Coilovers are planned for the future, as is the exhaust. Keeping lighting as it is. Del_G40 is giving me an S2000 aerial

It'll sound really nice - I heard dubpolo's back in '05, he has BMC and OE exhaust, it souned like it had a nice little growl to the engine note

Basically pretty simple, I would feel confident in fitting one after *helping* Prash fit mine for me! The effort comes when you start fiddling about with ways of getting the cold air in without using the OEM cold air feed haha

Where did you end up buying the BMC from mate?

My S2000 aerial is the only visual mod on just now. Can't wait to get everything on next weeks

Right. Got my s**t resit exam out the road so tonight I finally got my plates fitted, my VW tax disc holder and Limited Edition Club Polo sticker. 'rents helped me a little as it took ages to get everything aligned. S2000 aerial was a treat from DelG40 last week. Here are some sneaky pics before it gets a big wash on Thursday (sorry pics are crap, t'was getting dark)

Front end:

Looks so much better than the cheap dealer thing:

Spot the sticker:

Not sure on the 'plates (sorry!) but the tdh and aerial are spot on, funnily enough I've done both those mods to mine too

Some people like the plates, some don't lol. I would of had the German ones but couldn't be bothered with the hassle I'd get from coppers

I got to agree its either german plates or standard plates with nothing on!!

Sorry

Other than that this looks set to follow in the steps of some of the great GTi polos! good work fella!!
