Still got passenger side wing?

It does mate. No witnesses as yet. There is a school up the road that has a catering lorry that struggles in and out of that turning most days though, that's my bet. It's a school for rich and famous peoples daughters, so I'll be on to the headmistress first thing.

Got home from work today to find... :(

I'm sure I have one sat in the garage. I'll take a look next time im round there.

They are growing on me actually. I used to have them on a mk2 and wasn't that keen, like you say though they do suit the Corrado well. I might be tempted to space them out a little though as the front do get lost in the arches. Apparently the gf has other plans for the weekend... :scratch:

A few pics, just for the sake of it... Not really achieved much with it, sorted the horrendous reverse rake it came with. I ended up raising the rear of the car by nearly 2 inches - it's not so noticeable in the first pics I put up but the back was silly low - and dropping the front down a little to balance it out. Handles and looks much better now. Also, have bypassed the heater matrix as I started tidying up wiring behind the dash which has halted my matrix replacement. This will be completed over the bank holiday weekend however along with a few new sensors and new thermostat.

Just checked the paint code and you're correct Clumpy. I'm officially a member of the DBP club. Taking a little break from the heater matrix, it was all going very well (the dash is nothing compared to later model Golfs I have done in the past) until I came to undoing the nuts inside the engine bay and they are going nowhere fast. I am therefore going to have a cup of tea or two and let the WD40 do it's thing... I have noticed that the sound deadening above the matrix is also very damp on mine... Has anyone else spotted this? ---------- Post added at 4:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 4:26 PM ---------- Cheers mate. Good luck, it really is a lovely job... :bonk:

Just read through this, looking lovely mate. :thumbleft:

I know what you mean, I've got a mk1 golf GTI to channel all of those thoughts on though. For the time being I'd just be happy with a dry interior. Loving the colour, at times it almost looks black but when the sun hits it the purple really stands out.

Cheers Clumpy. I've not checked the paint code as yet but I think it is. Just about to leave the house to go do the heater matrix now. :bonk:

Hello all, new around here but thought I'd post up some pics of yesterdays new arrival. As I found her... After a lazy, rainy, jet wash rinse... No big plans yet, sort the 1990's reverse rake the previous owner has given her. Also needs a new heater matrix, have a new one here may fit it tomorrow.
