Never put any pics up so here it goes, this is when i first bought it!

Since i bought it, not done much to be honest!

Just been trying to keep the car clean really giving it a home detail

Decided to spray my front badge black and remove the engine sound deadning!

Removed polo from the rear

Also just started my front delocked handles!

Standard items!

Bit of smoothing!

More movement soon

Well i'm still not to sure yet, gonna fit my handles, stubby areial (i wonder if L2OONY K is still selling them), coilovers and wheels (Ryan knows which ones i want for know), oh and maybe some engine mods!

After that i'm not to sure, i had the idea of smoothing the bumpers but everyones doing that so i think i'll give that one a miss!

A new set of plates would be a good move man, them ones are a bit manky.

Nice car!

Are the stubby aerials easy enough to get a hold of? And what is the reception like?

Shiney tyres!

Certainly will be changed, some pressed plates i think!

I'm not sure how easy they are to get hold of, but from what i can remember the receptio was just as good as that of the standard aerial!

Nice work mate. What's it like without the sound muffling under the bonnet??

I want to take off the 'POLO' badge on mine, but I want to whack a shiny new GTI badge below the VW one.

TBH you can hear a bit more engine noise but only ever so slightly

I just thought i made the engine bay look a whole lot cleaner!

Really liking this mate!

I was going to smooth my bumpers, but like you said, everyones doing it!

I've took my front plate off though and put it in the window for the time being, really makes a difference to the front end, and its free.

People always ask me when i got my bumper smoothed too! :p

Finally managed to fit my handles eariler, went on easier than the haynes manual had said, both were fitted in about ten mins! Really pleased with the paint match and the look of them

big curb eh? ^^

Ouch!

No curb just a slight slope into my drive
