Hey Guys,

Just joined up, been a member of the bebo band for a while but only got round to signing up now.

Have a 6n2 Polo and a Vento, use clubpolo alot and though i'd come check it out over here.

My wee polo is going through a bit of a transformation at the min, have attached some pics below, all opinions welcome, good or bad!

... Pics all like 1 week old, the whole car is in primer at the min, so will get pics up soon of it painted!

I work for the UK and Ireland Importer for Dietrich and they gave me this bumper on the conditions I gave them pics for thier catalogue

This is my standard bumper with the side grilles smoothed off and the bump strips off, we also smoothed a 9n votex front splitter onto it and added a bad boy bonnet extension! .... This photo was take before the bumper was smoothed, its no where near as rough as this now

As you can see we smoothed off the bootlid, also removed the bump strips and added a 9n votex rear splitter with a slight bit cut out

Anyway, gimme your opinions

so you're doing both the front bumpers then deciding which one to keep?

the standard smoothed in one will be on most the time, but i work for the dietrich importer so i will have the dietrich mk7 front on for advertising reasons at shows and stuff

@Arnoldo: i am a member of jon44w but dont really use cruise sites anymore, i used to co-run maxedni but we got a bit bored of the scene to be honest!

@stani540: the bumper uses all of the original grilles from a mk7 GTI polo, VW are tryin to stroke me Â£200 plus VAT for them all

@DanDiesel: Vento is lowered with 60mm Poison Elf springs, but it actually went down about 70, lol .... Got a GTI 8v going into her at the min too
