project polo update

this is the polo up to date



this is my new front 16v bumper

the start of smoothing the side grills


smoothing off my side repeaters

weld up them rear steams /swage lines under your tail lights
will add to the over smooth effect

i was gunna fill over them with some filler just ain't got round to it yet.
all the lines must go for the smooth look you agree then?
thanx for reply jez

hevertime i have work on mine think that i should get this done
but you have to weld them mike or they will just crack

yeah was thinkin that might happen coz the sealant thats in it now has

ive done it to my golf, heat up the sealant with a torch and use a wire brush to get it out - itl really mess up the weld other wise.

Car looks good!

thanx for the advise mate.

What about twin exhaust in the middle like the lupo gti? would be different

can't be done don't think the wheel well is right there so it would mean cutting it out to get a pipe there its gunna be hard just to get a twin on it coz the towe point is in the way

started filling the tailgate because there was a couple of dents.
