yeah the helpers are out in all the pics with black white or pink wheels, i wound it up early this year and never dropped it again

and the seats are pretty straight forward, anyone with even the slightest hand on skills can fit them :)

Hi mate, cars looking sweet on those Bentley centred rims. Also I know it was a while back but is there any chance you can remember what profile tyre you ran on those audi A3 pepperpot-type wheels? And how low you wnet on them? Its just I've got a set but I'm lowered 30mm so a bit unsure as to what tyre to go for. And hope you don't think I'm copying it just seemed a bit different and not too many 9ns are running them.

Any advice on tyres would be much appreciated,

Will.

well after driving round in THIS for the last year, I've decided it was time to sell it and bring the polo out of retirement.

plans are..

de-recessed front rubstrip

fit my gt front lip

gti skirts and rear valance

full respray (including colour coding rubstrips, skirts and valances)

new wheels (something wide and polished)

front fogs

h.i.ds

leather retrim

arm rest

black internals on headlights

and few other small touches

will upload a few pictures of the polo as it stands at weekend once its been mot'd :)

been mostly cleaning everything up with the car standing for a year, picked up a set of bbs monty 2's with brand new proxes for £60 which i was happy with, although they will need painting because they are blue o_O

And my camera has decided to break so i cant even get any decent pics.

As the car car stands theres quite a few scuffs and scratches off people squeezing past it in the drive and pulling hose pipes over the top of it :mad: so I've been working on polishing the scratches out of it with various scratch removers and polishes.

I fitted new front disks and pads, bottom arms and bushes, ball joints and booked it in for an mot.

car was mot'd on friday and passed with no advisorys :D

I'm going to get a price on the quilted leather retrim and pick up a new wing tomorrow ready for the respray..

will get pics up as soon as i find the cable for my other camera :D

I can't wait for these pics :D
