Cult'ed Rado on cult society meet

[zuko 0]

Not sure if it is correct place for that one, but had to show ya, what my fellas found on cult-society.de season opening meet.

 

 

How u like it?

[Phil K 0]

different! not sure it works though...

[young dub 0]

That just doesnt work, especially the front end. The paint looks good quality and the colour bar the roof is nice. Also the rims could work on a corrado, just not that one.

 

Anymore pics?

[DaveVR6 0]

Almost works, just the bumpers make it look 'pinched'

 

Maybe a early shape rado would have worked better

looks unproportioned, but the quality of workmanship looks good. The beetle in the back looks awesome tho :D

expected more? something alongside the UPS rado when i clicked the link, boy was i dissapointed

[grimmy 0]

Yeah really not feeling that, i'm sure it seemed a good idea before they actually went to all the effort of doing it...

[Mave 0]

It's like a thalidomite :-|

The wing mrrors look stupid, the wheels look as though they have those fake brake discs people used to fit on their "drummed" Nova's, and the paint looks like a shade of primer. Albeit shiny.

That's one ugly mo fo.

 

I've got carrotts stuck in my teeth now.

Is there a typo in the first word of the thread title :wink:

The quality of the workmanship looks excellent, but for me, its not to my tastes.

 

But this scene is all about diversity and doing something different, and i'm all for that!

 

Out of curiosity though, would like to tackle it with photoshop and replace the rado lights and grille with the same style of round lights and debadged grille from the MK2 Golf behind it.. think that might improve things a little.. will try and remeber to have a go at that when I get home tonight!

[chrishill 0]

looks very unbalanced, I think the problem is that the lights/grille/slam panel are, by design, chunky and heavy looking and those mk2 bumpers don't compliment that at all. Be interesting to see what it'd look like after Jims photochop, but TBH round lights just dont suit the otherwise square and quite blocky lines of the car (oettinger twin headlights anyone?)

 

I think putting the bump-strips back on might improve things slightly but as has already been said its just different for the sake of it rather than enhancing the look of the original.

:? not sure on this one. it's not quite right.

[vwdeviant 0]

 

Any one know what those wheels are? Look like modern Porsche Gas Burners...

 

Jim if you remember to 'shop this can you do them with black low/ polished highlights? Like to see how they come out...

[Yandards 0]

Nope this is doing nothing for me, shame as it looks like excellent quality work.
