UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Updates since the last time i posted pics up:
-Honda Aerial
-Black B-pillars
-Customised plates (uk-polos.net written in the corner )
-Black Hella Led Lights (look more white than black on my car, i think they look a bit chavvy what do you all reckon?)
-Bootlid Spoiler

Here Are the pics


Keeping the black and green theme going with black b-pillars

and black hella leds







Future plans:
-Smoothing bumpers, I went to 'The Worx Bodyshop' and asked them about this and they said it would take 30hrs to do and they charge £30 for the hour!! cymru polo recently got his done didn't he? anyone know how much he paid?
-Smoothing centre VW badge and small dent(quoted £140 good/bad price?)
-Full Exhaust system
-16v rims diamond cut (can that be done? any ideas how that would look?)

Let me know what you all think, thanks

Looks class m8 !! Lights dont look to obad but I can see were ur comin from

Coming along nicely mate, not too sure about the rear lights. There not bad, just a shame there not a bit darker

How much have u got ur windows tinted by?

Looks good to me - I think the lights suit the colour quite well.

Looks really good. Don't normally like the smoked rears but look nice on yours. Agreed on lower prfile tyres.

As for the bumper smoothing, do it yourself, its p*ss easy (just to prove this, my missus did my rear one). And the tailgate. Look My bodywork thread

You can do it all in a couple weekends. Then just take all 3 panels to the spray shop (If you dont wanna do it yourself)

looking really good matey!! how much are your windows tinted by? i want the same sorta tint

I got them tinted 35% all the way around, i think thats the lightest tint you can get. Got them done from ICS in leicester.

Thanks for all the comments guys, i dunno what to do with the lights they look ok but i'm contemplating getting them tinted to make them a bit darker.

Another thing I would suggest it lower profile tyres, the wheels will look much better then.

Wouldn't that make my car even lower?

U front tints are illegal m8. Legal limit is 30% and urs are 35. Also all cars come standard with tint on them so u have prob got about 45+ on there

very nie mate wat i wud like next car update the mk4 !!

:D

looks really nice mate. coming along a dream aint it!

What that garage is quotin you is an absolute rip off!!!!!!! dont pay more than £500. £500 is a bit steep imo, but alot of it is down to where you come from. Like up here is ALOT cheaper than the south of england say.

just shop around bud, you'll find a decent price.

The diamond cut 16v rims would look hard as f**k with slightly lower profile tyres, looks good like it is, but willl make a good difference!! Just take them to a refurbers and they'd be able to do it for you, but don't expect it to be cheap though!

How much did you pay for your bumpers to get smoothed out dee-vub if you don't mind me asking?

well its hard for me to judge how much the bumpers woulda cost, cos can you remember the condition my car was in before with the bodykit etc on it, you may not have seen the thread, but its on here. well it cost me £900 to get it from that to now?
it included. rub down to bare metal, of all panels (apart from bonnet and roof) front, back and sides all smoothed, boot smoothed, front splitter fitted and sprayed also. solenoid fitted, got my car fully valeted.

Thnik that was it, so i got a bit of a bargain.
