My new 6N2! (Blue)

[kevism]

Cleaned it inside today, then it started raining before I could do the outside. Poor quality on my phone:



And this gadget arrived - 16 gig key shaped usb disk to load my music on to

Do the bottom grills come out without taking the bumper off? I don't want to pull anything too hard in case they crack or a clips breaks...

I'm blackening them up.

Yeah mate middle one pops out its clipped all the way around although mines held in with like one. And the side two are held in by a screw each

[red6n2]

you will almost certainly break a clip pulling the middle one out... but there is no other option,

[kevism]

I think I broke every clip bar 2 or 3

And anyway I had no suitable brush to rub it with it so it went straight back on. Have to figure out a way to stop it from waving about now.

I've not had trouble with mine even with 2 clips mate

One side is very loose so i might tack it in with something.

Also bought one of those small stubby aerials today and its hardly works, I can barely pick up any of my stations anymore. Not my day.

That's what happens obviously gonna pick up less bing shorter. Did you get an s2000 one? Heard they're ok

Also, has there been any other topics in here with guys modifying the same coloured Polo as mine? Had a look and couldn't find anyone.

...... Look at LowFoon's build thread, it is the same colour as yours and is amazing after all the work thats been done

About the stubby ariel, mine is crap in certain places and works in others...... Just put a CD on lol

The whole bonnet and side panels are covered in white paint splatter, someone obviously painted a wall/house near the car and didn't cover it up. So I'm T-cutting today... it took me 10 minutes to do about 0.5% of the amount of paint on it This is gonna take forever.

I'll just use this baby but I'm a sucker for morning and evening radio shows

A quick update. I haven't had time to do much, but it's coming along. There's a few refurbs here and there but when all thats done it'll look quite sharp.

To do list:

- New plates (as you can see in the pic)
- Either refurb the wheels or find some alloys
- Refurb the hazy front headlight
- Try and remove the paint speckles on the bonnet, front bumper and side panels.
- Replace the aerial base
- Get the dent on the left hand rail (you can see in the far right of the second pic) which was struck by the previous owner
- Try and sort out the other scuffs and marks

If funds begin looking up in 2012 I'm thinking of going down the black/blue colour theme route.
