Hey guys... been a while since i posted on here...been very busy with work as of late and working on the car.

Right...new additions are the coilovers...very pleased with them even though i have not gone mega mega low, transformed the car totally.
Also had some work done on my rear bumper... at first glance (in picture 1) it looks like i have just painted the inside of the bumper...which looks great but it has been done before.
So... as i like to be different...on picture 2 you can actually see that the piece that has been put in is carbon fibre (sorry for poor pics...taken with phone)
What are your opinions?
Also had front badge done in black, fitted new TV headunit. Which is quite cool as you can remove just the face of the tv...never seen that before and a new speaker upgrade as the standard ones are quite tame to say the least. There is a pic of the speakers but you cant really see them.

Also...who is going to the Gti international???
The reason i ask is that my car will be on the Forge Motorsport stand for the 2 days...so whoever is there more than welcome to pop over and say hi! Ill be the one in the sunglasses nursing a hangover :D

Heres some pics below...see what you think.
Cheers!

Ooooooo.

I love your touchscreen device :mrgreen:

May I ask what it is and how expensive it was?

Did you have to buy any special parts to fit it? . . .can you keep your original car radio so that when it comes to sell the Polo you can sell it factory standard?

Was it an easy job?

(here's your lovely alloys, great suspension and bumper work and I'm asking about your radio lol)

aaronon - :lol: No worries mate....yeah you can revert back to standard if need be.... that would be the easy part.
I had no adapter/facia plates with this particular unit....i actually bought one but then took it back. I had a friend help me coz i wasnt 10000% sure what i was doing but after he showed me its quite
simples!!
There is plenty of online fitting instructions tho if you did get stuck.

the honey comb fog lamp covers and the centre bumper piece looks awsome - where did you get them from
