dub envy 0 Posted December 23, 2006 Got any pics of that pic being taken? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JBOB 0 Posted December 23, 2006 Got any pics of that pic being taken? The pic was taken by Dave Wigmore from Golf+. I did ask him if I could take a pic of the tripod/suction cups that were sticking out the back of my car but he didn’t want people to see how he does it. Which is fair enough really. All I had to do was take the handbrake off and roll down the hill so im only doing 2mph in that pic :lol: It look about 20 passes to get right though :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JBOB 0 Posted December 23, 2006 Did you smooth your front bumper yourself dude? If so, how did you do it? After seeing my mate try and smooth his Mk3 Golf bumper with filler :lol: which cracked within a week :lol: I got a local small bodyshop to do it. Its plastic welded and it hasnt cracked etc in the last year that ive had it done. The car get used every day so I think if it was gonna go then it would have by now :wink: The bodyshop that did it hadnt done a Corrado bumper before so only charged me £120 inc painting it 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted December 24, 2006 The bodyshop that did it hadnt done a Corrado bumper before so only charged me £120 inc painting it 8) That's a good price! Considering some numpty reversed into mine recently and it needs fixing anyway, I might have to look into that at the same time!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C. Will Corrado G60 2 0 Posted January 3, 2007 JBOB, WOW, your air ride looks amazing. Always thought about doing it but VERY worry about handling. Is it as good as your coilovers? Also can you adjust the height on the move? (just thinking about all the speed bumps round my way) Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JBOB 0 Posted January 3, 2007 JBOB, WOW, your air ride looks amazing. Always thought about doing it but VERY worry about handling. Is it as good as your coilovers? Also can you adjust the height on the move? (just thinking about all the speed bumps round my way) Cheers Thanks :D Id say that the air ride kit im using is just as good as the Koni coilovers that I had on before, that’s probably because the kit uses Koni struts 8) The ride is a bit strange at first though as its feels really firm round the corners like a decent set of coils but you dont get any of the crashing on the potholes, just really nice and smooth. I think that as with everything now you get what you pay for. Yep you can adjust the height to what ever you want while moving I used to have to go the long way round to work because of some major pyramid type speed humps ...... not a problem now :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
