You need new doorcards from the faceliftet Polo.
I personally think it looks cheap. :cry:

Hi guys, haven't posted for a while and now I want to share what I have done during the last months. :D

First, we added some customisation to the headlights. It's a LED band right between the upper front grille and the headlight. Basically you cannot notice it when the car is parked, but it looks really nice when they are on. (at least I really like it :P )

Daylights:

I edited the photos, so it's more noticeable.
Image

How it looks, when the lights are off:
Image

Image

Some additional LED diodes in the interior, right below the arm rest; to match the previous interior lights that we mounted:
Image

I don't know if you have noticed, but I am a fan of the R-line models, so I am adding some small details on my car:

Side badges:
Image

Custom branded head rest :D :

I gave the textile for sewing. Firstly I had to remove the foam inside:
Image

Final result:
Image

Also I got a new lower front grille, looks so much better now:
Image

Image

I got a 2din screen to replace my original RCD310.

First you need to remove plastic cover, it has two small holes on the bottom, right above the AC
Image

Image

The cabling for each 2 din is different in my opinion, but fortunately everything works just fine! :)
Image

Also I got a rear viewing camera, mounted right above the number plate:
Image

The red line means 10cm between the rear bumper and the object:
Image

After the rough winter I decided to go for polishing. Every time I am more and more amazed by the effect of this procedure, it's like magic....
Image

The difference (of course that is under a particular angle and light, but WOW...) :shock:
Image

The wheels are ready for the summer too :D
Image

Final result from the polishing: :twisted:
Image

Right after the polishing we bought a new Karcher washer, K4 compact. If you are looking for a new washer, I definitely recommend that model:
Image

Since last week my Polo also have new tyres: Continental ContiPremium Contact 5. 195/55R/15
Image

NEXT:
1. I will probably lower the whole car with new springs. I am wondering BETWEEN H&R ( front 25mm; rear 40mm) Spring Kit for the 6R or the Volkswagen Racing (20-25mm front and rear) Spring Kit. I found a kit from Eibach (25-30mm) too, so that is also an option. Please leave your comments if you have experience with those products. What are the main differences (between those products) apart from the actual lowering? Also can you give me more info about the "stoppers" that I need to put on the coilovers,please?

2. Currently I am in Germany and I saw that rear bumper, I believe that's the ABT one. So I am starting to save money for this too... :D

with those nice alloys you may want to consider a set of safety wheel bolts ;)

Another great mod, with a great result I may say!
Sound Damping
Doors + boot are covered with foam and wadding.
The result is a brand new car! :D :twisted: There is no road noise anymore and also the sound system sounds much much better now! You can hear the work of the suspension. :D
Definitely recommend this as a modification.

Stopping the road noise came mostly from wrapping the boot and the space around the spare wheel. :wink: The sound quality (much more bass) came from the door wrapping.
