I haven't got a GTI frontlip, a m8 of mine has, don't know if it's hard to install, but I recon it aint that hard, since it's an original Polo mk4 partPedro_Hilario wrote:Humm,
But fitting that GTI splitter in the front bumper was a hard thing to do or was it easy - plug and play?
I was thinking of getting a ibiza splitter ( which requires a little modification) but the GTI would look better.
UP-DATE
Last saturday I went to a m8 of mine, who's a car mechanic, and drives this mk4:

Jep, that's a 1.8 20v Turbo from a Adui TT in there

And he's got a TT interior (dash and front and rear seats).
But for the up-date, he helped me out with the timing-belt (changed it) and all the other crap that's on that side, plus we put in my new camshaft from the Polo GT.
Power and torque have improve substantially noticeble!
Here some pics:
On the bridge:

Pop that hood!:

Gettin' some work done:

Old camshaft out:

Old cam to the left, GT cam to the right:

GT cam in:

Me timing the bloody bastard, also had to completely adjust the ignition timing

And after closing everything up again:

The test-drive was "a lot of fun", more power noticible @ every rpm, but after 4000 rpm it really gives a good kick, sounds a bit more "rouring" too

Thnx for the comments!
Got a new up-date,
First the mailman brought me a package from Germany this morning!

Here's what was in it:

11 chromed screws for the sidepanels for under the hood, and a chromed cap for the tank which contains the fluid for washing the windows. I sprayed the tank itself balck maigc metallic (original VW color
), will try to get some pics of this tomorrow.
And this weekend I finally got around to install me doorpanels back in:
Sprayed the handels and handels for the windows the same black magic metallic color, just like some more interior parts:

Fitted the tweeters from my JBL composet in the doorpanels and sprayed the holders for the tweeters also in the black magic metallic color
(it's all gonna be black magic metallic on the inside
)

Also moved the filter from the composet into the door inself:

And here's my new centre console:

Of course I'm gonna spary it in......black magic metallic
But first, since I don't smoke, and never let anybody smoke in my car, I decided to "clean away" the cigaret lighter and ashtray, so I melted it all to the centre console:


And started to fill up the little openings that were left, to get a smooth result after spraying it:

Already worked a lot on smoothing the lower console, it's gonna be black magic metallic too!

I smoothed al those nasty little lines and the parts where you can stick in coins/cash, now it's almost completely smooth, just needs some little more work before I can start spraying it
:

Hope to get it both sprayed asap!
