The exhaust skirts aren't to my taste, but looking good mate. I like the RXIIs and HIDs.
Du have plans to lower it?

front gti spoiler will complete the look of the skirts , it's just a porblem to get 1 here israel is not full with polo gti like in the uk (only 50 gti in israel all from year 2000 after that year israel didn't import more due to fuel problems with the car)
about the exhaust it's the most expansive one - supersprint DTM
i'll take more pictures from other angels
about lowering, i heard it's wrecking the car isn't?

No not at all, if you get it set up correctly, followed by getting the camber and tracking done, your sorted.
As long as you don't drive like an idiot and remember to take speed bumps easy

thank mate
i want to make the car run a little faster,
and iknow this is the right place to ask the question.
i asked pepole about chanching to a open air filter and some pepole tell me that it will lower the performance of the car by sucking hot air from the engine bay, and i its installed good it's only add me 1-2 bhp.
my question is what you do guys with your polo for the first step of tuning?
thanks

like the car in general, not keen on the sideskirts though.
lowering will not wreck the car, the only thing that can wreck the car once its lowered is the driver as Tim said!
one thing that you can do if you want an induction kit is to fit a cold air feed. that should increase the amount of cold air getting to the engine!

BMC air filter, manifold cat back and remap will increase bhp to about 130-40, just be careful of strain on the gearbox!!

i found the BMC air filter
it's damn expensive it's worth it? by it's own

The BMC is the best air filter you can get for the GTi, it will offer small to no difference in power but sounds amazing, I think it's worth it but other beg to differ.
A remap is something only specialists can do, I know places to recommend but woudn't know any in Israel sorry!

A remap, remaps your engine to tell it to work in a different way to your advantage. For instance, if you had a BMC with 4-2-1 manifold, sports cat and cat back system, you tell the engine you've made these changes so it works better with the mods you've added to it. is something only specialists can do, I know places to recommend but woudn't know any in Israel sorry!
