Thanks again, and I look forward to letting you have a spin in mine once it's done. :salute: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tedman 0 Posted December 16, 2009 Well the team dynamics got sold and the turbo/motor sport plans i had have gone out the window :( i need to spend the money getting the car back to the condition it was in when i got it [and improve on it]first. also the tyres were getting low so i convinced myself some 17's were in order before i got all sensible :D a big thanks to gareth [OSV] :salute: for the bbs rx they look brilliant on a corrado. I only have these pics as my jack gave up after putting one wheel on! will get some better pics up asap Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted December 16, 2009 that looks amazing. i struggle to pick my favourite colour corrado as they are all so nice Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marshole82 0 Posted December 16, 2009 just read this through from the start - liking the colour, liking your new 17s too. not a fan of 17s on a rado, and didn't like the tt comps but the new ones look great. hope you get the car back to it's best, that's what i'm aiming for too...not easy :epicfail: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
