What im getting done to my car is
1.Sprayed metalic black all plastics and mudflaps colour coded metalic aswel,ariel aswel(even tho its black) at the moment it just a light grey black i want it all 1 colour shinin
2.Bought fog lights and honeycomb gti grill for the top AND the bottom aswel. Also bought rear spoiler and the blue fog lights and sidelights i h8 the normal yellow colour blue looks sexy
3.Alloys 16inch prob 6 spoke they luk crazy!! (need advice on best size for them want lowprofile but on width i need advice)
4.Tints im going for the really dark on rear window and the other 4, so hard to find a 5 door in a 1.0

Thats a very intriguing idea - dont know of anyone who has had that done. Will be interested in that! I myself have a 5dr 1.0 gotta love the extra two doors. Id be stumped without them!

Also few questions
wtf is a splitter
and also the spoiler now iknow some come with the rear break light connected to it, but i want the plain v.wgti spoiler dose it stick on the the top of the rear window on the frame so yo can see the breaklight from inside the window still?

The splitter is the bit at the bottom of the bumper, which kind of sticks out, only Gti's get one as standard, but you can easily buy one from the dealer and stick one on. £80 for Mats

I paid £30/35 for mine from the dealer!

hi df:fd as for your question about the spoiler i think i know the answer. the gti one sits on the back of the tailagte and covers up the rear tailgate bracklight. but when you buy a spoiler it comes with a brake light that is screwed under neath and has a cable comming out the back that connects to the car. you have to remove the standard light (which is a pain unless u know how to unattach the clips) then stick it on.
jobs a good un, by the way silver polos are cool

Nope, but they are just the standard vw black ones, the drivers one has the vw badge on it. Just told them my reg and asked for mats at the dealer.

If you're going to put tints on don't do them dark, you'll hate them (trust me I had them on dark after a year I pulled them off) go for a light shade
