Really like the stubby mirrors.

I've been thinking of doing this but then i think "If i get into a accident because i couldn't see the other car in the smaller mirror", i will feel pretty stupid by getting the smaller mirrors!

No GTI splitter or AeroWipers? It would be only thing I would add to your plans.

P.S. - Weren't you getting the 6n2 interior?

Looks great in black, especially with the clear parts and black alloys.

On a side note,

NOZ: Do you have a set of the MK5 rear lights to sell?

sorry, I don't.

Most people hate this rims cause they look small and don't go with everything. However, polo's being the right style and yours being black make these ideal so don't think anything of other peoples thoughts.

hi mate,,,the cars on adjustable coilovers which are wound right down so im guessing its lowered around 80mm..Its actually quite a good height whilst still beign drivable and looks good,,,i can get up my steep as hell drive and get over speed bumps..You can a decent coilover setup for around £200 now and id reccomend them over springs/shocks all day long...hope this helps.
