UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Haha do you think that I as a
a pretty new driver want to attract the attention from
the police?!? I'm not sure what you mean by reflectors but my rear lights are fully legal
and fully functioning and look great on m Black polo!

It's the middle reflective bit's in the tail light. First pic I stole from the picture thread so sorry who's ever it is And second pic is mine but can't see very well.

I have thought of getting some GTI lights, but for now its staying pretty standard with a couple of changes here and there until i am used to the car
I've only had the car since monday night haha.

Just seen this thread, great choice of car . Really like what you've done so far, pretty good in less than a week of ownership! That chrome numberplate surround is pretty cool as well.
My input: get a stubby/shorter aerial. The standard fit ones look ridiculous lol.

You need to have rear facing reflectors for when you park up on a dark road. It stops people driving into the back of your unlit car and it is a legal requirement. I don't know what yours look like but if they are legal for road use then the reflectors should be visible. I think thats why the other posters keep bringing them up, as its not clear whether yours are visible or not from this thread.

Haha yeah to be honest i looked out my window and thought it looks silly haha, i will look into replacing it with a stubby one. any recommendations? as i dont want to lose to much quality etc.

The car is getting a nice clean tomorrow! and hopefully my flyeyes kit will be delivered too so maybe a tad light tinting we shall see!

Shampoo'd and claybar'd



Front Lights Flyeyed

Upclose (the flyeyes is smooth however shadows etc make it look little bumpy in the pic)


Rear Lights Flyeyed

Upclose

Mate, that looks the sh1t!! Looks amazing! How did you find trying to fit the tint around the tail lights? Hard or not? And I know this sounds a bit stupid, but at what distance can you start to tell theres holes in?

Looks amazing mate! Keep it up!

The flyeyes is actually as easy as the videos make it, very easy to peel and reseat so the tail lights were alot easier than you would have thought.
you can see the holes from about 2m away however it doesnt look bad in my opinion.. and its fully legal, and easy to remove if you get bored of it and want a change lol

looks good mate, glad youve shown a pic of up close and at a short distance away, even from the short distance youve taken the pic you cant tell the holes are there
no doubt some people wont like it (i got a few of them opinions when i first did my car last year but it seems to have taken off and everyones trying it now)

Looks great! Have you done the chrome mask yet? Mines going in today

Thanks man! Yeah, each to their own, everyone has their own preferences but i like it and its my car :p
The flyeyes are good as they provide a good effect and are totally legal, win win in my opinion!

they are not very good at keeping us updated
But I do believe approx 2 to 3 weeks

Hopefully sooner though

That's a f***ing nightmare... waiting for bits.... If I find somewhere else to buy from I will keep you posted!
