Brought a load of stuff of eBay for the Polo more info coming soon

I also did the Big 3 audio, I didn't want my little 1.0 having a lot of stress on the electrical side...:)

Yeah thanks bud, i really need to take more photos, but my car isn't with me atm, as it is away for MOT thingers cross everything is fine, but i have a sneaky thought something will be wrong .

Did you know new Laws for lowing cars next Year? that no Lowering springs are allowed, only Coilovers if lowered.

Yeah I should be alright :) I just went for Eibach Pro Kit springs on my Civic, dropped it around 15-20mm on the front and 10-15mm on the rears.
Springs were £145 so not too bad really. Will you be lowering your Polo at some point?
