They're not depo lol

The borbets could look sweet painted the same colour as that mk4's rota grids? Looks mean as you like then!

looks crap!!!! fucking hate those lights! indicators look odd next to them, the grille doesnt look right in my opinion either, cable tying the number plate on looks cheap and tbh the stubby mirrors still look wrong to me..... sorry dude but the exterior doesnt match the interior or engine

They're not depo lol

well fuck me what are they then lol >.<

Mirror is folded in on that pic haha

They're hofele's Dean mate

Ah i have seen them before on a polo but you need the right front end to make it look really good i did see someone on here with them ages ago. Think you using that other grille might pull it of :p

The ABT Grille is key, just need to get myself a badge for it, lol

id probably offer you at least £2000 for this if it came up for sale? :)

joking aside mate, love how your constantly doing things and doing everything, a real effort, this is the kind of thing i wanna do when I'm a bit older with a spare car and a garage etc, real unique project car! not just an engine conversion and some wheels and lows, doing everything!

keep it up

Well now I've got no ball and chain to spend the coin on, this is second in line after food and water haha!

Thanks for the encouragement, I just try my best to get stuff done myself, helps that I've got friends and family who constantly provide support, ideas and inspiration... Not to mention the countless hours of help and advice I've had from all over!

No need to be bitter just because I predicted that yours would fail, why don't we have a little show down at GTi international next year? My 20vt vs your supercharged valver...?

I must have shit taste because I really like the way you're going with this Panda. :thumbsup:

Dark, sinister-looking, 90's street racer works so much better on this car than the mess that is the correct "scene" look ever would.

that would be a must see deffo be there if it happens. just thought id add i love this car. keep the good work up

I like this because its different to any other...isnt slammed on 14's with 16v bumpers etc...hes doing it up to suit HIM, ok you can say it looks shit, in your opinion, other may differ, including his own...like he said, no need to be bitter, could be a bit more polite about it, he might think your car looks gash you never know lol.

Yeti is right with this one, it's a 90's car, so

I'm styling it the way I think a 90's car should look. The front end isn't finished, it still needs the ABT grille and possibly some subtle vents ;)

looks wicked man. i must have shit taste too

Bit of buffing on a centre nut (literally 5 mins)

Ordered some bits and pieces for them already, a set of obsolete BBS caps for more rareness, bolts are original BBS stainless, I want to keep these so they'll be getting reconditioned.

Plan to have them split by tonight and off to the chromers ASAP.
