Another One On The Go

Featured Replies

Just started doing our lasses polo up to try and motivate her to pass her test. She took 2 tests a while back failed and gave up so I'm hoping a little inspiration will help along the way. Its a 1997 bog standard 6n, I've chucked my old wheels on it, a badgeless grill, nice jvc stereo and 12 month tax and test. I'm going to run this until shes passed as its a little lighter on fuel than mine lol. I'm going to do this one up completely different to how mine is as shes no car enthusiast her self ha so needs to stay subtle. So just picked up a set of valver bumpers, stubby mirrors, all red rears (one from germany), some pressed plates and some coilovers. Finally i can deck a car to the floor without smashing my sump ha. Might even get some 13" bandeds for her. Ill get the pics up later when I'm in the car.

Plans are:

Smooth badge and handles on tailgate

Smooth front wings

Smooth Filler Cap

Colour code handles

Smooth Sills

Full Re-spray

Some Clear headlights with amber indis

Fit the parts i already have

I know ha, she'd hate banded steels anyway but I'm running it until she passes which will not be soon so thats why i was guna put em on. Their 14's at the minute so just guna wind them all the way down with the helpers left in.

Haha I'm never letting her drive it lowered either, I'm guna raise it back up again when she takes over lol. i might even just never give it her and buy her something else when she passes. i get attached and take things over the top, it might have a gttdi in it before i know it ha.
