Some nice progress here dude ! Led fog lights look class there's a pic in my build thread with how mine look, I find you don't get as a wide beam though but if that doesn't bother you all cool, LED interior lights are so much better too ! Keep up the good work man !!

Cheers dude, yeh I'm not really bothered because I'm smoking my fogs, so i thought that if i get led bulbs they will shine through better, so i get style and practicality and its not often you get both hahaha

Walked out the other morning to find a dent in my drivers side wing! Wasn't happy!

The lettering on my tyres is scrubbing off nicely thanks to mr arch... OHH Static life....

Had another cleaning session the other day and found this little man at the front of my car

Here is a photograph that I took properly (with my 5Dmk2 not my phone) of my car at the Dirty Stancing Summer Meet over in Cov a few weeks ago. pretty happy with the way she is sitting at the minute, want to go lower at the back and debating taking out the helpers at the front to go lower too!

Y u no have bumper on yet?

I'm waiting to get my rear one down, because i didn't want to have a fresh rear end and then have a stone chipped front bumper, i know its going to happen but just want to do it all at once, rear bumper should be done soon though!

  • Author

Dropped my rear bumper into True Paintworks today!! They are a little busy but it should be done in a few weeks! pretty stoked that the final bit i need smoothing is under way!

  • Author

Few cheeky little updates to put up, just need to upload the photos. Also thinking about putting my front bumper on this weekend :)

Update 22nd September

Abit of a generic update but an update none the less, Abit more tyre scrubbing going on..

IMG_2477_zps5143bb7e.jpg

Took the plate off the front because it looks a shit load better!

How low I was at 120mm with helpers and bump stops

IMG_2482_zpsd463486b.jpg

Took my helper springs and bump stops out the other day, and the car bent the bitch jack as we were putting in the second axle stand, and then because of this broke the first axle stand

IMG_2495_zps90d96d73.jpg

When I got her up in the air in the end I had a look under it for the first time, since I dropped it and the results are pretty decent....

Maybe this colour?

Nice, i like it, these are sonnys old wheels, loved them on his polo, what size tyres you going for on the 8s then?

I like the colour of the rota grids above, or I'd go with silver to match the car man :)

165/50/15... anything more and you wont be able to lower your car.

et0 is a crazy offset on a polo, its achievable but you end up battering your arches to shit.

i ran 8s on the back of mine with 7s up front with 15mm spacers, was perfect.

if you get those wheels, thats my suggestion
