goneinG60seconds 0 Posted October 12, 2006 What would you buy for your C if cash was not an issue, from the headlights to the tail lights and everything inbetween. All suggestions welcome, as I'm thinking of adding some character to my G60. Thanks in advance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

goneinG60seconds 0 Posted October 12, 2006 styling over performance really but all ideas greatfully recieved keep 'em coming Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted October 12, 2006 Well imo stay away from bodykits, i dont think they suit the corrado. To get a nice subtle looking car then you want coilovers and then slam it to the floor, put some nice deep dish 16" wheels (with some arch work done so they fit). Red tint rear lights, badgelsss grill with or without eyebrow. If you want expensive but subtle mods then maybe some audi door handles, smoothed tailgate, smoothed roof channels and fully colour code it. Like said above the list is endless with money no object :) Rob. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goneinG60seconds 0 Posted October 12, 2006 Sounds good, any other tips or ideas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
just_say_meth 0 Posted October 12, 2006 Lots of smoothing can look quite subtle, de-locking doors and tailgate! And like above nice and low with a nice set of wheels! :thumbleft: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZippyVR6 0 Posted October 12, 2006 Have a look at Mikeg60s Monster, IMO the finest example I have seen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve_16v 0 Posted October 12, 2006 If it was money no object I'd go for a full bare metal respray, then a quality leather retrim with plenty of sound deadening put in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted October 12, 2006 For the interior i would go for the TT dash conversion with porsche leather seats and full re-trim, would look the nuts! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted October 12, 2006 Exterior Lower on coilies, ARB's etc Either 9 x 16s for the phat look or 8 x 17s Debadged, smooth handles, remove side strips, smooth bumpers Full respray, tinted lights front and rear (crystals, all red, smoked) Interior Leather recaros, or porsche seats with other leather Late spec dash, etc Quality audio install The list is endless...... Not forgeting... Full G-werks treatment for the engine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goneinG60seconds 0 Posted October 12, 2006 It seems everyone has the same idea with the exterior of smoothing, whilst i do admit this is an obvious and well worked mod, I cant help thinking i'd just be a sheep following the latest fashion. On the interior I wouldn't mind the porsche and leather with the TT dash. Anybody got any new/different concepts for me to think about? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

goneinG60seconds 0 Posted October 12, 2006 Mrbeige please dont think i was judging you or any other member, I was just trying to get a different range of opinions from you and the others and my phrasing is not as good as it could be! :oops: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you don't want predictable answers, don't ask predictable questions. Why not browse through the massive member gallery section and pull off some inspiration from there?

Obviously if you ask someone else what they would do, and then go and do it you will be (as you put it) a sheep following the latest fashion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted October 12, 2006 I'm seriously thinking about stripping out my G60 and making her into much more of a motorsport themed car while keeping her external looks pretty much as they currently are... Looking to lose a lot of excess weight from the interior to up the BHP/Tonne ratio in a positive way.... ;) Not seen many 'rados with the interior stripped out yet, so it's definately not a sheep-ish way of thinking anyway.... ;) Money no object? Carbon race seat, full FIAA roll cage, STACK dash instruments, plumbed in fire extinguisher and nothing else inside the car... oh, and maybe polycarbonate windows.... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The corrado doesn't suit any big body kits or the like (I reckon), so smoothed or OEM+ seems to be the prefered style. Quite like the idea of a rat-look, mind you, definately not been done often before (if ever!!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
