Well I have been watching forums for a little while now and thought I would do one as I haven't seen one this colour yet :)

As it is summer I have no college so I'm able to work full time so the modding will start !

Right so this is what my polo looks like now all I have done is taken off the polo on the back and sprayed the front badge black. Its a 1L 3dr 6n2

Hi, I seen one this colour at a show the other week and it looked really smart. Wasn't too keen on the colour at first but it's different and looks better in the flesh than on pics.

What are your plans for it? 8)

Got quite a few things planned :)
Rims not saying what ones thiw you will have to wait and see
Want it all colour coded
Maybe a blackroof and maybe blackwingmirrors haven't decided yet
New rear bumper
Front fogs
Coilovers
Hids
Gti front splitter
Honeycombe grill
Smoother boot
De wiper
Maybe medium tints
For the inside I have a few ideas but going to be mainly working on getting the outside done but there will still be some changes happening in the process of doing something now 8)
Might be a few more mods can't think of everything and I keep changing my mind ;)

Sounds good, I love this shape Polo.... By far the best and they look class when they have a bit money spent on them

Liking the idea of the black roof and wing mirrors, go for the tints on the back windows too 8)

I'll keep an eye on this to see what rims go on :wink:

My plan was to get these fake bbs but with split rim and 7j front 8j rear but because of other things happening and now I'm at colege so only getting 2 days a week of work I'm thinking about slamming it on 14inch purple steels ? What's your view on that :)

I have been looking at banded steels but they are quite a bit of money aswell.

Think I will see how much I can get some normal steels and get spacers or something maybe just thinking bout idea at the moment. What you lot think ?

Haven't done anything for a while except led side lights and pressed plates.

But I was looking around on ebay and spotted a set of ats cups made in 1985 and they are the. 15" 5.5j ones so pritty rare but only got themn for 180 with tyres :D. In the process of refurbing them will keep the progress updated but just put nitromors on.

sprayed dash looks good, is it easy taking it off?
