hahaahh thats ace...i am liking that colour mate! 8-)

quality, colour code the wheels, u could rat that right up, looks puka dude, i think that some standard polo steels but banded would WORK on this car down 2 a t.

good job :)

BTW get yourself a 16v splitter or GTI splitter 8v is to short :p

Edited by P20 DUB

that does look pretty funky. I agree, you should colour code the centres of the wheels.

Will look awesome then :)

that looks awesome!

where'd u get your roof leather'd?

and also, with the respray...does that mean the inside of your bonnet is still red? or did you remove the engine and do the whole lot? (not being picky...just wondering, incase i want to respray in the future)

looks cool, bit of a laugh, but i would have given it the tt white

That looks mint 8-)

The guy who bought mine had something similar planned for it :lol: i think he`ll rethink if he reads this :paranoid:

Ha.... Good man fair play to you... Nice to see something different about... Where'd you get the paint, rattle cans or compressor job? Fair play, it used to be rough but now its proper rough... 6N2 GTI splitter and it'll be the job!

What you mean exactly about smoothened door handle recess? The oval / circular bit, how to you grab the handle?? I'm conflustered...

Does your single wiper still wipe the whole screen, know you said its the standard one but how was it changed to be centred??

Very nice again lad!

Its definatly different mate :) done a good job

Martin.

@ p20DUB - i found out the 8v is too short :p iv a 6n2 gti one ordered anyway :D

@ grant - the roof was done my myself and my dad. same with every other part of the car. my engine bay isnt done because this was done quickly as a joke but i'll do the bay when doin the car properly

@ max - yea the TT white paint is in my garage so if i fancy a change is mask her up and get spraying.lol

@ 1st cars a polo - we have loads of the paint. we use it on our bikes and trikes (thing army green porsche trike wheelying up the m1:D) it was done with a compressor. i took the handles off, filled the recess then put he handles back on. still easy to open. i'll fire up pics if u like.

cheers everyone :D

Holy shit thats awesome!!!!! Really like that! some trick touches and the leather roof is 8-)

Deserves to be ratted with some dark 14x9 banded steelies!

I want that car! :D

Fancy selling it mate ;)

Or px with mine and cash my way :p

Edited by Polo01

That looks good mate. I agree with what has been said about banded steels :thumbsup: Would suit so well

Nice roof :)

if thats what my car looked with the 7 & 8 BCW's y did i get rid of the 8's, i should have jst never had people in the back damn it...nice car anyways

looks awesome! can't believe you beat me to filling the door handle recess's been planning that mod for a while now! can you put pics up of them please?

definately should have gone TT white but like you said once your bored you can get it done, really impressed with this.

That looks awesome mate, leather roof is definately original, job well done

looks awesome! can't believe you beat me to filling the door handle recess's been planning that mod for a while now! can you put pics up of them please?

not since seein a lupo in pvw by any chance??? thats what convinced me.. nice mod. ;)

no money+no skills= a polo thats nowhere near what i want. :-(

....wouldb borin if it was any different tho. :nod:

Just filled the hole? Its quite deep tho... Please get some pics up... V nice... Gti splitter will look class...Possibly tint headlights to match front indicators... Either satin black the steffans or banded 14x8 or 9s would be the absolout shit...
