blue95 0 Posted April 18, 2006 O is that what you call it !!! LOL! It is currently almost in two pieces, guy at work said he would glue it back together for me! Was gonna use fibre glass repair kit, but that drys stiff, where as I need it too remain flexible. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blue95 0 Posted May 17, 2006 Well cooler for the engine!!! My old rad, not bad for 11 years graft! now replaced with geniune VW, also hammerited the metal fan shround and lubed the fan. Other mods, changed engine mounts, as you can see front one has come apart, so was long over due! Has made a massive difference! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted June 17, 2006 Finally lowered courtesy of FK! also added FK grill and M3 lights! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted June 17, 2006 Corrado's just love 5 spokers....looking sweet! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted June 17, 2006 Cheers, I personally love 5 spokes, they seem to suit all cars and date very well. My alloys look OK, though the offset is all wrong though, even with 5mm spacers all round! As for the drop, think the front needs to come up a tad, as my front splitter is not making very nice noises over speed humps! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick 0 Posted June 17, 2006 Amazing how a few mods can make such a difference. Love it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted June 17, 2006 The standard Corrado is such a beautiful, the car looks great from all angles, unlike so many so called hot hatches past and present. Took it into work a few weeks back, some old guy was admiring it in the car park. The C seems to appeal to all ages. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
