chrishill 0 Posted September 18, 2004 looking WELL smart mate, I'd definatly get some clear side repeaters though, IIRC £15 from halfarts and for something so small they make quite a differance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted September 18, 2004 Cheers guys :) Thinking about maybe smoked repeaters actually as I kinda like that on a dark coloured Corrado.. then eventually maybe some smoked FK's on the rear. But I really should get the mechanical and rusty bits sorted before any more flashy bits to be honest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VR6 0 Posted September 19, 2004 Top marks Jim - lovely. Glad you finally got your hands on the alloys you wanted :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted September 19, 2004 Me too :) Thanks mate. Just sold my BBS's to Chris (Renegade) and his dad - talk about fast turn around?! New wheels Saturday, old ones sold on Sunday! Again - I think these will really not be to the taste of the Euro style Corrado fans (9x16 phattie Borbets ahoy!!) but for a more OE kinda look I think these are good - BBS Solitude style almost :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CazzaVR 0 Posted September 19, 2004 Car looks stunning matey! :D Fantastic wheels! 8) Smoked repeaters and smoked tail lights would finish the car off nicely 8) You could do the rears yourself for £15 ish... if I can do it, anyone can! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted September 20, 2004 Looking sweet on the new rims Jim... *cough* lupo wipers :wink: Whats next on the mod list? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted September 20, 2004 Fixing my broken stereo gear mate. I'm not bothered about having a show winning sound system but since my subwoofer stopped working AND 1 of my 6x9's (some kind of hex on my sound system I think!) things are sounding decidedly ropey so I wanna get em sorted out. Mods wise there isn't a lot more I want to change to be honest. Just tidy stuff up.. I just like a clean, unfussy looking Corrado.. so maybe getting the 6x9's stealthed out of the way, *possibly* removing the rear wiper, lupo wipers, and general bodywork tidying. Oh and I can't stop pondering the idea of the Seat Brembo conversion as those big fat red Brembo calipers look great nestled behind the front wheels :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RobyD 0 Posted September 20, 2004 Very nice Jim :) Weren't too keen on them before you got them but now there on your car think they look great. Subtle and nice without being too bling 8) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted September 20, 2004 One thing I did notice Rob.. they seem to share the same traits that you disliked about your BBS RX's - look great from the side but seem narrow from the rear and sit into the arches a bit too much. But yeah - still chuffed with em :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valver 0 Posted September 20, 2004 Look good Jim....and even better on the move as I saw your car on the A45 near the Jag showroom on Saturday afternoon. :wink: :mrgreen: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RobyD 0 Posted September 20, 2004 I actually bought some spacers the other day to solve that little problem bought some 'universal' ones from ECP. Put them on then took em off again! Didn't trust them at all - had huge holes to fit numerous vehicles, stuck out around the edges of the hub and didn't have many turns of the thread left :roll: I thought i'll just leave it the way it is until i can afford decent spacers/bolts Mine are BBS RZs btw :wink: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted September 20, 2004 Look good Jim....and even better on the move as I saw your car on the A45 near the Jag showroom on Saturday afternoon. :wink: :mrgreen: Was on my way to / from Sainsburys to get lunch :D Were you in your Golf mate? I normally look out around that area as I know its your neck of the woods.. hehe. Oh - and I meant RZ's Rob.. :oops: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
