next plans are to:

Get my boot, front bumper and behind my handles smoothed and get the whole car resprayed.

Refurb my alloys and get them fully hand polished

Have got a momo team 300 steering wheel but i haven't got it fitted.

I'm also replacing my headlights with some new shiny ones.

Very nice, very clean, love the wheels, not keen on the mirrors though TBH and personally I'd have a standard badged front grill

Its been a long time since I've done a update for my car but over the next lot of months i hope to make many changes.

So recently i got my car a badged grille and a pair of 15mm spacers for the rear and this is how it looks.

My next plans are to:

Refurb and fully polish my alloys

remove helper springs from my front coilovers for more lows (Hoping to get airride)

New headlights

and many others.

Looks great, love the BMW wheels on it. Did you ever find out which rear spoiler it is ?

Might go back to a badged grill on our car

Thanks man, I was for near selling the wheels but i thought it would be better give them a good a refurb and a polish instead.

No i haven't, ill try and find out for you, keep forgetting.

I've always thought the badged grill looks far better. Pick one up, if you dont like it sell it.

Today I went to take my helpers out of my coilovers. Once I removed my coils i realised I didn't have the tool require to remove the bolt which keeps my top mount in place like the picture below. Could anyone let us know what I need?

I used a spark plug socket like this: http://espimages.biz/2386/I/222/9/2461-logo1.jpg

Allen key down the middle to hold the strut as i twisted the nut off using a spanner on the socket.

So today I got a deep socket and removed my helpers and cleaned the coils. Now the polo looks ten times better.
