@BLACK6N_POLO - they're 16v, i think they lookgreat and what look good on your black polo, your choice in the end though

@polo_mf - i got 60mm gmax springs from tom_mk4 off the site, they ar eon standard shocks but after a few months i think ill invest in coilovers, once the crappy ride quality gets to me :?

i do like what you've done to the front end, the colour-coded grille and the smoked front indicators give it an aggresive look
love the colour to
