Hi everyone, I'm Ross and this is my first VW Polo

Model: MK7 Polo

Engine: 1.2E 60ps

Suspension: AP Coilovers

Brakes: Standard

Wheels and Tyres: Dotz Mugello's 16" Yokahama S-Drive tyres

Exterior Styling: Standards....debadged Polo

Interior Styling: Manual to electric window conversion

ICE and Security: Standard headunit, 12" FLI sub-box

So this is the work i have done so far.............

So this is it standard

First thing i did to the car was get wheels, i would have loved bbs rims but as a student i was limited...soo

I quite like the look of the 16's on the car but i could have joined the circus at that hieght lol

So my main priority was to get some springs....or coils :p

so this is what i ended up with

still need to take some half decent pics...just not had the chance yet but i will get some up soon

cheers sarah, did you slit your lights to paint them?

Ross

*split

Nah i just took the headlight protectors off and painted them instead of the lights. They look good but at the end of they day they aren't the real GTi lights.

Nice work soo far bud :-D

looking good dude!

get your self on scottishvag.com

was out tonight, so i took some phone pics :p thought the lighting was good

Its going in on saturday to bring it down a bit

give me some ideas of what to do. I now have a black badge on the rear, and the gti grill is ordeded and i will be painting the red bit white.

Does anybody know if there are holes running under the bumpstrips on the side panels?

Yes theres holes running under the side bumpstrips

this is how it is currently sitting, any ideas on what i could do to it thats not too pricey?

I'm up for any suggestions...
