Hi I'm 17 and still learning, test next week though :-D

Got my polo at the end of Feb this year and Iv'e been loving it ever since. I haven't done a great deal to it yet but I'm getting there slowly.

Model: VW Polo 1.0 1998.

Engine: Standard with Ripspeed Induction Kit.

Suspension: Raceland Coilovers

Brakes: Standard.

Wheels and Tyres: 15" Lenso RS5's in silver with 195/45 Runway tyres.

Exterior Styling: Dice dust caps, Vibe Sticker, think that's it so far lol.

Interior Styling: Black fury dice, 6n2 gear knob, Black ice air freshener :p

ICE and Security: Vibe BlackAir 12" V3 1600W max subwoofer with Vibe BlackBox Stereo-2 amplifier in the boot. Then 2 Vibe BlackAir69 6"x9" speakers in the parcel shelf, and 2 Alpine SXE-1725S 16.5cm Speakers in the front doors.

Now for the pictures!

So that's about it for now, got a few plans for it though.

Debadged Grill

10cm pioneer speakers for the dash

Get some new red trim mats

Clear indicators

Clear side indicators

Euro plates

Back box exhaust maybe

Would like to take the trims of the sides

16v Bumpers would be nice :-)

New handbrake

Also would love a pool ball gear knob, can't find them for 6n's anywhere, anyone know where I can get one?

So lemme know what you think!

Rich :-D

Finally lowered the beast!

Sitting at 80mm all round I think but the back seems lower so I might have to raise it or lower the front some more, rubs on full lock :S

:D

looking nice! I had these rims on my 16v for a while and they never rubbed on lock.

Oh right, how low were you dropped?

Looks good! at least it's low now mate! :-)

Definitely need to lower the front, it always looks better having the car sitting level or slightly lower at the front.

A bit of rake would look sweet!

What size and width are your wheels mate?

Cant remember exactly. but it was quite a way down on coilovers..

  • Author

Yeah its sitting lower at the back which I dont really like, ill sort it out soon.

And their 15", i think they are 6.5 or maybe 7j I'm not sure :S And I'm running 195/45's

looks really clean mate

Reverse rake makes the baby jesus cry! :crybaby: But other than that, v. nice , love the wheels :D
