It's been about 9 months I've had my Polo GTi now, and to be honest, I'm starting to get bored of it being standard! Time to mod I think!
First things, first - Powerflow System, Tints will do me!
I'll keep ya updated!

Hi David
I can recommend a B&M Short Shift Kit... Reduces the gearstick throw by 40%!!! (And the gearstick remains the same length!)
Really makes the car feel a lot more sporty!
Lowering is a good idea too (I'll be getting mine done next year!)
I'm also thinking about a medium tint.
Let me know what you get done!

how much does this mod cost?
Anyway, get your Polo lowered...I recommend you get some ajustable coilover, 'cause only -40 springs won't make a big difference, and the handling won't be as good as you expect it.

Well ordered my short shift kit!
Slammin' will come next I think, by the looks of things though I think the standard GTi wheels will look horse when the car is slammed...to skinny! Need to beef it up a bit with a set of PHAT Split rims!
Anyone know how wide you can go with wheels??
Think I'll just get a light tint too, not wanting to look like one of the 'Nova Boys' now do we? We're much classier than them...VeeDub Remember!

ive got a light tint on my black gti and it looks pukka.
width depends on how low u want it. I had 9x16s on for a while but didnt like. If u really want it low and dont want to fiddle with arches go for 7x15s with a 35-38 offset.
