So its been a while, abit too long this time. Truth is i had lost all interest in her tbh. Even went to the extent of putting her up for sale/ gauging interest and nearly accepted an offer!!! But and this is a big but, i fell in love agen looool.

Stupid jokes aside, i think its fair to say that i started the year off with a bang! After that enjoyment... the serious stuff came about. Sorted out the annoying gap i had in the arches - this was done by slapping on 20mm spacers all around. This meant that the colour concept bbs' now filled those arches better !

Then.....Quickly, Very Quickly got bored of the old theme and then came the *POLISHED CONTENT* i was promising for ages. This came in the form of some beautiful OZ Turbo's.

Specs u may ask?? 15x8's (2" dishes all around), 4x100 and Nankang 185 stretched to giv it a nice look.

Then came the fun stuff:

Didnt like the way she sat so decided she was goin LOWER :D :mrgreen:
As a result, this was the finished product:

Any opinions/ constructive criticism welcome... :roll:

Yes Ash the turbos look nice man, cars looking sharp.

Thanks for the love people.. I can confirm that - YES the centres are staying red (well that is the plan atm - but i tend to get bored very easily and very quickly)
I got really bored of the Black and yellow theme. Needed some more colour and thought nothing better than red.

I knw many of you may not like it or think it may not be very "scene" but this is the way its gna be. Its a love it or hate it car
Got plans to make/add some more red to the car. Things i got in mind:

That red trim around the front GTI grill.
Red Callipers
Plan to Carbon wrap my side mirrors (got a driver stubby for really cheap and even painted it but jus wanna change things up)

The pics dont really do the car and justice and it really needs to be seen to be appreciated. It won alot of people over - and lets just leave it at that.

U know what, il see how badly my brother wants the hellas when i give him the car, if not as badly as u then u can ave em bro.
Raz had a set of turbos on his 6n2 didnt he, the look was diffrnt 2 urs but jus shows regardles what u do to them their sick wheels!

It'l be a company car for a while, benz e250 bluemotion i think.
Have had sum big boy cars over the past 2 years, e46 320, 330, nissan 350z and a porsche boxter. Downgraded due to stupid insurance prices and also i had always wanted dub my polo which i used as a 2nd car then.

Will buy another dub sumwer down the line, it'l have to be a classic beetle but we'l see.
