    Looking really nice there. Definitely sets it apart from the others around Canberra.

    On a completely off topic side note, the street and houses all looked really similar to an area I used to live in. Decided to check Google Streetview to see if I was right. Funny thing, I was right. If you check Streetview that maroon car is there and someone walking out of the house with a bag (might be you?) Need to get Google to come back out so they can have your GTI out the front

    Looks great - certainly adds some aggression to the otherwise fairly non-confrontational Polo GTI design. Look forward to seeing it driving around town sometime.

    I didn't realise the guys at J Racing worked on VWs - I was parked next to their modified C63 at German Autofest last year and was very impressed with the quality of their work, especially the wheel arch extensions which looked exactly as if the car had left the factory that way.

    Thanks bro. The C63 belongs to Jerry, it's very nicely done. Should see the real carbonfibre he has on and in the car.
    They work on all cars, Jerry is getting more into Euro cars these days.

    I'm with you dave.

    Also don't like how the stock wheels get lost when the car is lowered too much at the rear and the wheels looks too far forwards, but that's just me

    Good on you for having a go though and having an individual car I just wish Reiger did the whole front bumper as a replacement, not glue-on parts.
