please will some one try to put me off doing this to my raddo this summer, if you do this your self how much will it cost approx

ive now had both rear arches pulledby 3/4" this has left me neading oth rear 1/4 pannels spraying. It has given me enough space to run pretty low, however im going to set my coilovers lower to a point where it catches and then raise it enough not too. Imo 9" rears are a pain in the arse.

from experience of my 9" borbets, it seems much lower than stock and the arches badly foul the arches, even with a decent strech on. Im getting some arch work done on sat 12th and will update then, but im fearful this will almost certianly need paint.

cheers mate, are they adjustable stiffness? I have some cheap o ebay coilovers, but im not sure they are stiff enough?

any advice for this subject most appreciated!

ok i made a make shift arch roller and folded the lip, but my rears are still rubbing on about a 2" drop, ive decided this is primarily due to the fact i bought some cheap ebay coilovers which are way too soft for the job, Ive now decided my options are; 1. Get some decent rear coilovers or use std shocks with lowering springs and run on the bump stops. 2. make some bump stops for my gash coilovers 3. pay a pannel beater to actually pull the arches 4. sell my lovely deep borbets 9js and buy the same ones as the front for the rear. I really really really wanna run 9's out back but at what cost im not to sure. I was only intending on lowereing the corrado and running some nice wheels on her. But i can see my self getting sucked into a project. what would you do?

I see, i did by a set of rims there once for my citroen AXGT when i was 18. I saw that they were gone from near the train station and dont know where the have gone?

crikey in honesty ive seen so man with 9's on the back i didnt think it would be too bad!! Ive found a place i poole called "creative colour workshop" which are going to modify them to take the wheels. I just hope it doesnt lead to me doing paint work cause i promised my self this would be a mega low budget project for the summer :shock:

Hi ive only had my corrado a few weeks but have took it upon my self to completley ruin it. Not only have i fitted some coilovers but just bought a brand spangly new set of borbets with 9's out back. The problem is; i vastly underestimated how much they were going to rub at a reasonable ride height, and to stop this i may have to jack the rear up a bit which will look awful. Ive seen numerous corrados running 9's a lot lot lower than mine and this is half the reason i bought a corrado if im honest , i think they look awesome low on wide rims. It seems i need to roll the arches, bout how, who and where can i get this done, ive got no idea at all. I live in Salisbury, Wiltshire which is kind of near southampton and bournemouth. Any advice or reccomendations of who / how im gunna get this done would be well well well well appreiciated cheers and nice forum Ollie

Hi i have seen a number of bump strip-less raddo's whilst browsing the net, trying to find inspiration of how to make my super low budget beast look better, and cleaner. are these bump strips drilled / riveted on to the pannels or are they just stuck? my car is an m reg 2.0 16v. any sugestions appreciated Ollie
