dorristhefox Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Hi guys,Right, I have a 2010 VW Fox 1.2 in Red! I wasnt very enthusiastic when I had to downgrade from my VW Golf 1.9TDI to this... anyway, i need to do something to make this car look good.I need some thoughts on:VW 14" alloy wheels to replace steels + hubcapsChrome front maskBonnet Bra?? (not so keen on this but open to opinions)Lowering it a bitK&N Panel air filterWind deflectorsWhat I'd like to know from all you experienced follks out there is if you think it would look decent.. and would the K&N make a sound difference?Also, any suggestions of cheap mods which would make it look better... I'll post pics at some point soon to give you an idea of how it looks CheersH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koop Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Panel filter won't make much difference. Foxes have huge arches so they need huge rims imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorristhefox Posted August 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Panel filter won't make much difference. Foxes have huge arches so they need huge rims imo Hmm... But i wanna keep the insurance low.... I'm 17 nearly 18. So I'm hoping that if i go genuine VW most of the way then I won't have to declare it? And I doubt the fox was fitted with 16's or 17's as standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koop Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Check with your insurance, some don't charge any extra for alloys whatever they are e.g. Churchill.As for actual options for the Fox there was a 15x6J ‘Mendoza’ 5 spoke.

dorristhefox Posted August 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 cheers i'll check at some point. As for the wheels, they seem quite expensive - any cheaper decent looking alternatives from polo's etc that you could recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koop Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Anything with a 5x100 PCD, huge choice of VAG wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
