The rieger grill and eyebrow fits all corrados, early and late

Which front spoiler have you got?, theres an early one and late one, the early one is 90mm and the late one is 50mm, you could always fit a late 50mm spoiler when you lower it

I tinted mine red a while ago, required a lot of red to make them look like the bottom half, they looked great but ended having to tut cut some of the red off, cause they shined too red, now the top half looks dark orange, which doesent look so good, heard about the green indicator trick, so im thinking about re tinting them again and using green bulbs, just wonering if anyones tryed it yet?, does it work? Instead i was thinking about buying some all clear fks, then tinting them red, shouldnt need anywhere near as much red tint on those, so maybe they will shine more orange, or could maybe fit yellow bulbs in them, then they should shine orange What do you think?

The only thing i would do is change the gold bolts to chrome ones

When you say collars, do you mean the spring plattforms? Dont think i can replace anything on them can i?, as the part ive twisted/bent is part of the whole damper?

EDD.... PM funky from this forum, he works in a bodyshop, he should be able to give you any advice you need on prepping your car

Need to get 2 new coilovers now...o dear Coated them in loads of wd40, then tryed the coilover spanner on them, wouldnt budge, then put part of an old exhaust pipe over the spanner for more leverage, all that did was rip chunks out of the plattform, and bent the spanner, So the only option i had left was to use some plumber stilsons (big ones) on them, and they are siezed on so much that ive atchully twisted the whole shock £299 for 2 rear spax coilovers.....o dear

Going by my past expierences: I think you kind of get what you pay for regarding painting/respraying, had the bonet and wing resprayed on my old 16v on the cheap, and sure, it does look good when its first done, but with mine after a few months, what looked like little bubles started to appear arround the crease of the wheel arch and some on the bonet, then I was later told by someone that it was moisture underneth the paint. I think £900 sounds about right for a top notch job for the front end

The rear spring plattforms on my spax coilovers appear to be siezed on, they wont wind up or down They were on the car when i bought it, so i've got no instructions, but they are supposed to able to wind up and down whilest on the car right?...or am i missing something?, any ideas?

I can help you with the lights They are a diy job, all the info you need is here: http://www.corrado-club.ca/mods/tailtints.html

Dam it!!, you've beaten me to it!!, been pondering on that idea for quite a while now, at least now i will know what they will look like on a corrado Your car looks great by the way. Should have my new wheels on soon, you'll have to pop round and have a look

Jay........those are mx5 mirrors are'nt they?

Im after a latter us spec bumper, if anyones got one, or im willing to swap

Do you mean identcal repicas or would you settle for a rim with a similar design?

What about pressing new bearings in?, do you need a tool for that?

Just read on a page off the net, and its says the date is 1st of august 92 it also said its not the law to have a cat, you've just got to pass the emmisions test, which in most cases you need a cat to do that........but my car passed the emmisions test without a cat

I thought all k reg cars should have cat, mines a 92 k reg and my local garage said it has to have cat, he looked it up in the book, im sure he said the date was about aprill 92, if thats true, it means late j plates should have a cat aswell Could be wrong...but i think thats what he said

I dont think there are any advantages on putting 9s on the back cause the car is fwd, if you are definately sure you want 7.5s on the front, then it would be best to put 7.5s on the rear also, cause with 9s on the rear, imo the car would look a bit odd cause the rear wheels would be so much more deep dished than the front If it was me i would put 9s on the front and back, but its your car so its up to you

Sorry, i couldnt tell you how much it costs, or how they done it, it was included in the price of the 20vt conversion and they were already on my car when i got it, I do know they are custom hybrid ones, they didnt shorten the existing ones, Check out there webpage, go to conversions, mine is the featured corrado, its got the full spec

your car is beautiful

JBS made custom driveshafts for mine, they look really good aswell http://www.jbsautodesigns.co.uk/

...Hmmm, how safe are they tho? Especially as you only have one bolt holding the adapter to the hub, and then 4 bolts placing additional stress on the adapter?!! :shock: :?: No, there's 4 bolts holding the adapter to the hub, 3 bolts going through just the adapter into the hub (underneth the wheel), and one bolt going through the wheel and adapter into the hub, the 4 remaining holes in the 5 stud wheel screw only into the adapter

Yeah, you would probably have to buy a higher offset, if you were to run 15mm adapters, you wouldnt necessarily need to get a wheel with an offset 15mm higher, maybe get them in a 10mm higher offset than standard, they look better spaced out a bit

No, there not double adapters, althou they do double adapters aswell for a different aplication Look at the system 4L adapters on the website, they are the ones, the double adapters are system x, they are different The ones on german ebay are 15mm thick and 20mm thick
