yeah they are abit to dark, but seen as its my daily im not really willing to spend any money on it lol. the bbs arnt even on it anymore as there now on the golf.. rocking std gti wheels now. only thing im gonna do to polo is get the rear bumper repaired as some arse drove into in and cracked it, and get the front bumper resprayed as it now has a scratch on it that cant be polished out :(... main efforts on the golf ;)

Here here! Looks a quality example mate, what sort of quarter mile times would you be looking at with the 20v lump?
Fair play to your daily being on it's arse too, dedication! :happy2:
