Polos looking great, Are the gti parts you fitted genuine from vw, or are thry replica chinese made. I have found a company in china which makes cup edition replica bodykit and wondered if its any good.

cheers bud, the rear apron and sideskirts are genuine, but the bumper was in a fact a replica i believe. its made of PU and all the holes are matching with the original, so i thought it was a good buy

how much are they going for with the company you found?

The price i was quoted for the whole cup edition kit was $1500 (£915) from the company called JC Sportline in Shenzen,
however im only interested in the front bumper and maybe the cup sideskirts.

How good is the quality of ur PU bumper and does it line up perfectly?
Also, have u blended the rear lower and top part of the bumpers, as the line is not visible in recent pics

wow that is something, i've seen sets over here for around 5000RMB fitted and sprayed. but the sideskirts are not available unfortunately. they do line up just right, have a look at Matt_123 progress thread for a pic. is that price with shipping?
yeah i got the rear lower valance blended together, just finishes off the backend a little more.

Got alot of time for this car, outside and inside works a treat......

Nice ride this.!

[beijing polo]

hello everyone again,

thank you everyone for the positive comments, good to know there are some appreciation out there
i just returned to beijing and reunited back with the car. its on the said above coilovers, and what a difference it has made!
fronts are halfway down, and the rears have adjusters in 3/4 way down. would fill the arches, but i need it drivable on a day to day basis.
some quick phone pics.





let me know any suggestions, and thanks for having a look.

[9N3 Turbo]

Looking good Beijing Polo.

One question did this kit come with the adjustable top mounts?

If so could you post a pic showing these as i am thinking of getting a set of the top mounts but cant see much room at the top of the turret to adjust them.

Thanks

i just ran out and had a quick look, and it looks to me there isnt much room at all! they must have fitted it with the kit, but to me it looks quite deep into what looks like a well. unless you shave around the hole flat then you need to remove the whole coilover to change settings. hope these pics will give you an idea of depth. i can see the outline of top plate, and 4 screws inside the hole.




hope these help you in any sort of way.
