Waddup Peoples!

Finally i start up again!
As some of u might, or might NOT know, my 16v Polo 6n got stolen in Oct last year, 3 weeks after movin into Nottingham! Bad Times! <_<

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

So as gutted and devastated as i was, I bought myself a mkII Jetta in Alpine white to get stuck into, however, 3 days after puttin on some Rallye sebring wheels n brand new spankin 185/45s on, a DHL lorry ran me off the road!! More Bad Times! :unsure:

(Look at the rear wheel! snapped rear axel= Writte off!)

So deciding that there is a thing which i called the Nottingham Course, i decided not to do anything to my cars till i left notingham.

so for the last 6 months, i have not even washed my car!! lol!

it looks like this!

Only thing i have done so far is put a CL splitter and a US/Mexican spec rear Badge!!

I have plans for it,
originally it was gone roll on 17" RSs
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

but then i decided to hopefully ride on 17" F1 edition gold LMs
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

but now they are all for sale, and i'm still rollin on sttelies and std height!

Coillies and some sweet sexy wheels are on the way! along with mad crazy amount of stickers, possibly some gold, and some woodgrain, its all on the cards!!

Thanx for looking!

Sergio

I really want those gold BBS's but can't quite afford it. I foresee this vehicle being a real squat style machine.

those the re-inforced adaptors? confused

i have 30mm spacers and they had same bolt on system, they are kinda dodgy. i lost a bolt having tightened em with torque wrench to 120N with thread lock. just make sure you use plenty of thread lock.

sorry to share my negative experience.

ALSO why have you ordered 2 sets of tail lights?

Jay- drop me a PM and we can talk!!

Reaver - thats the plan, a quick and easy trasformation, obviously it'll NEVER be finished, but i can get it to where i want ti to be all in 1 go pretty much!!

Manzi - i have had FK 4x100 to 5x100 before, and never had a problem, used to run them on the polo when i had the VR6 solitudes on, and used to drive that thing hard, and never had an issue! were yours FK?

as for the tails lights, it is only 1 set of the "M3" style, but even they are gettin a trasformation!! lol, nothin will stay as you guys see it!! lol!

Thanx for all your comments guys, it helps along the way knowin it gets appreciated! specially as the mrs thinks its a waste of time n money!! lol!
