update

old lip 90mm

new one has already hole but need a bit of trimming.

new in front spoonfedtuning lip 70mm in comparison of the old one.

ground clearance, car is on a climbing slope so it's normally even lower.

new lip mounted

thanks to raf for texture painting the lip ;)

Update: other steering wheel.

from this

to

to become this as finished product

Update: new package arrived from the us

as usual big thumbs up for packaging to James

if you might wonder on why such a big box for so small parts=> easy, in this box were 2sets of mirriors, 2 grill, 2 lower windshields, 2 raintrays, a 70 mm lip and a spoiler. all this in one box and no damage what so ever ;)

mirrors (will be installed during the coming week)

carbon eurotub

Grill (will be installed later)

cf eurotub installed

doesn't it look great with the CF wing????

Did the Lupo steering wheel fit bolt on??

[sbatens 0]

yup a direct fit, even the horn works, easiest mod ever (apart of dismantling the steering wheel though)

Lovely stuff these guys make, must be like being a kid at christmas opening that box!

[sbatens 0]

true but it's always nice you know before you opened it everything is top quality. everybody who is interested in parts, I'll be @ ED38, so feel free to speak to me/come look at the car.

A very nice Corrado you have there, and I'm liking the rear carbon lights. Can you tell me more about them, quite fancy some myself

[sbatens 0]

sure, they are original lights, sanded smooth, painted cherry red like the mk5 R32, and over the plastic there has been a carbon overlay + clear coat to smooth out the carbon to the lights. carbon works is done by platinum ice paul in the uk, not cheap but very good work. PS i'm working on another special detail for the taillights, will be revealed soon.

lovely example - just out of interest, where did you get the replacement mirror glass from? I could do with 2 new ones as they have gone a bit funny and need to lube up the mirror mechanisms as they are LOUD :)

DDI do tinted wide-angle ones: http://www.dubdesignindustries.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=258&osCsid=26fe58e35a236f1bdfbd8d6e8d2a6146

hey, mirrors are from spoonfedtuning, they are not-tinded reproduction in a quality that wouldn't loose any reflection like the originals. part is without heating element nor mounting. it's just the glass, for sale for £57 + import fee + shipping
