No offence but rat-look sticker-bombed Polos from like 02->10 are the most 'teenager with no sense' cars evarrr. Tonnes of them on club polo and they all look shocking. If you want to turn heads drop it on coils and keep it clean. Job jobbed.
hello  :smiley:
Didn't think your current or previous Polo was/will be ratted? I hope not anyway  :grin:
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3

Both of the above BAD examples are awful... why would you do that!?  especially that MK5!

Rat look to me is about making car look like a barn find thats been slapped back on the road, or something that looks like it's from Mad Max... I really don't get shiny cars with rusty bits and mint everything else, what is that meant to be!?

Yeah that's the one Shaun!
Are there any build threads for them about?

The 50/50 one had a detailed threat which I found at home, think the polo was on the same site, can't bloomin remember where right now.
