I'm actually quite enjoying the exhaust bush in the background too.

Awesome.. I think the Citroen BX style rear arches don't do them any favours!
Title: Re: The lowest front on a Polo!
Post by: Jack3559 on 20 July 2011, 15:56: Yeah... It takes a very specific wheel and fitment to compliment those arches...

I tend to like them on 14" mattig steels with a 45 profile tyre just a touch of stretch and about -3deg of camber.

Sounds good, wonder if anyone has ever cut the arches back like they did on the Lotus Carlton?

Post by: Jack3559 on 20 July 2011, 16:08: An old mate of mine chopped his out and used a berg cup kit to pop some 14" BBS E30 on it.

Only to have it confiscated by the police and broken. :laugh:

Definitely not!

He was an idiot anyway... Hence the drug taking/selling.

Looks mint but if I had £450 for one i'd probably go for the one I found and try and knock him down a bit. Purely because it's a mk1, would paint to match the car.
