Re: 2011 Polo GTI, side skirt or not?
White is a very difficult colour to match! You can match it to a certain part of the car and then when you move the colour card it becomes more yellow or blue comparing it to other colours!

Re: 2011 Polo GTI, side skirt or not?
my take on your car:
1. Remove GTI badges on doors immediately
2. Add the side skirts and look for a rear apron for the GTi bumper or a whole new bumper that will be lower to finish off the body kit on the vehicle.
3. Drop the car and add spacers for sure

But rear apron, hard to find..
Will drop the car next month, but probably not oging to add spacers, as that tends to make my steering wobble..

Re: 2011 Polo GTI, side skirt or not?
I agree with putting on skirts. And then you will need the rear lip/bumper.
And then you might need to fill those arches with some bigger wheels. But you'll have to check after the drop...
You car will look awesome

I said no as I dont like any form of kit that size, I believe lower suspension closes the gap to the ground, not add on parts

Re: 2011 Polo GTI, side skirt or not?
No side skirts, no chin spoiler and no to the dirty candy white paint it was sprayed with.
No to the GTi door badges.
No to the wheel gap at the rear, they always do that to the Polos.
Yes to the car and colour choice

Re: 2011 Polo GTI, side skirt or not?
how much are the skirts going to cost? it doesn't look bad without the skirts and a drop and with the skirts it looks boxed
If you are going to drop it anyway do the drop first and see if you like it, if not sell the bumper

Re: 2011 Polo GTI, side skirt or not?
The colour is a couple of tones off. Take it back to the place that sprayed it and have them match it properly. Nothing worse than an obvious botch that doesn't fit into the overall picture.
