Sounds like you have it all organised, how much money do you intend spending

Welcome to VASK.

The only thing I'd suggest is putting the front number plate in the middle of the bumper ;) ;D

Hey


Are you in Avonhead by any chance? I'm sure I've seen this car around. Looks great, classic euro styles. I think keep it simple while your still at school. When you start working , then you can get the big bumpers and weitec Ultra GT 40mm shock and dampers from the UK and leave it at that. 

My corrado 16V is parked up at mum's at the mo, look forward to coming back from UK next year and fitting my hoard of parts I have stocked up here, mainly replacement interior bits as well as 40mm Weitec kit and bushes. Planning a respray as well. Also thinking of getting Corrado G60 280mm brakes but unsure on the Low volume cert rules. So who knows maybe you can buy my 256mm front setup.

It gives it a nice sound. not really loving the look though. if i could get a euro look one with the twin pipes aimed up id be happy. I LOVE THOSE EXHAUSTS!!!!
