i'd say you'll be ok, the only problem being the coilovers. Due to the suspension leg design on mk3 polos you can't just change the shock absorber.The only way to fit coilovers to a mk3 as far as i know is to send your front suspension legs off to germany to be converted by one of the suspension companies.

can anyone confirm this?
