Seeing as I've just got my membership, I thought I'd start a thread.

This was the polo 3 years ago, the day I got it - complete with hubcaps!!! :

I'd been dreaming of getting my hands on one of these for years, as you can see the stubby aerial went on straight away.

Quite soon after this I purchased a set of Lupo GTI Bathursts which needed a refurb and 4 Toyo Prozy 205 tyres:

While I had the tyres off me and my dad fitted Apex springs to drop the car 40mm:

Painted my calipers red as well as fitted the Green Stuff break pads:

I next retro fitted front spotlights and changed the front grill to a GTI honeycomb one as well as tinted all windows and put a black vinyl strip down the B pillars:

Fitted a K&N Air Filter (which in the Polo means two :S)

I then took the Polo to RMS and got a Stainless Steel Cat. Back exhaust system fitted as well as de-badged the tailgate:

Gutted out the car completely and fitted full GTI interior:

new interior:

I then purchased a GTI tailgate and front splitter:

Re-sprayed the tailgate mercato blue and and the splitter gloss black and textured:

So! to recap..............

Cheers! so do I :) my aim is to keep it subtle.....what does OEM mean?

what do you think....should I put the red line along the front grill like on a polo GTI???

I like the idea, my dad doesnt, any opinions??
