UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Got a few pics with my mates Corsa and Astra the other day Vauxhalls never compare to VW's
Enjoy guys!



























Need a set of Decent rims now Anybody help me out?

Any comments welcome

Very nice, love the CF. In my oppinion the car would look nice on some BBS's if you can afford them or a set of Lenso's BBS style if you cant.
Or go down the OEM route and get some standard VW wheels which can also look nice if you go low. My rule is wheels before low, that way you can sort the perfect stance with your new wheels

Thanks VDUB I know, I have been looking at BBS for a long time. But the ones people are offering me are too small, I am looking for about 17", 16" minimum. Also, lowering is a problem as well as I need to find some decent, but cheap, coilies. Still a student you see

Thanks for the words!

Well im a student as well. I'm running Technix atm and they're good. They cost me like £190 from ebay and you can go as low as 120mm, so tis awwll good.
Audi TT comps? They're 17"?

Can you give me a link for the coilies please? And I am not to keen on the TT comps... Looking for something with around 5 spokes.

nice pics and your cars coming along! need to get wheels and coilies! lol my advice on coilies AP. bout £365 same quality of weitec and kw for a fraction of the price really and handle soo gd. i am also a student so am happy i invested in these for the price of them some of the proper cheapo coilies the ride is crashy and too harsh from what some people have said but you know sometimes you get what you pay for.

They will drop the price a bit.

I see, are they stainless steel? As I don't really want them rusting on me? And how's the ride. As people say cheap ones could be fairly harsh ride.

Thanks matt_123, true but I don't have much money on me after the CF

Some really class pics here mate. I really like your carbon fibre grille surround. Looks epic! The footwell lighting is cool too, been thinking about something similar myself, assuming they are just tapped into the interior light or something?
Thought about a set of gloss door pillars? Would really finish it off nicely.

Thanks blaze! Yeah I have thought about the gloss black pillars, but not found a place where they can do a good job of it, might finish it off in Carbon Fibre again.

And I've got a little tutorial on how to install footwell neons on this forum somewhere, it's tapped into the side light switch, so when I turn my sidelights on they come on with the dash lighting. Make's it look more OEM-ish

who did your tints, how much was dey.

Well the little back quarters I did myself, was a pain in the arse only for those little windows So I took it to the professionals called Privacy Tinting. Did it for me for £120. Not to bad but the qualities good! I want my fronts doing now! Haha!

Few updates :

like the wing mirrors are they stick on vinyl or is it a plastic cover?

It's Carbon Vinyl. Done a real good job of it and I am REALLY impressed with the result. Took it to a local meet tonight and everybody was actually convinced it was real carbon fibre Very happy with the results!
