that looks really low....splitter wouldnt last long

Yeah i dont think the splitter would look right either :/

Neil, White GTI with black OZ's... Get your tissues out. Personally I prefer the VW Motorsport's

(After 20mins of flooding the room in tears) :L

Where did you find this? :L And yeah i agree, they do look good, but there are better wheels for polos

On the www.vwwatercooled.com forums They don't look as good as I imagined them to

Same, i thought they woulda looked more mean, like the Polo R? Maybe they would look better if they where 18's? This is making me think that spraying my Riva's would possibly be a better decision than going for these rims eh?

Yeah, they'd look nice in Black imo. I'm holding out for some VW Motorsport 17"/18" but i'm getting my springs fitted on the 25th of Feb

I need someone on this who is good at photoshopping to do me a favour Ohhhh, just over a month, can't wait eh?

Heres just a little update for any new members etc. At the start of this thread I had numerous plans for my Polo. Below is a list of what I have completed up to date and what I still hope to do in the future Any other ideas/opinions for me?

Completed:
- 17" Alloys
- H&R 25/40 Lowering Springs
- HID Kit and Sidelights
- Interior Lights Changed To White Lights
- De-Badge Rear


Future Plans:
- GTI Rear Diffuser and Upgraded Exhaust
- GTI Side Skirts
- GTI leather Steering Wheel
- Black Wrapped/Painted Mirrors and Roof
- New Reg

Wouldn't bother with any of the GTi parts personally, I wouldn't mind a nice exhaust system but there's limited available for the 6R. I'm considering a Revo air filter, I know there won't be any performance gains but it might make a nicer engine note. The black wrapped roof/mirrors is a good shout also. Apart from those i'm just waiting for the LED DRL retrofit from VW.

You still gonna get the ones in the fog lights or change the full headlight unit?

The parts are available from Germany at the moment, but no dealer will go near them until they launch in the UK. I was informed from my dealer these would be hitting the UK in the new year.. but i'm yet to see anything

About the GTi side skirts.. they're only an ABS plastic insert that fits onto the existing side skirt from the normal-joe Polo. I saw a couple on sale on eBay a few weeks back for £80. I don't think they'd be too expensive to source from a dealer if you could find the part number

Would you not rather the lights that go into where the fog lights are instead, i think you posted a picture of a polo a while back with it? I think it looks better than the strip above the fog light.

Yeah the side skirts would be handy enough to get and fit id say, but would look silly without the back bumper do you not think? :/ I know you love keeping it all OEM and not turning a non gti into something that looks like one, but i do think it would look much better than standard

Those installed instead of the fogs just cry out 'Rice-boy retrofitted LEDs' to me.. I prefer the ones over the fogs, I know they're not everyone's cup of cha but it's my car so sod what everyone else thinks The black plastic inserts on the side skirts wouldn't be ripping off a GTi really and as long as you keep any exterior modifications OEM parts, it's not gonna look a dogs dinner
