Thinking about colour coding the bits that hold the wing mirrors on, but not 100% sure, other then that i really like the standard polo gti looks. Think ill move onto the interior next, thinking about the following:

1) Leather Retrim: Black, Dark Red or Tanned.
2) Quickshifter
3) Phatnoise MP3
4) Sat Nav Unit

have to agree, it would look funny full colour coded windows.

How low is your car btw?

Don't colour-code the mirror base plates.

Lower it a bit more.

Get some Philips Silver Vision indicator bulbs from Powerbulbs.com (see members discount section for a nice discount).

Tint them Windows!

Ive just bought some indicator bulbs, they have been sitting on my desk for a week, cant figure out how to remove the indicator units, dont wanna force them incase they break!! :oops:

Its as low as i can go, my drive is really steep. My gf has to watch me onto the drive now and i can only reverse onto it. Its lowered 50mm on eibach sportlines, im really impressed with them. The ride is really nice and i cudnt tell the difference at all from standard! Much better then PRO springs.

Phill.

The wheels are made by Rondell and they where from a shop called Dubweiser, got them cheap. £245 for the 4 of them, not including tyres. They are almost exactly the same as Moynas 16" BBS ones, but 15"...
