| Hi guys, Just a few pics of some progress with the polo, mostly 'student budget' mods so nothing major yet but its getting there. The pics I put in my 'New Guys' post were from before it was lowered so some new stuff here, although its not massively low, coz of the budget . Mods are: 12" Fli Active Sub lowered 30mm on Eibach springs Red tinted rear lights Wind deflectors Debadged 'Polo' and '1.2' off bootlid Some stickers and stickerbombed petrol cap. This was it before any lows but with red tinted rear lights and slightly debadged: And this is it after lows, I stuggled to get a pic where it looks low its only 30mm but having had the car 2 years before it was lowered it seems good to me, also wind deflectors yo Then some more recent stuff, audi wheels bought but still shod with A3 tyres so saving for low pro's at the moment. Also want to paint the centres of these black leaving the lip as it is However this is as far as I've got with that... cheeky dice Then I got a bit stickerhappy all free mag stuff but looking into getting some stickerbomb books as have some other suprise bits planned Sorry for the pic heavy post, but thats probably gonna be it for a while, as I'm back at uni (in Aber) and car is at home also I no longer have part time work so budget is shrinking all the time. Still some more stickerbombing plans for the next few weeks hopefully.

| I know yeah needs lots more lows but I'm gonna wait til I'm 21 at the beginning of next year when hopefully my insurance will come down a bit. Then I'll be swapping the springs for coilies if all goes to plan. Then it will get slammed. | |

| Right time for a long overdue photo update, done a few little bits like black badges to hopefully tie in with the black pepperpots when I can eveeentually afford their tyres. Also the stickerbombing has been continuing in full effect Black badges: Wheels painted, but need re-doing after my sh*t attempt at masking the lips also not sure whether to paint the centre caps (behind the audi badges) or just leave them off The dash centre before I got carried away: And after... | |

| cheers guys, and sith yeah its getting washed a bit more regularly now when im at uni it stays at home unwashed:( also yeah im not too sure about the stickers now having lived with them for a bit but theyre only stickers so easy enough process to undo
Crease- yeah i toyed with the idea of brighter wheels, would go better with the stickerbomb theme but as i said bit unsure about that at the moment but think black will tie in nicely with the badges and in the long term thinking of getting the roof done in black. Althought he wheels are only rattle canned and laquered so colour change isnt too difficult:P | |

And finished looks like it came out the factory with it on I think which is exactly what I wanted And a bonus extra pic of the polo looking lower than usual for some reason, can you see the scooby?! no you can't its camouflaged LOL | |
