Or revert back to standard nova headlights?

Polo lights are slightly lighter, but ruin aerodynamics which is something I aim to improve in future. Also polo lights are ****e and give crap light output. however they do give the car a unique and aggresive look...

could you not keep the polo one's for the great look but maybe make them a bit highter and cover the front in a headlamp cover thingy? that would look pretty cool and help with aerodynamics.

I've been planning to make some covers for them, but the light output really is pretty poor....hmmmmm think i may have answered my own question here lol.

Standard and convert them into air scoops if you only use it through the day

DOH!! I chose the wrong one!!

Go for the STandard Nova Items or try filling in the Gaps round the head lights. It looks broken

Polo bug eyed for me.

Its the first thing I always think of about your car.

Polo lights really make it stand out. As said, try a HID conversion for better light - made the world of difference on my Celica.

You could probably bodge up some standard headlamp covers to make wind deflectors too :thumb:

Polo lights for me too mate - stay different.

Your car look soooo like a MK1 Golf from a rear quarter with your wide arches btw, forgot to mention that to you - tis awesome the way it is imo

When we swapping cars for a week then?

personally, i dont think the polo ones look right... the front looks messy and seems far better with the standard ones!

Stick with the round ones. They look cool and are unique to your car.
