Oh right , there in good condition! just a few surface scratches not deep but with a colour change they would go anyway, so they would be able to respray a diff colour?

Got the new brackets for the Brembos now so just need some new 323mm discs and Tarox Crosa pads and i can fit them

Also fitted some new seats.





The Recaro CS fitted

Need to save up for a re-trim now but that will have to wait till sometime next year.
All comments welcome

Very very nice 9N3 Turbo!
I've been eyeing a set of Brembo's on ebay. I was oh so tempted, but I first need to import my clutch & flywheel setup, then the brakes will be next.
I love the new seats - keep it up.

I have owned a set of these for a couple of years but are for another project and it has killed me not putting them into the polo.
But got another set and was like a kid in a candy shop. Now they are in words can't explain my happiness.
Makes driving even better now and i just love they way they look.
I am one happy bunny
Why oh why did VW just not give these to all GTI's best thing since sliced bread lol.
Re: Black Polo GTI, 6 Speed, New seats page 9
Nice project man! Tis coming along nicly,how much money did you find down the sida the seats? lol
Red lether? full retrim? headcloth? watcha finkin? Or ya gona make us wait and see? I like it as it stands but you've just opened up a whole new can a beans with the interior. Be sure to keep us updated.
Did you have to buy adapters 4 the wheels? if so how much were they? I had looked into buying 7 slots or turbos in the past but the cost of adapters put me off

Hi Drennan thanks for the comments.
Adaptors came with the wheels but i didn't like the ones for the front as they were not hub-centric so bought new ones from Ebay.
Look for 5x100 - 5x130 and a load of results should pop up.
You can also find second hand ones on Edition 38 forum always good deals on there.
As for the re-trim nothing to major as i like the factory look so probs just half leather trim with red stitching and keeping the same interlagos pattern in the centre.

Have you tried sourcing the fabric? apparently its a nightmare, and vw charge a fortune, worth a thought.

Loving the new seats mate and ofcourse the Brembo calipers
The stopping power should be immense with those fitted on 323's
