Kristof's Progress, --New PICS PG.1-- !!

Post by Kristof_clg »

Well, i've been wanting a proper photoshoot a long time ago, finally yesterday a friend of mine offered to do it :)

Well, first of all this is how my Polo was when i bought it, so this is kind of a "Before and After" hehe :P :

Image

So, after about 2 years, what i've done to it:

- 15" wheels with 195/45 tyres
- Lowered about 50mm
- 6000°K HID
- Black front badge
- Black colour coded back badge
- Debadged the rear (Polo and 1.4)
- Sprayed tweeters
- Pedals and gear knob
- Replaced air filter
- Ground wire kit
- Shortened door pins
- Short antenna
- Some audio (i don't think it matters really.. :P )

Got a handmade high flow muffler (made in a garage where they only work on mufflers and exhausts) and added the double exhaust tip, the result sound is lower than stock but not very loud, so i was very pleased with the result. :wink:

Post by Kristof_clg »

Ok, i finally got my hands on some 15" TSW Hockenheim (2 of them need a little refurbishing), looks REALLY better than before, i also got a new head unit (Pioneer DEH-P6950IB) and a new air filter (NWD Performance).

The new exhaust looks great in this pics.

Thanks m8!

The only thing i've done in these few months is painting the drum brakes matt black, so the alloys stand out even more. I'm thinking about painting the front calipers red as yours... not shure though.
