UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

As some of you may have known already, bought a GTi this summer, and it's been giving me a stupid amount of grief. I've finally been getting happy with it so decided to post some pictures of the work done on it.
This is the car that gave way for the GTi...



When I picked the car up..



Then came a very long roughly 3 months period, when the car pretty much sat in the garage having all of the following work done to it..

New engine put in
New Cambelt & Waterpump
New Air-con Compressor
Air-con Regas
Service

Then the BMC came!




Then managed to do black pillars with Sooty's help



Then came a long list of small things been done. The red piping around the grill got changed, as well as pressed UK plates



TT Pedals

Kamei Door Sills

Monkey

New Door Handles

Aero Wipers


Also got a VW black tax disc holder, and Enfig S2000 Aerial



Then came some cabling



With this..



And this..



Then came a 900 mile journey to Aberdeen.. Car looking like this Someone say wide?



Then these came home and got a real clean



Then look at the stance!



And then they came off for a while to have these on..

Those Lupo GTI wheels look mint! Nice work so far. Enjoy your trip to Aberdeen

Looking proper good mate! Keep it up!

It looks great

I still love these GTI's. I'd still have one despite their foibles.

A UK-P sticker wouldn't go a miss though, to balance out the "other" one

lovely mate, best choice of wheels imo as well...such a good stance with the RM's, have fun polishing them when it gets to summer, nothing like the reflection off a well polished lip

looking good max love the loop gti wheels

Coming along nicely after all that trouble you had!

Thise lup wheels look class...mighta found the wheels for my car for a while there!

very nice, just like mine :D

fancy sellin dem bbs splits lol :lol:

Thanks for the kind comments people, those BBS are not for sale unfortunately

very nice touches max! loving the stance with the wide BBS!

dam lol, u still got ya wind deflectors of the old motor? wat size are ur bbs 15x7.5 and 8s??

Wow what a good guess, no unfortunately I sold those and they are now sitting on finner's car

:P , do u have any probs with arches, wat r u lowered by? thats wat im finkin of gettin

It's on coilies, my guess would be about a 50 drop or so. Doesn't scrub until you hit serious potholes/uneven roads at serious speeds. Would say pretty much perfect height, as gets over speed bumps so easily too!
