wonder if you can help me mate, I see you have changed your side indicators. one of mine is full of water so obviously i need to change it (cos it looks like s**t!), how did you go about changing yours? I take it the wing has to come off but them what? I would really appreciate any pics if you have them.

Not at all mate, Just leaver them out. If one side doesn't want to leaver out then try the other side - Should pop right out :D

Yup removed it because didn't want move the butterfly - heard apparently it can damage it. After refitting, put it throught the VAG COM to adjust it - Pretty cool stuff :P

Looks Quality mate, much better with the G60's on there.

I do really like the OZ Superturismo's but I dont think they suit the Polo, you can't really go wrong with a set of G60's 8)

Calipers look cool too, you just need a spot of Tyre blacker to make the G60's stand out more.

Yup I'm waiting for the three complete updates to be done over the next the couple of days and the forecast to get better, then I'm going to valet the whole car :D

I may refurb the OZ's for next summer with lower profiles...

Update 2 of 3 has finally been done :D

This one was the most major and exciting one I've been waiting for :D

Finally been lowered on the Eibach Sportlines springs and looks and feels great!! I was always worried about loosing the ride comfort when lowering but the sportlines do a great job!

Haven't had a chance to get better pics yet but will do very soon!
