Not being one for picking faults.. But You missed a bit.. Inside the door shuts. I would have been a bit different with the colour too as mikes euro polo is a very similar colour.

Overall i do like the colour, and the mirror mod. In my view i think you went the wrong way with the colour. But its your dub. :D

Did you spray the wheels yourself cos i think they really suit it in the first pic when it was red. Did you just tape off the rim to keep that silver.

He's smoothed over the side repeater on the side wing and re-located it to the wing mirror

I think you just need to find another colour that works with the blue. Once you find the right colour, you can play around with exterior parts/rims to give the car a sweet look.

I love the look but can't help thinking that it would look much nicer with a 6n2 GTi Front splitter, clear front indicators or FK clear projectors and indicators and a decent set of alloys. Although I love what you have done with the steels!

How did the roof gutter rubbers spray, considering they are rubber surely they will crack over time in the heat and closing the doors?

a few mixed comments going on there. I bought the mirrors with the indicators in. and i painted the centre of the black masked the black up and painted the lip silver as a temp measure until i got sum alloys. i will be putting black angel eyes on the front and a set of ats cups with black centres. Im not terribly sure on the colour myself but it was a 200 pound job to cover the primer. i did ask for the roof rails not to be sparayed but they got sprayed anyway lol. some black ones will be going on in the future. i appreciate all your feedback thanks
