Gerry's Po-not-so-Low *Correction, actually quite low...

[Bono872]

Mates VW Polo. Bought as a run around and potential project if he gets his arse in gear

Turned up at my parents place the other night completely standard. We had a fair amount of time but little to no money. So first things first- I dewipered the rear and sprayed front and rear badges black, while gerard proceeded to give the current wheels/steels a coat of paint (this resulted in an excellent finish lol). Also had a few stickers lying around so threw a few on for a laugh...

After removing the wiper, realised I had no bungs around in proper fitment so Gerry had a novel idea and stole the cap off my ribena bottle. Superglued to rear blanking plate:

Back on with black rear badge

This was all done in fun- not to be taken seriously. He has some plans which consist of:
coilovers
tints (maybe)
pressed plates
upgrade rear lights to 6n2 version
and a few other bits n bobs too

Trying to convince him to get these babies:

Poverty 'Spec FTW

wee bit of update- Coils in and wound right down, Gerry took a notion so we all huddled into a shed deep in the country and sprayed the wheels in tune with the ribena theme...
Interior mirror has also been sprayed purple, the orangeness will soon be gone with either clear side repeaters or tinted spray

Apologies for the absolutely ****e pics will take some decent ones in daylight soon

 

[Gerry]

update

started playing with the inside. watched conor take the buttons and stuff apart so i decided to see what all i could colour code..

took the roof lining out and started it:

spot the hooligan..

took sunvisors and mirror out for another coat of purple and decided i'd take all the other handles off for a quick colour code:

the finished article

so far so good

 

[Gerry]

@ moddie - straight as in hedge cutter straight? lol

 

[ferrett]

am loving the exspensive trick interior mods ...coming together nicely

 

[worky]

Really liking that awesome looking little car. Purple wheels actually look well

 

[CarbonKa]

i love it!!!

 

[tasha]

LOVE it haha watching yous two put the lining back up was rather amusing haha

 

[anto6n]

the purple interior bits look great,was it hard getting the headlining back in?

 

[Bono872]

'Lost another ****ing screw' It had its moments lol. Thanks for the help Tasha(!) lol

The dark rooflining is one of my fav mods to the car now.....

Headlining wasnt that hard to do, once you know the order. Put it in place at the rear (boot) first, line it up and then work your way forwards pushing it into pillars.


My '**** for peace' shoes made an appearance

lookin good lads, car looks well too
