Jon_vr6 1 Posted January 13, 2012 [ATTACH=CONFIG]51075[/ATTACH] Fitting this tomorrow if the weather stays nice, Spoonfed rhd lower windscreen trim beats the faded look of the 3 piece one i have on at the minute Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jon_vr6 1 Posted January 14, 2012 All Done went ok really im the first RHD owner of this one piece trim so im basically the guinea pig but no problems to report so jobs a goodun. Oh and i also fitted a spoonfed tuning extended carbon fiber rear spoiler (purely for looks as the weight save is minimal) Let me know your thoughts Big thanks to James in the states top man Cheers Jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon green 5 Posted January 14, 2012 What wipers have you got fitted ? as there seems to be plenty of room for the wiper arm arc! One piece looks so much cleaner, Have you road tested the rear spoiler yet ? im sure you will notice it more in the up position in the rear view mirror Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jon_vr6 1 Posted January 14, 2012 Wiper blades are Mk4 golf ones mate, and the arms are tt ones. Have to agree the one piece does look so much cleaner, main reason i felt the need to change is that the old 3 piece ones were so discoloured i got sick of back to blacking them Cheers Chris Jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jon_vr6 1 Posted January 14, 2012 I used the Bosch 928S aerotwin wiper blades they are for a Mk4 golf 98-2002 and for Bora from 2002.. I think to fit them i put the drivers blade on passenger side and passenger on the drivers side. They work really well got told about them on here Elsecar ill be there mate have never missed it since owning the raddo great show, as for removing the rear wiper i still use it to this day and it will always stay :-) Jon ---------- Post added at 08:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:14 PM ---------- Looks good but what about the cams and all the other stuff :) x The cams are in as said on page 24 darling, as for other stuff i think ive only got the steering wheel left to put on then its time for some paint sometime soon X Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True but i wanted to be different :shades:, People spend 2K on BBS split wheels when theres nothing wrong with the standard solitude/speedlines why becasue they want to be different it cost to be different but the way i see it is lifes too short if you can afford it buy it end of Jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry but you don't understand the work that goes into producing high quality/low volume parts. The costs involved with making a rear wing or many of the other parts that we make is not cheap. That tooling cost needs to be recovered when selling the parts as well as the cost of the parts. With many of the parts we make the volume of parts sold is not that high. We've sold 25 of these rear wings. So its not possible to spread that tooling cost out like you could on mass produced parts. Trust me the margins on the parts we sell is not very high and nowhere near the industry standard. We are not out to make a fortune selling these parts and instead do this for the community of Corrado owners who want unique and high quality parts for their Corrado. Few companies make parts for these cars and one reason is because people don't support the volume of parts needed to make it profitable. We could just as easily focus our time and money on making parts for other cars that are much more profitable but we choose to do this for the love of Corrados. Thank you Jon for posting the pics of the parts and for your business. Looks great! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jon_vr6 1 Posted January 17, 2012 No worries James, hope everyone else is just as happy as i am with the one piece lower trim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abdul 0 Posted January 18, 2012 Looks awesome fella, I totalled up the bits I want from spoonfed for when I get another rado and it comes to something like $1300 lol. How much are customs charges these days? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
