Corrado "Wish List"

Recommended Posts

I thought id start a thread with the intention of getting everyone's good ideas down in one place that aren't particular to any one component or are a little different!

Mainly i think i just need inspiration! but id also like to share some cool ideas that im currently doing or have dreamt up. :grin:

 

so firstly

 

Im currently working on my alloys. I cant afford to buy new ones but I'm happy with the results at least.

Survey 173.jpg[/attachment:2qpg357f]

Ive resprayed them VAG "Reflex" sliver... its almost a pearl-ecent with little flecks running through it. Look ok, i plan on changing the crappy "Fox" badge that covers the wheel nuts with one that says G60! Again ill have to make them myself i think. But then i do have a A-level in art in design.... :dorky:

 

However Id love to get my hands on the 17's off the new Sirroco! :luvlove:

 

After my wheels im going to the super charger, with the obligatory porting and over hall with new induction kit. But again i cant afford the £500 for the charger so it looks like a Seal kit and a home job again!!

 

Redtop injectors

Full suspension pack

Brembo brake kit

Full leather interior, but not the storm :smug: I've found a company in Edinburgh who have a template for the interior of a corrado so they can make and fit replacement interiors !!! but the best part is i can get any design i wont!

Custom interior baby!!

 

 

But all that will put me back £3000, and i just don't have the money :cry:

Hence wish list..........

Sounds like a good list!

 

Full leather interior, but not the storm.......

 

Just in case there's any confusion, there's no such thing as 'Storm leather'. There is leather that you find in a Storm but it's no different to leather from any other late car. In fact the Storm didn't come with Recaros so you could argue that non-Storms might be better equipped (assuming you prefer the Recaros, which some don't!).

Yeah, i remember reading that in another thread about the "Truth" about the storm or something along those lines. I realise that the interior isn't storm specific but most associate the storm model with leather trim.

 

My proposed trim however would be effectively the existing seats with new upholstery. but the designs they do are AMAZING Ill find a link and post it. the company is genius! :grin:

just the designs look tremendous! i cant wait to get some spare cash together... im kinda weird in that im less performance driven than i am about looks :lol: im not to bothered about getting 240bhp out of the car so long as it looks ACE!

 

I was going to go for a Two tone interior, black with red trim and each front seat would get a G60 badge in the centre (getting matching floor mats as well from justmatz :grin: )
