olethalb Posted February 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 exhaust will be straight through to one box hopefully exiting the side. i was thinking along the lines of cream or a tan colour for the dash too.Olly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olethalb Posted February 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 started to frown the bonnet earlier - well i welde a couple of plates on, now i'm not sure i like it but it's hard to judge when it's all rough and in primer (to keep the snow off the bare metal)obviously will need more work to get it to look right, options are;1)badboy slant over headlight and leave indicator2)frown and reduce indicator size to match headlight 3)frown and delete indicator completelysuggestions welcomed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Green Giant Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 frown and delete indicator for sure!! that would be cool!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stealthie Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 I never noticed this thread until now! Your working hard and fast on this one dude.Out of interest, what was with the revo stickers on the side windows when you got it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olethalb Posted February 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 thanks bud, i'm not sure - there were a few 'fun' stickers on the car, quagmire head on the windscreen, volks girls on p/s/f window, girl racer sticker on drivers window and revo stickers on the rear 3. needless to say they were all swiftly removed.LGG - i'll pop some pics of the polo up that gave me the idea later.Olly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshB&D Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 fire the whole indicator off!that'd look madness! but do you not need them on the front? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jowey Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Never been a fan of removed indicators.Small headlights already make the car show its age.making them smaller just makes it worse.. like a Kia or something.anyway some pix of said boserblik and deleted indicators Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jowey Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 my biggest pet hate of polo 6N's is the grille.If it had horizontal slats going right the way across between the lights instead of curving up for no reasonother than to make it look like the rest of the VW range at the time.Sort of reminds me a golf rallyesome quick photoshops.

olethalb Posted February 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) all i got done last night was to refit most of the dash and generally tidy the inside up.today after much indecision over the whole frowned bonnet work i decided to go for a straight badboy bonnetafter i marked it up i changed my mind and added 30mm to the straight part then go up at a slant from there so i chopped them downthen filed the edges, i was happy with the shape so i ran a seam weld around the inside of the bonnet and ground down the outer weldsonce they were flattened i threw on some filler, while the filler was curing i dug out some mk4 golf colour coded handles and stuck one in the drivers doori shaped the filler close to where i want itthen before i could put the next skim of filler on it started to snow so i threw some paint on to protect it 'til tomorrowOlly Edited February 10, 2010 by olethalb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
