Not, bad. Needs a massive drop!!

Lose the stickers and toe eye, strap :), and I've never liked the front lights,

Go potential :)

not feeling the exhaust cutout tbh

:( i want to lower it but insurance :L what next?? need help :L

De-bumpstrip? Also hate to say it but agree, not too sure about the front headlights and exhaust cutout, maybe if you smoothed out the cutout so it was one single cutout instead of having 2 cutouts if you see what I mean?

:( i want to lower it but insurance :L what next?? need help :L

it cost me £20 to declare it lowered,

Who with?

What age are you?

Any no claims?

How low?

I had no idea it could be that cheap!

Edit: Quick check on GoCompare says it would cost me £64 for suspension changes with Elephant, my current insurers. Think I would be able to contact them asking how much extra it would cost without them trying to increase my price?

Not sold on those headlights but it looks great otherwise and the cutout for the exhaust looks good at least you have got the "I took a hacksaw to the bumper look"

get rid of the mudflaps remove the stickers on the rear they look abit gash and get a 6n2 gti front splitter

remove the stickers on the rear they look abit gash

the irony.

Please lose the leds in the grills!!!

Edited 29 August, 201115 yr by Jonnyboi

nah i like the leds, and I'm trying to get hold of 6n2 splitter or a ibiza gti splitter one of the two, lowering and fitting my speaker system in is a first

Properly ruined it in my eyes but each to their own!

In my eyes its always less is more with 6n.My wifes 6n is cleaned and sits on g60 steelies with 195/45 tyres and h&r coilies.

Looks cool and didnt cost much,

coilies and g60 steels = £400

For inspiration

have alook at other 6n's on here,And please stop looking at the 6n's on the barry boys forum

I'm sorry but he has tried his best doing the things he wants with his car it may not be nice to you lot but who cares i personally prefer this to all the slammed on deep dish wheels with everything smoothed look that all the other 6ns seem to have on here and i think that rear bumper cut out is nice work bud it tidys up the rear instead of making it look like a huge hole with an exhaust stuck in it the leds are a good touch in that grill area they look stock i would however take the tow straps off and you may want to remove the mud flaps before the concrete does if your planning on going very low
