looking good mate, you have been busy

I'm not sure if the colour of the wheels will suit but i could be wrong quality of the refurb looks excellent!

nice rado, and u have headlight washers! rare on a corrado, lucky bugger!

have to agree with u there mate, people either hate or love them! glad to see another person who loves them

looking good mate, you have been busy

I'm not sure if the colour of the wheels will suit but i could be wrong quality of the refurb looks excellent!

cheers buddy muchly appriciated :)

well i compaired them to the roof as the roof has jsut been machined polished and looks like its gonna be cool as fook tbh

wooooah! awesome wheels, how much were they if you dont mind me asking? I've been quoted £150 for 4 mims in rs4 blue.....

I'm a 10er cheaper to get all 4 done ben! still to get 2 done which i will hopefully get done next week if i get them tomoz! also going to get the gti engineering rocker cover done the same colour me thinks!

cheers,

Andy

not a fan of the cream but otherwise wikid

i have another wee update for today! guess what came in the post the audi centres!!! they finish off the wheels amazingly :rock: :

first pic of a wheel tryed on... now remember it will look alot better once dave finishes polishing her so it will all match and look awsome:

i think they look even better now with the Audi centres

there has to be some better thoughts now the wheels are finished?

higgo, ah well everyone to there own bud... i like them

cheers,

Andy

yeah i understand each to there own, do look slightly better with the new audi centres tbf but i reckon red or black would have worked betta

Looks good mate. U running no boxes or cats on your exhaust mate? Whats it like to drive now, I'm assuming you've lost a bit of torque having done that?

yeah man its a high flow system, which will be good for the gti engineering head! no cat as its a mk1 rado! no silcencers!

its still fast as fook... torque is pretty good! but once the head is on it will be even better as I'm gonna get 268 fast road cams for it :)

how ever, i got the car with the system so i have no idea if its lsot torque...

Andy

Piiiiiiiiiiiiimp :).

Andy

haha its all one mate like I've said before people can have there opinions but the only one that really matters to me is mine as i love them

sex weeee

i understand that and fair enuf, i just feel, wrong colour, too small, huge daft tyres and no stance at all with them, not wide enuf or not the correct size to tuck if thats what you are after, just glad u like them, and so whats the plans with the head??

will it make much difference?

Very nice!

not feeling the wheels tbh mate.
