Rat look

I have recently bought a roughish looking corrado, and was considering ratting it.
Now would this be frowned upon by you guys or would it be embraced?
Just after some inspiration
Cheers guys Thumbs Up

Hmmm.......

If it's a bit rough anyway it would be much cheaper than turning it into a nice one, think it depends on the budget available for it.

Think rat look is done to death even if it is a bit rough. Just think Corrados will become a rare a collectable ride in the future. Corrado's are classier than Golfs etc so to rat would be to shat IMO

Good point ^^

Maybe just run it as is until budget allows.....

Agreed,

I hate the rat look on any car but I understand why people do it. If money is tight e.g students, then its a cheap way to get attention.

But a Corrado is one of my favorite dubs so ratting one will defiantly not work for me.

yeah dont rat the rado maybe a dodgy mk3 or old polo its not my cup of tea but each to their own it just seems to work better in the aircooled scene rather than the waterpumpers

I dont like rat look, but i'm quite liking matt paint. Had a gander at an 11 plate M3 outside work in Matt Gunmetal with black wheels.

matt paint is cool on the right motor like a big 4x4 touerags look mint in flat nato green

Only problem is I want to use it. But I think your right mate, have been thinking about modding it to the era it was new 90's wheels, exhaust etc....

you could do but that was the 90's lol id go standard with it mate it will only ever increase in value if you keep the miles low and you will get it in classic car insurance
