Evening all, Thought I'd quickly share some pics of my car. Purchased this car last week, Its a VW Polo 6n2 1.4 16v. When I purchased it it had a few bits on there that I wasn't a fan of (Sticker bombing, Other Stickers and wheels). Got a hefty folder of paperwork with the car and when looking through it I found that I have every receipt for every mod and bit of work that has been done on the car. Ill make a quick list of the mods I followed by some before and after pictures.

Smoothed front and rear GTi bumpers
Smoothed bootlid
Tinted rear window
GTi Clocks
Porsche Tombstone interior
Powerflow cat-back exhaust
Team dynamic alloys
Custom center console to hold Sat-Nav
Black roof
Halo headlights with matching indicators
Stuby black mirrors
Pressed Plates (Now changed for stubby plates)

Thanks, Mark

These pictures are from the ebay listing..

These are the pictures after I've started doing little bits and bobs..

Removed sticker bombing (Grill and interior handles)
Changed the G60 Steels for 15" Team Dynamics
Changed tinted rear lights for standard red ones

Welcome - Looking good there!

I would suggest moving the number plate off the lower grill though and stick it or use a bracket to put it onto the bumper in its normal place as it severely affects air flow into the radiator

Thanks.. In all honesty it hasn't caused any problems as of yet. The car doesn't over heat or smell like its getting hot etc

It's more when it gets hot outside in the summer months - can create a fair bit of heat soak in the bumper cavity :)
