The De Chavving Begins

Featured Replies

If its going the grey colour you have shown in the photoshop on p-shots I think it will look pretty sweet, saw this a couple of times parked in the car park at morrisons on the weekend of edition38. looked good from far but far from good in my oppinion. paintwork was well fucked.

would be good to see some more updates though!

Sounds like a hot project there.....but IMO a roof chop wont fit in with the style it sounds like you're trying to achieve. But its your car and looks good so far :thumbsup:

Looking at that edition thread....fair play for gettin the wheels under the arches :thumbsup:

haha you said it then Ben :lol::lol:

but they no longer look like arches.... i have something similar in my room... a shelf!

Il agree with you there....didnt say they looked good, just that the wheels were covered :lol:

Only thing is that hes page 126-127 is missing were is says why great big wide wheels dont look good on a polo

Dimensions of a std 6n

1655 mm

Dimensions of his polo *Same as a Vw Phaeton*

5055 mm

Quite like it now the wheels fit tbh.

Just out of curiosity where have the Admin gone to not be able to move this into the Photo & Video section where other Progress Threads reside.

Back on topic, great progress going there. Keep up the good work.

Fuck the negative comments I'm liking what you are doing here and understand where you were coming from with it looking chavvy before. I personally can't wait to see the arches finished, and as mentioned maybe some lower tyres on the rear.
