VDUBBER 0 Posted May 16, 2006 Hello For the next year or so iam going to have to take my beloved corrado off the road :( But its not all bad while its off the road it is getting put in my new garage and haveing a small amount of money spent on her. Iam wanting to clean her up a bit and was just wondering if it will fail the mot if i delete the wing mirrors? And if any one has got an pics could you please post them up? cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bendy 0 Posted May 17, 2006 Hi mate and happy b-day 1st of all!!! my car currently does not have wing mirrors and did pass the mot, but it only passed because the guy who took it in for the mot for me knew the mot'er so if you take them off it will fail unless you know the mot'er or get some temp one's on for mot time. i'm in the process of getting some mirrors put back on after a brown pants moment going down a slip road to get on a motorway, looking over my shoulder to see where i could squeeze in the car in front decided he didnt want to go on in front of the lorry and slammed the anchors on!!!! so so close to a slightly banged front end!!! piccy of mine without mirrors so you get an idea of what it looks like!!

VDUBBER 0 Posted May 18, 2006 cheers mate. That would have been a shame to smash your corrado up it looks stuning. Have thought it would be difficult to drive but not sure if its worth it. They look great without the mirrors and areal. I have got a mate that test's cars but its going to be off the road for a year or two so wont have to wory about that for a while? Any more pics off any one will be apreciated some from the front if any one has any? cheers Old age sucks?????? lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VDUBBER 0 Posted May 18, 2006 Iam not to sure realy the usual slam it on coilovers. delete the rear wiper, areal and some sebring wheels love how they look on the corrado. lupo wipers up front and maybe delete wing mirrors if iam brave enough lol. just to start want to keep the interior looking stock to a degree. And you know how it goes after that start changing every thing and spending loads of cash on it until iam bankrupt. You got any plans By the way just looked at your pics that is a sweet corrado like what you done with it mate. Will post up some pics when i start doing the work Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
