@ septic: I guess the pidgeon just ran out of luck that day

Thanx for the comments, it's that kind of remarks which make me wanna keep taking pics and post them

@ Petar: you're welcome m8, I'm always in to help a fellow car-lover out with some info!

Finally, the moment was there that my baby came home all by herself

A familiar site to see....:

The way I drove back home:

License-plates on, lights in, and away it is!

Stil some minor bits and bobs to do, but hopefully getting some time around it this holiday

Took me some time to up-date, sorry about that, new phone, not used to it and takes ages to up-load pics to my pc, f*cking Nokia's!

But bought me some more sh*t which is slammed on/under/in the mk4!
First of all finally got the "filling" for the holes in the front bumper:

New plastic gitter, in the Golf GTI-mesh-design, looks a lot better then the usual gitter to my opinion.

And hooked up the last parts of the air-ride install to get it working! Bought myself an automatic fuse for under the bonnet in stead of f*cking about with renewing fuses etc., just one click on it and done!
Put on the front this afternoon, here some pics in daylight of the final exterior look of the car now:

Well, I not embarrsed to drive it around without front and with the air on highest position anymore

As ever, thats some awesome work!! looks killer. The colour really sets it off nicely....kinda classy looking in that shade of grey. Once you have the alloys on that car will look f*cking brilliant!

Man I love this. Finally unveiled and I cant get enough. Go for deepdishes and flare your arches!

I think Jarno's planning to keep the BBS RXII - I asked the same question a few pages back.

Jarno, not a huge fan of the rear bumper (that's just my personal taste), but otherwise, I think it looks great.

When I think about doing a project with my Ibiza, I have a very similar colour in mind, possibly slightly darker.

Man I love the rear bumper. I wonder if its one of his custom efforts or an after-market part?

i noticed u did alot of work to that engine of yours
how come if u went to all the trouble of takin it out u kept it single point and NA

the turbo kit is very easy to put on and makes one hell of a difference

@ everyone: thanx for the positive remarks! I'm very happy with the car now, can't stop driving it around and flash people with the air-ride at each and every trafficlight. I never thought that I'd be hoping it's a red light, nothing funnier to see those confuced faces when you drop it to the floor, and then make it rise all the way up again, and drop to driving height again haha!

About the rear-bumper, it's aftermarket, and it stays, I like it myself

And about turbo-kits, I hate kits, they cost a sh*tload, and are never "complete" if you wanna do it properly. Why I didn't choose that option is 1) if I'd ever do such a conversion, I'd get forged pistons, of which a good set costs more then all the parts I've put in now (most is second-handed and all is done myself, which saved my sh*tloads of cash!) 2) m8 of mine did it on his AEX engined mk4 Polo, got over 130bhp and 220+Nm torque, because of that he needs to replace the bearings on the crankshaft every year to be save. Those are things I don't feel like doing every year to keep the engine in a 100%. It's all a matter of money and effort here

I only earn about 400 euro each month, so can't afford to buy that kind of parts too though

And the rims are still going to be the RX II's, it's the genuin Polo rim, so the best subtle touch of chiqueness to it in my opinion, gonna make them look wide too because of the spacers around
