Switched to some oz ultraleggeras for a little while, but went back to the stock wheels eventually.

a lot of you guys have crazy wheel setups so what do you think will suit this, kinda liking the idea of some porsche twisties painted purple :twisted: any ideas???

The grey wrap looks fantastic, have you had it on a rolling road? What figures does it make?

Never seen a matte 6r before, looks very smart! Purple twists would look awesome, maybe do the GTI grille tubing the same colour? 8)

Looks awesome mate. Tasty set of mods you have also. Looks like they made a nice job of the wrapping, always wanted mine doing. Was it expensive?

Thanks! I actually haven't had the car on a dyno since I went stage 2, I will post up the graphs and figures when I get them...

Thanks!, wasn't sure if the matte grey would suit the car but i'm happy with the way it turned out.. good idea about the tubing! the GTI/VW badges might need to get coated too?

Thanks! seeing as the polo is a pretty small car, it wasn't too bad..cheaper than the forge intercooler

Your car was sitting as my desktop background for a while! The blue looks amazing, honestly thats where I got the idea for purple twists...what size wheel/tires are you running? and spacers?

You could vinyl wrap the badges or get them sprayed with the wheels, it would look awesome :D
