our latest development from p.d.m a nice sized front mounted intercooler.

:D

this is where it will be mounted ,headers being custom made to fit the corrado and mount to the bumper iorn...

also this enables the use of twin inlet on the charger! alot safer imho to get more air to the g-lader..

best thing is apart from opening up the no plate aperture the front of the car will look completly original :lol:

Why not just spray paint the grille white and paint in the letters in black...? :lol: I know it will come out looking a bit grey, but hey. Or you could put slats in like the main grille and put the numbers on the slats...

I think a system you can get for the MX5 is required.

Some people mount the number plates in the mouth of the MX5 (Mk1 I'm talking about here) but of course when going at speed the numberplate restricts airflow into the radiator..... soo.. put it on a hinge!

 

Past 45mph the numberplate folds up letting all air into the mouth - when you slow down, ooh, there it is :)

 

So on the C, how about just a bit lower than your pic shows it there - just below the bumper - and will fold up into the bumper too ;)

 

Active spoiler at rear - active numberplate at front :) Now how cool would it be to get them in sync...

[W3RKD 0]

yeah somthing like that andi :mad: didnot know that was available for the mx5 as is exactly what i was planning to do!

[VR6 0]

Foiled again eh Darren!

[Andi 2,147,483,647]

Hehe...

Well, its been available on the MX5 for about 7-8 years now....

But maybe you could patent the C version :D
