it took a coat of super resin autoglym and then P21S to get it this shiny!! :)

now for the questions (pics always get folks attention :))

i am after an anti roll bar setup for the rear, now someone mentioned golf mk2? does this entail the entire rear subframe?

or is there an easier way that is reasonable on cost??

front ARB will be 22mm from boggo polo me thinks :) but a stiffened front end without rear end will mean bigtime under steer, so wanted uprated for the rear (handling was transformed in my pug 306 estate when i uprated the rear anti roll bar to 28/32mm, was awesome, with a diesel ARB in the front end :) turned in lovely!

they are the G60 steelies, i personally think they really suit this polo 8)

The steelies do suit the polo and some opt for them as winter options. For some reason I still don't like the rear clusters. Think its the orange bulbs that make it really bad! Mk5 rears look sweet on this colour polo. Overall I think your car looks mint and probably took a lot of TLC to get it that shiny lol

Whats next?

i think if u were to do some smoothing (door handles a bit of the boot) and some silver bulbs and a 16v bumper kit would b lookin pretty tasty

tbh the exterior is staying as it is, the bright sunshine does nothing for the lights ;) they just blend with the body work ;)

however the anti roll bar questions still stand :) any ideas?
