UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

i've just bought a 9n3 coming from an ultra blue corsa like yours (i think)

seen you posting a bit over on ccuk!

my corsa:



my polo:


haven't collected it yet but deposit is down going to get it on saturday!

look forward to seeing your progress bud

Plans are bonnet struts to go on, vw front badge in matt grey, sort out ICE and future exhaust system


Hi andy what are the chances aye? Such a small world at times! Looks good man at least we understand the upgrade from ccuk to here

Progress stopped for a week as my gear linkage went which meant I couldnt get into 1st or 2nd



So got that straight into the mechanics, and got that sorted, nice quick job and well happy with it again



Bonnnet struts are now out of stock so no chance of me getting any anytime soon

Bit more progress :

Old VW badge out



Comparison




And on



Looks so much better, i love it !!!


Then got rid of my horrible sound deadening, makes dump valve louder and looks better underneath




Finally got a new windscreen as it was chipped to **** when i bought it



And some new centre caps as mine were bobbled



Also upgraded my reverse light to a Xenon ice white, makes it look cleaner

And removed my middle lower grill to show off my sexy intercooler

Pics to follow of these 2 mods soon

Looks good, just like looking at the front of mine apart from the yellow fogs, but please please adjust the bonnet

Yeah do need to at some stage

How do i do it?

Just wind these out with your fingers Shouldn't need to adjust the latch unless it's a mile out

Your a star thanks so much mate Appreciate it

Learn something new everyday

Removed my centre grill to show off some insides

Forge intercooler in her beautifulness

No worries, it's just trial and error until you get it lined up nicely...one of the first things I did when I got mine.

Update :

Bonnet now adjusted

Looks so much better

So easy to do, why didnt i do it earlier???

Reverse bulb



Moar pics






Got engine cover sprayed in colour code :

Finally got my tints done, was booked in for weeks but my guy has so much work I decided to wait

Worth it defo tho, always been to him, a good mate of mine and quality work

Also got my FreshUK stickers on

Painted my tow hook, as it was all crusty, and cleans up the look of the rear



Some new centre badges, love my alloys !!



Then a quick clean and some photos on my iPhone

Got a bit bored, so thought, induction kit

So my K&N was ordered

Before you know it, the whole battery, whole air box was out and she was in

Not forgetting the oil catcher, a free cleaning K&N kit, and sticker

how much was the k&n and where from?
