    • You will get a better ned product with a vinyl wrap, esp if you want a gloss.
      Maybe see if you like it using plasti dip and then get it wrapped if you really like it

        Yup that's the plan. I'd hate to spend all that money one vinyl and then not like it

          Now I have another question.
          I just worked out with what I want to do with my polo gti there is 6-7 parts I want. And approx what numbers I want after it all.

          Stock power
          Kw: 132 / 100Atw
          Nm: 250

          Power after mods approx.
          Kw: 182 / 150Atw
          Nm: 360

          Now that is roughly a golf R MY12.5 stock.
          Now I need to spend to get those numbers
          $9500 Approx. Is it better to do one or 2 things and wait to buy another car. In 4-5 years time.?. Or go ahead because the polo will be faster ?.

          What's everyone's else's opinion ?.
          Just wondering .
          If you want a stock golf R, then I suggest moving the polo on because you will never be satisfied. Also, $1400 on a tune in a golf R will put you in serious performance leagues.

          BUT,
          If you want a lowly polo that is a fast as a R....

          Tune $1400
          Exhaust $1000
          Air Intake $500
          Intercooler $1500

          Long way off $9500! You can also consider spark plugs and maybe coilpacks because they're not great from factory.


          Add DSG Tune $990 plus torque limit increase $250
          Semi slick road tyres $1100
          Brake pads $300
          Brake fluid $60

          If you want handling...

          Anti roll bars $450
          Coilovers/cup kit springs and dampers $1000

          If you do all of that, you will have an absolute weapon of a car.

                    • Haha! for $800 delivered and installed I'm quite happy...so far picked up two mobiles and blocked both of them (tells you're if being pinged).

                      • I'm to assume by "mobile" you mean camera - and the butt out defivice is a radar detector / jammer - or am I dead wrong. I don't see why you want to block out mobile phones haha.

                        I will say one thing if it is a radar detector, I would be careful that they don't bust you with it. It's a hefty fine first offence (1500$ish) and potential jail time afterwards. My dad got busted once and cost a fortune. After that he got rid of it.

                        They can detect some of those units in read mode and will definitely detect you if there signal is been jammed. Then again why have a high powered car I you can't wind it up here and there safely.

                        • No idea what you're on about Nomad? its simply a device to protect the car by blocking a nasty signals while driving not what you're referring to
