Sim's Dub-Polo Project

[ghat4]

Hi guys,

I'm new to this forum & I have a navy blue Polo 6N2. Had it since Jan 2012 & still slowly working on it.

Things done so far:

- Lenso BSX 15" Alloys
- FK AK Street Coilovers (lowered around 62mm)
- Tinted Windows
- Front Gti Lip
- Gti Honeycombe Grille
- Vibe Slick Components with tweeters





FK AK Street Coilovers



After a good wash I fitted the honeycombe grille on & changed the number plates aswell. I bought some BBS centre cap stickers (from ebay), and glued them on with double sided tape & super glue











Got tints on the car & got the GTI front lip, heres how it looks now.....

This is with the lip on



Before getting tints....


After tints, light smoked at the front and dark smoked at the back.....

Looking sweet mate, Just wondering what tyres your running and how low that is?
Ive got FK coilovers and 15" ats cups waiting to go one mine

[ghat4]

I lowered it by 62mm, I've tested it and its not touching the tyres at all even over humps at 60mph, I might lower the front abit more.
The tyres are 15x7 all round, I was going to get 15x8 at the back.
FK coilovers are wicked mate and their a reasonable price too

Yeh mate the ride feels good, don't deck it too much though otherwise it'll look silly. I was surprised that the ride was good, I thought it was going to be s*** too.
How much you get your FKs for??

Yea I wont be going too low, theres a really nasty bump outside my house so probably going to stick around the same height as yours.
and I got them brand new off ebay for £194.95 or something like that

[ghat4]

Yeh that's good, I got mine for £198. Check out Venom Motorsport they have good parts.
