Default Any Suggestions?

I have a 2003 Beetle that has the color changing paint in the silver green color. I have a few things done to it and I was just seeing if anyone had any ideas for my car. I have Wheels, HIDs, Clear corners, Tinted Windows, painted calipers and some chrome interior surroundings on my door panel. Any suggestions on what I should do next

Congrats on owning a Chromoflair! They were rare, IIRC 2,000 of Silver Green and Cyan Purple.

As an owner of another Special Edition, CGCC, I'd vote for minimal cosmetic alterations, but then I'm a minimalist.

I would vote for some engine and/or suspension upgrades: chip, coilovers, upgraded exhaust, etc.

Have fun with it!

Chipping it would be a great start.

For yours, I'd recommend REVO. However, look at what shops are nearby, it may be worth going with APR or GIAC if they're within driving distance.

I would probably limit my search to those 3. It's expensive, but it's worth every penny. After that, I'd recommend a rear lower sway bar. After that a front lower tie bar. After that shocks/struts maybe. After that, stereo?
