UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Hello there, new to the site, I bought a Polo about 6 weeks ago. Its my 7th car in 2 years and I dont mess about with modifications!

Straight off i got the car and restored the paintwork with some heavy duty polishing and waxing:

So it went from this:


used a bit of this..


With one of these


and a bit of this


To make this




This is the first week.

Naturally straight after this I sought out a set of alloys.

New to 6n2s I went 13" buying some weller staggered dishes, bad choice i found out later as they are far too small for the arches unless i like broken sumps:





Racing slicks on, obviously didnt drive on them (on the road ) but got to the point that i had to sell them on.

Second set!

I became a bit of a wheel whore, found some AMG replicas on ebay, great deal, old geezer that never knew what he was selling. Tbh only bought to profit but i gave them a go and at 17" with 55 ratios they were too large for the arches. (not to forget the 5.114 pcd)



Good fun, too small and too big. so now you're wondering what next?

read on..

Week three, Stance.

So i decided after almost selling the car, that i would keep it and have a little bit more of a play,

NATURALLY, coilies had to be fitted, bare essential.

Pictures sat on the 13s

So now i was on the floor, i needed to get outwards, so i sourced out a set of beautiful 14" banded steelies.

8j rear 7j front, killer stretch at 185 55 14.

Genuine VW wheels and center caps, perfect size and fitment. Gazm!

( i am a photographer )

Moar!

Time to take a breath and wash you're eyes from the photo whoring.

What you just witnessed was this:


To this:


in about 3-4 weeks and £600 ish

Looking good man, love the wheels.

Just resprayed my wheels using chrome spray paint, i knew it would be optimistic thinking it would actually come out chrome-ish, but it wasnt too bad to be honest!

Pics of wheels sprayed:

Looks rude man!
Glad yours is in better condition than mine!



Btw, thats no stretch. Get some 165/45s over them, now thats stretch

Very Nice Mate

I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!

This is so sweet. What wheels are they? Banded mini G60's?

Looks awesome mate

Saw this for sale over at edition. Hope you still have it. Looks sick. I agree with stretch on the front and nose down.

Yeah, wacked this up for sale on here now, want something with a little more grunt, maybe a TDI//


Im looking for £2250 if anyone is interested.


Got some new pictures the other day, came out better than all of them so far. Also the car starred in a little movie we made on the two cars that attended the shoot.
