your polo is looking super sweet! was looking into those wheels too but i think im going to do something different with a set of Brock B2 super cups but still undecided as they gotta be perfect as i think your wheels make up the car! keep up the good work!

I got a few tiny little mods happening, all will be revealed in a week or two.
Next main mod will be carpetting the rear and sound proofing now ive took the rear seats out.
I also have some HID's fitted about 2 months ago! Forgot to mention that in the thread, they are well worth the money

I'm doing the 1.8t route next year
Gonna fit a boot opener from a mk5 golf or passat
HIDs are brilliant mate, way better than any "normal" bulbs you can buy, it just lights everything up so much more

Goin for the 150bhp engine then modding it slightly before putting it in the car
Yea gonna mould it onto the boot mate and obv get rid of the original badge and handle
i cant stand the look of the handle yet i still want the badge, BUT i still want practicalitly (beleive it or not lol), so i think thats the best option
