Right so i've got the bug and set about my baby this weekend

Red taped the grill only a u shape set the car off nicely to be honest

So i decided to spray the tweeters and rear view mirror too and modify the door pins while i was at it but there still too big and arent sitting flush when closed so i'l have another go tonight me thinks

while post pictures of work so far if anyones intersted but so far so good

really starting to fall in love with the car who would have thought a polo could be so nice eh??

only problem is there just not enough time to spend with r lass and my xbox 360 now lol :lol:

will update as i go folks thanks for all the great advice and guides so far

Nice mate, good that you took the effort to take the grill off! (I just left it on to add the red stripe because I'm lazy like that 8) :lol: )

looking good!

The mirror looks interesting, but probably would've been better to just purchase the Lupo GTi black one, that way you get the black arm too 8)

I like the tweeter covers, I may try that but leave the mesh grey
