Hey guys and girls...not posted at all really in the past 4-5 months but have been browsing as i was looking for another polo recently.

Kept searching and in the end came across this and bought it straight away!!!

Lowered on some Lenso 17's

Recent new black electric hood

Full heated leather

Here's the pics

After a quick polish

Interior

Compulsary sticker :]

Beginning to feel like all of my other cars!!

So far all i have done is blacked the rear badge and the handbrake handle/cover as previously it had a cream interior so i am slowly going to get the rest black...fitted those super bright lights and ordered some flat wiper blades...oh and that little bear!!

Plans are to get gti arches on there...replace vr6 splitter that broke off and tidy it up in general....wheels need a refurb and will get a badged front grill and maybe tint the windows lightly and tint the front indicators/lights etc.

Hope you like

Bit of an update...

Refurbed the wheels..

Turned this.....

Into this.....

And now have a matt bonnet...black badged grill and bumper ducts..

:-D

Now slam it to the ground!

Coilies february time :)

Coils and anything non lenso for rims and will look sweet lol

tidy car, but i think the next thing on my list would be to fix that rusty arch rather than just covering it up with a plastic trim

Sure you just didnt cover it up did you? I thought you meant to fixed it?

well if it has just been covered up, it'll be a right pita to fix when the inner wing detaches itself from the outer.

Lol...yeah i sanded the rusted area down and treated it before i put the trims on!!!!

think it was some hammerite stuff i got from halfrauds...

And yes i have 2 ideas for wheels next year....the lenso's will stay for the winter though, thanks for the comments

thats good, as they really are a pain to fix.

personally i dont find those lensos that offensive, kinda suite the chunky look of the car

If i get time i may spray the wheels satin black before the end of the year...hopefully a respray summertime next year so dents in arch will be sorted properly...like i said i just rubbed it down...got the crap off and then sprayed the area to prevent anymore coming through.

Satin black wheels...some days i love them...some days i hate them...what do you reckon???

Also these will be murdered and 'capped' over the weekend!!!

Jay

are those leathers orignal? as i have the same in my mk3 polo and was told they was out a carrado lol

No these were out of a mk3.5 cab....lovely seats!!!

Finished making the playmobile caps and got bored with the patchy matt bonnet so sprayed a skull and crossbones on lol

Those dust caps are brilliant. :)

a better picture of the bonnet is needed.

Also painted the insides of the lamps black!

New mirrors y'allllllll

Wow havn't updated this in a while!!!

Just won some fk coilovers so they shoud be on the car next weekend....

Also now sporting smoothed lower vents, vr6 splitter,yellow indicators and my mirrors are on...here's a few pics

wider out back i reckon

wider out back i reckon

Once coilies are fitted then we'll see what spacers i need.

beautiful

Well it's been a while so I figured i'd put up some progressive shots etc.

That was winter time, moving onto spring i got a VR6 splitter

On my way back from Springfest

Next up were some FK coilovers, unfortunately 3 were seized when i got them but this is how it sat for the time being

Summer approached and i got some pressed plates and fitted a black carpet and trim panels to get rid of the nasty beige that was in there

Next up i started to smooth a new front and rear bumper kindly given to me for free!

Then it was time to roll the arches and get out a big hammer and get them coilies free!!

And this is how she sits now with a vento front end also

Damn lower cab sills...lol

Sooooooo after getting a confirmation call at a monthly meet a few weeks ago that my bumpers had been second lacquered I eagerly headed over to the workshop to polish them up......

Rather happy with the result...and more so to be polishing something that goes on MY car!!!!

Bumper Chair???

Look a bus!!!!

And an Escort Van!!!

Next up .....

I finished polishing my rear bumper....aside this I had to use glue,cable ties and a few self tappers to repair and then re-fit my VR6 splitter....it decided to pull itself off over a bump and I kinda drove over it...mehhhh :p

Pics:

Lol

Rubbish Spoiler

306

Yay that Escort Van again!

I'd just like to point out that all work is being done on mates driveways and in my other workmates garage that we do wheel refurbs in etc...this car has been such a learning curve in so many levels it's unreal yet at the same time doing all the prep and being able to polish aircraft VIP interior parts has definately helped!!!

Thanks for reading....Car should be painted by October with any luck!!

Bumpers look mint and it's looks great slammed :-)
