Yeah the idea is any VAG, but it's not a hard set rule. Cool, well hopefully will see you soon

Mic, Im still getting used to facebook, but are you able to get to the event link and self invite, if you wanted to that is?

Would be good to finally meet you mate, we can compare notes lol Plus want to chat to you about coilovers.

We can look into it depending on the turn out this April. I need to chat to you in person on getting a contact at that place.

Cheers Chris for the Promo! As Chris said it would be good to get some numbers up for this, you never know, if things turn out well we may repeat and expand it out to become a regular thing. Someone mention abandoned air strip?

Good speaking to you John "16VG60", lets hope this group buy works out. 3corsameal, I'm not prepared to waste anyone's time, if I have 10 people showing an honest interest then I can ask for a correct quote and ask any questions that pop up on this thread at the same time. This thread is currently in the group buy feelers. Once a group buy is starting to take shape Ill get it transferred to "group buys" and include the prices etc I've included you 3corsameal as an interested party.

Sorry to see you go after being on here for so long! Have fun with the dodge. Take care.

well the weight saving on the bonnet is 10kg. I would guesse that the boots can save more, if you decide to use plexi glass instead they weight saving would be much more. Im sure they can do without the wiper hole as they have the option on the bonnets to have or not have washer jet holes. I dont want the wiper hole either.

no probs, just hard to judge on forums. £300 for fibre glass, £700 for full carbon and mid way for a hybrid....but these are just rough ideas

shaun two things, firstly the first post states a rough price will be similar to the bonnets they do already(£300-£700). secondly this is to test the water, once I have 10 people interested Ill call them back and get them to do a better quote. Once the quote is back Ill contact all those interested to let them know and see if they still want to go for it. Are you showing an interest Shaun?...

Once we have 10 showing interest Ill get a price and details sorted. What kind of things are you wanting to know Matt?

It did occur to me, but at least it will keep the rust at bay!

yup

I recently spoke to Performance trim and they mentioned they could do a carbon fibre or fibre glass or even a mix boot/rear version of the boot/rear hatch * "Fully carbon' option will be £670 inc. vat. (gloss carbon outer and inner frame). * "'Standard carbon" option will be £505. * Fibreglass option will be £280. To get a firm price we need at least 10 people.

C488ADO 3. bobsinclare 4. 16VG60 - Full Carbon (Deposit Made) 5. 3corsameal 6. aaronmk2 7. onestep - Full Carbon (No Deposit Made yet) 8. big ben - Fibre Glass 9. blue95 10. ? No longer interested 8vMatt coullstar The number plate plinth will be a separate item like the original. Carbon plinths may be made available as an extra at a later date, but there's no weight saving there. No wiper hole or bracket system The original spoiler mechanisms will fit as standard, as design may be created for fixed-spoiler brackets to save all the weight of those mechanicals 12 weeks lead time until we see the corrado moulds being finished after all deposits have been taken. Once moulds are done, they can make 2-3 parts per week - in the order in which deposits are placed. To get the group-buy rolling, a minimum total order of 10 parts, at least 5 need to be carbon. This helps us cover our initial tooling costs. We can take a minimum 50% deposit on the order, The remaining 50% plus p&p can be paid when the part is ready.

fitted Carbon bonnet

I may be depending on time/date

mods, has this been stickied?

you can upload either way. if you go in the advanced posting you have the option to attach a file eg pics

Hi and welcome. The black cylinder container sounds like the carbon can filter. doesnt seem to do anything these days due to their age but were used for emissions. The blue plug sounds like the ambient temp sensor, that normally fits to the bumper The last wire, I cant say for sure.

As promised. Will be painted body colour soon The original is about 18kg, the carbon one is just 7kg!!

dalhalvaig, the strips were removed during the respray. Just havent got round to replacing them. In other news, just had a nice bit of carbon fibre turn up, will take pics and give more details soon. Cheers Josh, great dealing with you as always.

Ive had this happen a few times now. getting a little frustrated and means that I cant be bothered to post on the forum sometimes

yipeee!!! You going to gti spring fest in April? Im hoping to

As supercharged and Kempy say. The top picture has a slight cut out too which looks to have been made to allow for the vr rad to fit, Ive never seen that before! Normally that area is steel on non vr's

very nice.
