Polo Picture Thread

You've got a very nice ride there. Really like the bodykit, I was thinking of getting something just like yours.

The white (& red for that matter) look much better with colour-coded skirts all around. To me, black skirts on non-black models don't make the car look as lowered/planted as the all black model does, which is a major reason why black is my preference at this stage + it "hides" the less aggressive aspects of the Polos design better than white or red imo.

Anyone know how much colour-coded front/back/side skirts are in Australia? & are they decent quality? ie, wont damage easily. Can the dealer do them at all? (something I forgot to ask when I went for a test drive).

Don't think there are any colour coded skirts from VW in Aus there is a front lip you can get but i think thats it, the ones on Jayrods are aftermaket.

you can get you standard skirts painted for around 300-500 bucks but thats with the texture left on them.

Hey guys, thanks for the comments. Whubbsie, all parts of the kit are from VW South Africa, even the wheels. Ordered it from the dealership that way. I think the kit goes for around 7000 S.A Rand. Better off with OEM for fitment, and it's plastic so its slightly flexible.

I'm sure they have an Australian equivalent?

Thought I'd post something a little different. A MK1 Polo I photographed in a museum in Munich. Very retro cool.

;-) She's about 160cm! I think the Polo has the suspension locked open for display and storage, so it's sitting a little tall (but yep, now that you mention it, it does look odd...)
