What did you do to your Polo today?

[Bflat]

I like the skirts as they compliment the cupra lip well (or vise-versa in reality).

I would consider body matching the upper part of the rear black valance as has been done before.

[GoLfMan]

you might want to consider taking of the side-skirts as well, I think it works well when its low

won't really work well with the cupra R lip though...........

[noone]

fair call, I've adopted that look and like it.

[Bflat]

^^^ healthy understanding of differing opinions.

Keyboard warriors take note, this is how it's done properly.

I must admit though, these twists sure aren't as light as you're Enkei's unfortunately.

[Buller_Scott]

Jealous now!

What setting do have the dampers on?

from factory, for both front and back, you can turn the adjustment thingies an extra 720 degrees, so i figured that makes 5 settings.

for the back, it's on 4/5, for the front it's 3/5, although im thinking of turning the front up to 4/5 because it's pretty low, and ive heard some scary knocks and metal clangs in the last couple of days. i'll probably raise it a few mm too. given that the rears are only externally adjustable, i figured that 5/5 would be impractical for daily driving use, and would only really be beneficial on the track. but then, i wanted the fronts to be slightly softer than the rears to assist with turn in etc.... well, at least that's what i learned playing gran turismo haha (dont laugh too loud, though - i learned how to reverse around corners with a trailer on, thanks to the semi trailer missions in grand theft auto)

Nice work Scott. Are those shots of it lowered? I find that a lower tyre pressure (i.e. not 40) is better with the Polo when its lowered. If she leans, stiffen the sways. It makes some bad roads uncomfortable at low speed, but by the time you're doing 60, most surfaces are fine.

those shots are with the weitec "fail to deliver on the promise of" lowering 30mm springs, haha. as for rolling - none of that here. the thing corners much better than it used to, now. nice and flat. i'll keep the rear sway on medium because any further improvement in handling / twisty road driveability would have to come from other things like better rubber, in my personal opinion. turn in is nice - you can still feel some understeer because of the heavy engine, but nothing like what it was before.

Got me some new shoes!

Apologies for the iPhone quality (lack thereof), but I couldn't wait till I got home with the SLR.

friggin nice, man!

Nice wheels mate! Are they Stu's old twists? as with Blitzens, twists really suite 9N3 Polos.
Did you have to use any spacrs?

yes they are Stu's old twists. With a 7.5" wide wheel and an et35 you dont need spacers, they should sit pretty pucker

[Bflat]

They are BANG ON flush. No spacers here, gents.

[Blitzen]

Yeah, I'm the same with my twists. ET35, 8in wide, and FLUSH!!

[tooch]

That looks bullsh*t good man!!
God damn, I want coilovers and a Cupra lip now.
