golfg60 0 Posted March 15, 2005 Hi chaps, I like the look of the RS front bumper and want to fit one to my corrado G60. The problem i have is that my current standard front spoiler catches on my driveway (due to the nature of the slope) and the car hasn't even been lowered yet. I plan to lower the car and fit the RS front bumper. Does anybody know if the RS bumper sits lower than the standard front bumper and 90mm spoiler (ie will they have the same ground clearance?)...if so maybe its not a good idea for me to do this :cry: Any help would be appreciated Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted March 15, 2005 depends on which RS bumper you get... ;) The Reiger full A-B-S plastic one (available from Venom and other Reiger dealers) is approximately 5mm deeper than the standard G60 bumper with an early (90mm) spoiler on it... The one I had on J-DUB (see pic in sig) used to catch going into my garage until I got hold of a piece of wood to put along the edge of the curb to soften the slope slightly... Blue-Joe now has it on his Corrado. 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
golfg60 0 Posted March 15, 2005 Cheers for the reply Henny. Argh, i'm going to struggle then especially if i lower it. I'll have to sort something out as i definately want to fit one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted March 15, 2005 any way of making your drive's slope different? ;) :lol: :-P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gibber 0 Posted March 15, 2005 Henny Would that be something like the 2 5 foot ramps that I have to use to get my VR out? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted March 15, 2005 nah, it was a single piece of 2inch thick (high) 6inch wide wood the width of the curb access into my garage... it was just the angle of the pavement was just too much and it'd catch just as you were about to go up onto the (lowered!) curbstones... 5foot ramps would have meant that I'd have raised the car up! :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
golfg60 0 Posted March 15, 2005 I'm glad i'm not the only one with this problem then. I would dig up my whole driveway if it means i can fit one of those. I'm sure there will be a bit of wood i can use.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted March 15, 2005 how about fitting air-ride suspension, change the ride height at the touch of a button (or 3!) ?!? ;) :geek: :joker2: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
