What have you done with your Polo so far (and today)

[JonW]

I havent looked, but maybe the price on the site is inclusive of VAT @ 20%?

[BLN355]

Email him, the price on their site includes VAT. They were about $550pounds for us.

How? Arent they like 800 pounds on their website?

Looks great Nick - thanks for the info via PM.

Damn that's good! Should of just paid the extra and got kw coils instead of my h&r springs

here are some pics of my H&R 25/40 springs

[fastlane]

25/40's also.

Tried out the black tails, white rear badge/reflectors.

Lowered polo's look so much fatter at the rear. Look awesome lowered.

How does she drive compared to stock suspension?

Are these halogen or LED? They look awesome, where did you score them?

[fastlane]

Only halogen ill0gitech No LED's at this stage. It'll be custom most likely.

They are from eBay from germany. Genuine, and they only order from VW when you order. Does need a little modding which I can help out if anyone buys them.

Bassik, honestly they drive just like my old car that was on coilovers (8kgF/6kgR). I chose springs as I thought they would be a little more comfortable. Reading from a few others, it looks like the KW's are far better than H&R springs for comfort so if you have the extra 700 bucks, do that instead!

But I'm extremely happy nonetheless. Handles like a go kart LOL

Mods still in garage;
Paint the other set of 17" GTi stockies a darkish grey
Install auto lights/footwells
Install front lip

[Bassik]

Yeah I think I saw you write somewhere that you wish you got the KW's? How much they setting back? I really don't wanna much around to much with the suspension as I'm enjoying the comfort ride at the moment but also really want that train track kinda handling as well. I'd love to test one out before purchasing!!!

Looking at your future mods
I saw an awesome grey metallic paint on these a few posts back. I wanna get that done as well I just can't get the money up... really need to sell my old car.
How are you doing the auto lights... have you Xenons? Be good to see the progress buddy!

[BLN355]

Looks awesome mate, they need wheel spacers for the full fat rear end look though.
Love the blacked out tails, might have to get some myself.

25/40's also.

Well BLN355 mentioned around $950 Landed, which is so cheap for high quality coilovers. If you were in Melbourne I'd take you for a spin. But if you don't want to loose comfort, then don't lower it or go the KW's LOL

Yeah I bought a set of ****ty stockies that I'll probably have a shop paint for me. I'll let you know prices but I'd budget for $500 to $700 IMO. Yeah got Xenon's so got the kufatec kit.

Cheers mate, same to you too! Maybe someone around your area would be willing to take you for a spin?

Do agree with you BLN355, rear wheels just get lost in those arches! If only it wasn't illegal..

Thanks buddy....

Yeah if anyones willing in the SYD area hit me up.

Spacers... really illegal who's gunna know!!!?

[ATYPIC]

Unless there's driver stupidity involved or your car sounds like its got a HKS SSQ blowoff installed, the likeliness of getting pulled over in a polo and inspected for wheel spacers is just so minimal.

[gavs]

or when a wheel bolt sheers off.....

[JexL]
