I'm new around here and thought i would do a little project thread so i can see the various stages of my polo being transformed. I bought my polo with 47k on the clock and had some small things in mind i wanted to do to make it look how i want it. Heres how it was the day i got it

This is my original plan list:

Remove the side bump strips

debadge the boot

touch up the small patch of rust on the rear left arch

then hopefully going to get some:

g60 steels

coilovers

16v bumpers

6n2 rear lights

de wiper

debadged grill

Then a few week later finally got my first steps done

New grill

removed bump strips

and finally debaged and blacked out my badge

I then stumbled across some 6n2 lights on ebay for £40 posted so snapped them up

and thats how it stands today, still need to try get the marks off where the badges were, anyone know of any good paint restorer? :p hopfully some more updates will be coming soon :)

g3 paint restorer is shit hot stuff

cheers man, ill have a look

Havnt posted on here in a while so thought I would give people a little update for those who care? I bought some g3 compound and some g10 compound and neither of them worked so I have come to the conclusion that my boot must have been resprayed along with my whole rhs :( my only hope is that when I get my bumpers sprayed up I can kindly ask the body shop to blend the back one in abit generously :p g3 is awesome stuff though, slowing getting rid of my orange peel

Little update, went and bought some 16v bumpers today which unknowing to me came with fogs which was a bonus and also got some ronal ls's on the way

look what the post man brought me today

look nice and clean

last pic gives me shivers :S

justs looks so nice ol and its the inside

Those should look nice.

Coilovers first?

Hopefully coilies, 20mm spacers and 16v bumpers all at the same time, but it's gonna be a while :(

Finally an update :p insurance has finally renewed and can now start properly getting on it,

Firstly I put a set of Mk3 golf Recaro's in

and am now fitting coilovers, but only had time to do rears :p

think its about 100mm drop but forgot to measure :/ tyres arnt scrubbing which is nice but i think something is knocking the exhaust

I think it's cause my drive is on a slant but i need to adjust them up abit tomorrow any way cause I don't think the ronals will sit under. Try get the front down tomorrow aswell

"Copy"? Its putting wheels on a car not sitting an exam. I'm sure hundreds of people might have them on this car... You put them on for personal preference mate.

spot on!

What ronals are they?
