i want it smooth really smooth im going OEM stylish with quiet aftermarket bumpers with an even balence of black and chrome
+ there will be some of the standar fetures i wanna keep like the rear plate reses
wolfsbury rear badge and old english tin black plates
the front i want the german angel eye headlights with matching indicators not the ultra both in one crap and maybe a chrome 3 slat grill and black mesh hopefully will will be awsome with the dark green 2 stage pearl paint and 18" RS8 alowys (dont worry the arches a as near as done for them

why do u think that i know it will b slightly more german than OEM but in my opinion it will be OEM tacken one step further as it being wolfsburg orientated

I just thought your modification list was a little large for the OEM look, (chrome detailing, 18"ers, smoothing) didn't mean to offend mate, your plans sound good!

That doesn't alter your compressionratio at all m8, that just puts the ignition off timing. To lower the compression, you have to increase the combustion space relative to the total cilinderspace when the piston is at it's bottom turning point. This can be done by increasing the combustionroom in the bottom of the head or by thickening the head gasket by using those metal sheet gaskets, or by using other pistons with bigger combustion spaces in them.

Door poppin' buttons look sweet, getting them in the same colour as the body too?

mo they are staying brushed ali

it didnt lower the compression as such but the combustion compression
i know its almost a step backwards after the turbo but way more of a safety feathure more and anything

haha id love to do this to mine, but there are 2 major things stopping me. first, i have literally no money. or a vr6 engine. or any of the tools needed.
second, i have a high enough premium as it is! 1.0 polo and its well into the 4 figure area. being young sucks sometimes.
