Arrow Hello everyone, 02 New Beetle and 73 Super beetle owner

Hi, I really like VW Beetles, thats why I have a 1973 Super Beetle and a 2002 New beetle. The 73 bug is a project, it only has a primer as of now. I will add more mods to my new beetle in the future.
Mods on the new beetle: Audi Fat fives 17" rims 3000k yellow hid low beam, 5000k hid foglights led tailights and window tint.
Mods on the 1973 Super bug, 3000k Hid, projector headlights,and T-shifter. The car came with the body kit.

Nice nB. The polished fat 5's look good on your car.

I voted to ditch the oB. Don't get me wrong, I'm as a dyed in the wool air cooled guy as you'll find.(Our former aircooled collection). You at least need to remove the body kit.

Big window cars have their place in the collector hobby, but not that body kit.

I voted to keep the SB You don't see many SB's on the road anymore.

I do vote to ditch the rear turn signals as they just don't belong there.

I wish some one would make those SB wheels for a NB as I really liked that style.

Yea, I will try to get rid of the body kit if I don't sell it. I wll buy the stock fenders which are better. You had such a nice VW collection. If I were you at the time I would of never sold them.
