24V Renshaw 0 Posted April 18, 2004 Well its getting there..... :) The next stage of the transformation for 2004 is complete. TT dash is now basically finished. New leather interior is in, including Porsche 993 Turbo front seats. Outside the 8.5x17" Porsche Turbo splits are on (test fit) and the rear bumper is flushed and FK rear lights are on. One off custom front grill is on and later spec headlights are fitted. Only three weeks to go to inters............still some to do. Any thoughts or comments?? Cheers Jay.

24V Renshaw 0 Posted April 18, 2004 Cheers. Still some work to do, to get it all done for inters, but I thought I would give the Forum a sneeky peak! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
niels 0 Posted April 18, 2004 wow nice one. How do the splits fit? what et and adapters are you using? I'd say the back will be no prob but the front may need a gentle application of the baseball bat as the yanks would say. Cheers, niko Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Valver 0 Posted April 18, 2004 Jay> Absolutely stunning.....love those rims, and that interior...wow!!! Good work fella! :mrgreen: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted April 18, 2004 Cheers for the nice comments. The wheels are 8.5x17 all round and have custom offsets and adaptors (that I had made to my design) as the outer rims are new to create the correct width etc.. Bit of a complicated one but they are on there! :) J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shilakadaddy 0 Posted April 18, 2004 Stunning. First time I've seen a picture of the seats installed, they look awesome, perfect ride hight, rear looks fantastic.. all in all a very good job! Nice! :mrgreen: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bojmobile 0 Posted April 18, 2004 :shock: that is looking amazing man. Great colour, great wheels and amazing interior. Love the grill too - that's gotta be one the nicest modded Corrado's I've seen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

24V Renshaw 0 Posted April 18, 2004 Nope sit just right behind the porker rims, tucked nicely in the spokes. Close but nice! :) I must admit it was one of my concerns as obviously until you get them on everything is just measurement and theory, but they clear them nicely. Look very Porsche with the Red Brembos sitting behind the rim. J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its not fitted perfectly yet but its almost there. If your coming to inters it will be in the Show and Shine on the Saturday and the CCGB stand on the Sunday.

Bojmobile 0 Posted April 18, 2004 What interior do you have in the back seats? Is it a black leather Corrado interior like the doorcards? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted April 18, 2004 Yeah the whole lot is a black Corrado leather apart from the Porsche front seats. The door cards are black leather Corrado ones, modified to fit round the TT dash as it is slightly wider than the Corrado dash. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
