Tigz Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 <font color="blue"> Ello everyone just joined so thought id say hi. Ive got a 4 mounth old 1L Lupo which ive fitted 15" fox evo 6evos and dropped her 40 mm useing GTi shocks and Koni springs. Iv had the bumpers and handles colour coded. Inside ive fitted 2 12" blue nion tubes under the dash. Ice wise, Ive installed a Alpine 7893R mp3 player, an Alpine V12 4 channel amp, and a Rockfort forgate 12" punch sub. The girl friends getting me a oval scorpian back box, and some new style lexus lights. I'll post pics if I can figure it out </font> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shao_khan Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 looks good. Most of the guys obscure the no plate on a car when posting the pics to try to prevent people using it elsewhere - just in case. Some of the shots in the gallery are quite Arty - hobby?

Tigz Posted November 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 lol nar not really. Me and the girlfriend went for a drive one day and took the digi cam with us and went to some mad places to get some quailty shots. Those ones turned out the best.

Tigz Posted November 9, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 [ QUOTE ] how do you get on with the 1.0l business [/ QUOTE ] It kills me! Once the warrenty is out the window, im looking into transplant a 1.8T out of a TT. Insurance is a killer at the moment thats why I got the 1L.

Woppum Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 Welcome mate, Here is a pic of a polo with the 1.8T engine out of it. I dunno about the size of the engine bay, but if it can fit in the polo, it can probably fit in the lupo cant it?? And Here is a link to another converation we had about this sort of thing, if you are intrested. Cheers Wopps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz Posted November 10, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2003 From what ive read it is a pretty big job, but the hardest part is getting all the 1 off parts ie. mountings, hoses etc there is a company who offers a drive in, drive out service for £10k they do everything from engine, gearbox. Brakes and susspention. Still a bit steep for me, Id rather souce my own engine. That engine bay looks mint though dont it. I dont think it is a Polo, it looks like a Lupo from the shap of the bonnet and side repeters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woppum Posted November 15, 2003 Report Share Posted November 15, 2003 Do you think that is what the 'R' lupo will look like?? I hope not,...try with this colour, and similar wheels...if you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz Posted November 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2003 A lad on corsacrazy chopped it yesterday, I just like the mirrors, bumper and skirts. Im gonna stick with silver as theres not many silver Lup's about, and I agree about the wheels, Im thinking about a set of polished deep dish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted November 15, 2003 Report Share Posted November 15, 2003 OO sory i didnt know you were tlaking about the clour for you, i was just being biased. In that case i agree entirly. Your photoshop bodykit does look good though, espeshally with the R32 front bumper, and focus RS vents. Is that the one you are thinking of getting then??

Tigz Posted November 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2003 Yes mate, iv been looking for a R32 bumper for mine, but want something about diffrent and I think that is it! I wonder if I could find somewhere to make one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
