Mate that looks awesome andy more information on where to get air suspension in the uk as im from birmingham and want my e46 wagon on air. If you could give me some heads up would be wicked.
I loved the Polo!
yeah Max, its had mixed opinions regarding this. Im hoping with a bit of poke and a a choice of 205s instead of 195s they may look a little fuller up front? it was a very hard choice when specing my struts for either 18s or 17. if i had gone for 18s they would have had to been made another 20+mm taller, and thats if i was to stick to a 205/35, and then the chances of laying frame would have been very slim even with the custom top mounts. Maybe raising the turrets etc would have solved this but then i would be looking into more custom work, and funds would be tight.
With very few examples to go off the 'safe' choice was 17s.
I would love to see someone go all out, and get one laying on 18s though
Yeah rich at the time is was stock on boring standard wheels :/ really pleased how this has turned out. Has Nath seen this pics? i sent him an iphone shot which was crap quality, not sure if thats all hes seen
Good to see you here Josh, i was with Nathan when we dropped the 32's off to you. Car is looking sick, bit different to when we saw it stock on the driveway. Recognise the rims on my car?
haha yeah i really need to give it a proper clean, but mid winter it seems hopeless, believe it not it had been washed the day before these were taken. iv only only owned for 3 months so havnt had a chance to detail how i like with all the snow and freezing weather weve had
wow i wasnt expecting such a positive response, especially with it only being in its 1st stage
Yeah Brandon i know what you mean, i would love an m3, but because it isnt one i dont see the point in trying to make it look like one. i would rather work with what iv got, its only a 4 door 318i so you wont find any msport bumpers and twin exhausts ha
I actually prefer it that way. I see a lot of cars where I live trying to look like they're not what they are, mainly base-model Mustangs with body kits and cowl hoods when they're packing the shitty V6
Own up to what your car is, and respect and love it; people will do it in return. Besides, I like the way your car looks more anyway Sweet suspension setup and great wheels thus far.
haha yeah i can imagine. iv had a few people asking me too already, due to no one doing a kit over here its very hard to come by. like i mentioned earlier i havnt come across another in the UK
i think air across the board on any make and model is becoming more popular now, i guess its only time before the bmw scene catches up with the vag scene.
Indomi do you have a build thread or any shots? i would love to see how a bagged 46 looks like on 19s, from what i can see it looks pretty rad
RY2K i miss the polo so much haha. was my 1st car and my daily of 2 and a half years, i just had to move onto something quicker and air-worthy haha
...LuckyBoy i have to admit your car ha been an inspiration to me, almost a target if that makes sense haha...
haha glad to be an inspiration/target, I get pm's, facebook messages, and emails almost daily from people over seas wanting to bag their E46's so theres gonna start being a few more, popping up, most people see the price tag, shit themselves, turn and run to join the "bags are for groceries" movement because they can't afford to be as Boss as others... haha
