on it. i need any and all sugestions on that. pretend i know nothing. or if u think there is a better first modification let me know. thanks - tj
