The wing mirrors are DTM stlye mirrors available from Venom Motorsport or FK Automotive.

As for modding your car, you live at Doncaster dont you? why not pop into JBS and have a word with them to see what they can do for you? what do you want to change about your car?

are they open/working saturdays?

and does anyone have there address handy or maybe a website?

p.s - Karl i need my archers knocking out 1st, my left wheel is rubber bad :cry: ,the mian thing that bothers me is the speed of the polo as i came down from a 206 gti *2ltr* so if there was anyway in making the car a bit faster , i mean the 206 only had 137bhp *without putting in a whole on block as it would prolly make it that bit harder to sell etc and make my insurance shot thru the roof * ,

also are them wing mirrors and easy job to install or should i get the proper boys in annnnd got a website for the shops if u can buy online ?

I think they are BSA :?: IIRC they are called the 178. Some people call them "Cobra" as they had a small graphic saying that on one of the spokes. They also did a 5 spoke design that was similar. These are old wheel now. The new range is all Hyper Silver finish (a bit like chrome)
