hi you thats a sweet lookin colour

coilovers :shock: get low and have hub cap fun :lol:

Its on 13's at the mo :-( So what do you reckon would be a good height to drop it by?

spray your badge black and debadge the rear, i know its common but its cheap and looks good.

it is a sweet colour btw, iv seen a few 6ns that colour but thats the first 6n2 iv seen in that green.

I have considered the black VW badge instead, I have taken off the polo badge it looks much better.

Thanks I'm thinking putting it on 15's at 195/45 low profiles and possibly some borbets? Though i did find some awesome bk wheels recently what you think?

coilovers are adjustable height so it can be moved up and down to suit the wheels , and coilovers are only about £200 , and a good height on the 13`s would be about 100 mm :-D or as my mate did to his just wind them all the way down :lol::lol:

rims look 8-)

You may have a scrubbing issues with 15s, unless you stiffen the suspension.

I like those rims. If you like em, I say get them. Don't follow the crowd and be a scene sheep!

Are they easy to fit? And also what do you think to them Bk wheels?

Cheers I had been looking at deep dish etc, but yeah different can be good!!

yeah pal the rims are 8-) different, but thats what you need, some thing not the norm, i think they will work well with colour of the little beast . coilovers are fairly easy to fit , if you know what way round to hold a spanner should be able to do them in 3 hours tops :lol:

feist off nice car i like this colour

second get its slammed it will look a hole lot better if its low

and what motor has it got ??

6N2's are a much better looking car than a 6N in my opinion .

Slam it then start colour codign some bits and pieces ..

I would remove/ cc bump strips and bumper inserts + roof inserts ect :-D

Welcome to CP by the way :D

Thanks to everyone who's posted a reply, its defo going to help me make my polo look sweet once i've finished modding it! :-D

If you go down the 15" wheel route and want to lower it, its going to limit the amount of drop you can have (think its 40mm iirc?)

Coilovers are pretty much adjustable tho so you should be able to get the perfect amount of drop without the wheels catching/scrubbing on full lock.

Yeah them rims look smart...... I reckon window tints will look pretty smart and set it off nicely ;)

nice car mate, my mrs has a 6n in that colour. if its any help i have 15's and down about 70-80mm with no scrubbing so get 15's on it :D

Coilovers or springs? I don't want to drop it too much maybe 30-35mm at the most. Theres alot of speed bumps were I live lol!

I've got a 6n2 on 15s and coilovers, sitting at about 50-60mm down and dont get any scrubbing and speed bumps are fine

in fact the cars on a slight tilt so the gap looks abit bigger than usual, id say get coilovers as there not that much and if u ever change you are mind on wheels u can just adjust
