Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Polo looks a little too skinny... Wheel arch flares?

    I've seen it mentioned before in other threads, and it's one of the very few things that I don't like about my Polo... It looks too damn skinny!

    Has anyone considered making/modding something like this in order to fatten their Polo a little:



    Just keen to see people's opinions...

    Polo looks nice with a low stance and fat wheels to even it out. Ive never seen an aftermarket flare kit that l really liked

      what Timmeh said.

      When you get a bit of poke and tuck happening the polo's arse fattens out a bit aftermarket flare kits look tacky and $hit

          apart from the odd thing like wing mirror covers, cupra lip, etc, no one has really done it, other than one guy with his polo gti cup edition body kit, which was like $5,000 landed before fitting/ painting, or something like that? either way, it was a lot of $$$.

          as tim and josh said, lowered with low offset wheels/ spacers, it'll do wonders for the car.
