hi sanky mine is an AH for the VR (95) & IIRC the valver is also an AH (which is a 1990) it always amuses me when i see it as those are my initials :)

thanks sean, good to know the lenses are ok. i will keep an eye out for your confirmation on the tabs once you have checked :)

looking nice leopan! how did you get on removing the old stuff & glue?

no probs m8, hope she is ok. thanks for the response. i would appreciate some pics :) what is their condition like? IE any broken tabs etc or cracks or chips? & just to confirm they are late model spec? thanks

no problem carlos - best thing to do is put a new thread in the breaking section (as essentially it sounds like thats what your doing) & then list all the parts you currently have, with pictures if possible, & prices for each. you can then add/remove to it as required :) plus as billcor mentioned it is probably best to state your in Cali & advise regarding shipping locations & costs hope that helps m8 PS we are a nice lot & very welcoming on here really, just a little over protective when it comes to the sale of items due to past experiences ;)

thanks sean. i will inspect the centers i have & judge if i would be better getting new complete ones or just the vinyls that are on them much appreciated

Thanks Goldie, i had considered that option. i do have the centre caps themselves but the VW logos on them at present have that white worm infection & cracked the wheels themselves are 16"

i have found these but £20 sounds rather steep for some stickers :( https://www.demongraphics.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=62&products_id=1915&zenid=24abdd709ab86e06e04bc54408723de5

anyone? pretty please with a cherry ;)

Could i have a description, pictures & price for the headlights pls?

Will do, thanks Andy :)

Well AndyR32 you werent wrong........95 euro shipping cost for the A pillar panels....holy cow!!! fabrication is the way forward methinks

Hmmm i do need to source some new stickers for the wheel centres i have - does anyone know a good place for BBS or VW ones?

& no offence but with only 1 post, which is the above & lacking in any real detal, it doesnt enthuse much confidence

not much going on with the VR but lots done on the valver this weekend - new shoes & grill :) full update & lots of pics on page 5.... http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?t=44751&page=5&p=1047356&posted=1#post1047356

after many many hours of rubbing & polishing i also managed to finally finish the 4th BBS split & then got all 4 balanced up & fitted :D they look so much better than the wolf race 17's which were on it......& will now be up for sale, along with the spacers & long wheel bolts i removed, should anyone be interested (i will put an add up once had time to clean them & take pics) though im not entirely sure if i will need any spacer shims as the clearance between the top of the tyre & the bottom of the suspension cup is very minimal, though i believe that should remain static so think they are ok as there didnt seem to be any rubbing (im not very good at working out wheel sizes & offsets but several good people on here said they would fit ok) however, comparing to my VR they look ok & the outside edge of the rear wheels seem to almost be in line with the inner edge of the arch lip finally, i cant recall who on here put me onto the ebay page for wheel bolts but they worked a treat the price with locking nuts was superb - so thank you :)

lots achieved on the weekend despite the rain & wind (spray painting outside is definitely not fun or clever) i managed to get my replacement grill refurb'd. im happy to now have the correct early 7 slat grill in place & not looking too shabby considering all i used was halfords plastic primer & cheap matt paint. apologies for the foliage, i forgot to take the pic before i moved it forward to park again

ouch!! :(

scum bags :( if only they were seen in the act......& then beaten accordingly!!

welcome! wow that truly has covered some distance :)

yup it definitely was lol

no m8 it wasnt me - i have a blackberry VR & a white 1.8 16v & the gf has a storm but the valver is having new shoes on the weekend & then going for its MOT i just wondered as you sounded in the close area, which your not too far away, as i try to go to local classic car meets & always keen to try & get more of a rado presence :)

thats a great idea Jim - anna at heritage is keen to increase their range

mmm choc orange, nice Kev :) all good points m8 - i guess my reason for rant posting was more about the fact that 'they' (whoever they may be) are so quick to jack prices up when oil barrel prices increased but then show very little sign or willing to reduce them back down as fairly & was definitely a rant rather than a wrinkle causing worry ;) i like to regularly stop in life, take a look around & enjoy the best parts of it as most of the time, blink & you will miss it

cracking sanky thanks!
