bored so thought id show you all my recently sold car from the start
first of all...the reason i started searching for a 3door silver polo lol this picture here that i found on corsasport ages ago !!
i was only wanting a 1.0 or a 1.4, but came across a gti and could get insured for the same price of my quicksilver i sold
standard
mm cant beat v dub dials
got some 15" alloys, 7" wide on the front and 8" wide at the back, as you can see, it was riding in the sky, but i could see potentiol even if no one else could lol, they had horrible 50profile tyres on aswell ergh !!
i then bought myself some fk highsport coilovers from venom motorsport which were mint fitted them with a few mates and saved mysef £200!!
got another mate to spray my splitter and i also got silver porshe center caps, which look alot better than the standard black ones
put it in the vw festival on show with the massive tyres !!! which i was embarresed of
random pic of the engine to show how clean it was for a car thats done 117k!!
then finally !! after blowing alot of money on wheels and coils, i had enought for new tyres, just used the 50s till they wore down because they were new !
i got 195 45s all around, this ment i could go lower as u can see
OOPS !! hit a curb lolol guttttted !
so i sold these rims and got some bbs rims off a mate, for .... £80 !!!! with tyres!! they were abit nackered but better then wot i had lol. I had to raise the car up abit because these were 16" and it was lowered 110mm on the 15s, the 16s couldnt handle it that low lol.
a mate did a lil photoshoot well, a video shoot for his collage work, the car was lowww then !!
practicing with the new camera mount on the new rims lol
oh ye ... thanks old lady .... she ran out infront of me and i skidded into her, sent her in the air and her dog. was right outside of a cop station and had proof i wasnt speeding, the only bad things where the lady had a broken leg and i had a £450 bill on my hands to deal with
so once i got that all sorted i got the camber sorted because as you can see, it was fooked. And i also lowered it another 20mm again and got all the arches rolled
im gettin bored of typing all this now lol ...
the car was up forsale and was struggling to sell, thought id better make it look abit nicer, instead of selling with curbed and peeling rims.
started to refurb my rims with a few mates. did them black with a polished lip, and fcuk me, dont polish things yourself, its a nightmare !!!
a photoshop...
i liked it so cracked on with it
was getting abit bored so i added some graphics to it, even tho i HATE stickers on cars lol i thought i might aswell try
just to add to it, i whacked on a black roof looked kinda cool with the other black details i thought
that it really sold it and made £900 on it!!
cheers for looking and reading, sorry for talking crap lol!!
Carl.
