i've never seen anyone so dedicated to their car

thnx m8, dedication is high over here Polo deserves to be treated as a princess

But here some pics (as promised) of some of the stuff from under the hood that I've sprayed so far:

Sprayed both covers for the distribution belt and the tank for washerfluid, tank for coolant is ready for spraying:



Close up without flash of the distribution cover, there's just some dust on it (need to clean my room ) It's as smooth and shiny as a newborn baby's arse!



And a close-up pic of the tank for the washerfluid, with the chromed cap I received yesterday:



All I need to do now is spary the coolant tank, and buy me one of those chromed caps for the coolant tank and put it all in

Damn, it's been a while back since I've made my last up-date, haven't had a lot of time to work on the Polo
Building a new garage at home, I'm getting my own 2 parkingspaces, one for the Polo, and one right next to it designated to be my very own workingspot No I don't have to leave the Polo outside to work on it

But this weekend finally got around to do some things on the Polo:

Starting spraying the centre and lower console:





And you can't work without this:



Check out the fog from the spraycan hanging in the room :


And finished this:


The two little round thingies are for my air-rfilter to create a ram-air effect, they will be connected with a 75mm flexible hose. didn't get around to spray my middle console, cause I found some little "bumps" in it which I first want to smooth to get a good result

Aint that smoooooth..........

cool, did this on my first car, though not quite as extensively, and in blue (eek!)
looks nice, you've got a nice glassy looking surface! i left mine with awful textures on it!
but now your going to have to keep the interior polished too!

f*****g hell mate,,,your like the duracel bunny,,you never stop. It shows in your car though fella. Excellent work.

I had completely forgotten I'd subscribed to this post, but I do remember why I'd subscribed to it in the 1st place. Nice work mate, inspirational.

Good to know your still updating it.

Miguel

top stuff
keep the pics coming, you are inspiring alot of people!

-Ben-

Thnx for all the very positive remarks, it's nice to hear that your work is appreciated by others

And I'll keep posting, but like I said, at the time I don't have a lot of free time to work on the Polo. I'll be in Newcastle for 3 weeks from monday (without the Polo ) for school, which also sets me back quite some time on working on the Polo

And yes, I'll have to keep my interior clean and tidy, but hey, everything for the show huh?

good work Jarno!!
i'm spraying some bits for my car at the moment and its not easy to get a good finish like u've got there!!

(although i'm spraying mine outside where i'm dodging rainfalls all the time )

Hey Jarno, how's going the growning of your car?

Weel, it has been a time since I've posted an up-date here

Reason for this is that I've been abroad for quite a long time, and therefor haven't had tim eto work on the Polo. Stayed in Newcastle for over a month for school, loved the nightlife Brittish birds r sluts
After that I spend about another month in Croatia (Croatian women are harder, but they're all fit as f*ck! ) And then went for 3 weeks to China, and belive me, you do not want to know how ugly Chinese women are

But after returing home and starting college again, I also got some itchy hands again, and started working on the Polo again.

Finally installed the last piece of my ram-air induction, the connection of the shielded Green filter to my grill, no it catches wind while driving, which gives it some forced induction and cold air only:




This is really noticable while driving I was stunned by the change in engine feeling, especially while driving at higher speeds.

This is how it's look from the grill:


Sprayed my coolant tank:


And that's my digital camera in the reflection


Also sprayed some pieces over with which I wasn't 'happy' with, I'm a perfectionist


And started with a new system for my shelf, to get more bass from the subs in the front of the car:


Also bought a Xenon set on Ebay:


H7 8000K, straight out of China, costed me 90 euro!!! I almost s**t myself when the seller in Hong Kong told me the price, in Holland the same set costs about 250 euro Us Dutchmen are such cheap bastards


But the biggest surprise of all has to come, I bought a second Polo!

It's a Mk2 coupe, with just a 1.0 litre engine, but this baby has only run for about 50.xxx kilometres!!!!
It belonged to an old couple, got a real bargain!





If I have any money left in the future, this will become a RAT, but at the time I'm still spending everything on the mk4

The mk 2 will come in handy during the winter, the mk 4 is getting it's own garage and workplace, which I'm building at the time with me dad and lil' brother:



And this will be the place for me and my brotehr:




Easily fits twoo cars, has got 1 electric door (with remote) and we're now installing all electric wiring. Now I can work on the mk 4 during the winter in a warm and dry space

double garage - alright for some!

nice work on your polo, as usual.

first time iv seen this thread and top job, not keen on how it was lookin at the start but very nice now.

good luck with it and also the mk2

welcome back to UK-P Jarno!! i see u haven't lost ur touch with modding ur car!! liking the progress u've made!!

well hello again!
nice lil update and i particularly like the Audi 3.0 Quattro sitting next to your lil rat hehe

-Ben-

Thanks everyone for the welcome backs

@ Polo-powah: jep, that's my "precious", well it's my dad's, but I love that car, an 2003 Audi A6 sporting edition, with a 3.0litre V6 engine and Quattro drive. I got that beauty up to 274 km/h on the German Autobahn, and even on those speeds the Quattro keeps it perfectly on the road, there's no difference in driving 260 or 120 in that car, just the sound of the wind


Also got a new "thingy" for the Polo, well, haven't ordered it yet, planning to buy it on the Motorshow in Essen in December (HUGH tuning event in Germany, like the SEMA show in Las Vegas):



New doorbaords with 2 16,5 cm speakerholes. Gonna spray them the same black colour as the other interior parts, and buy me an extra set of JBL compo's
