So, I just got my first beetle. 1.8t 5spd. Ive owned tons of VWs, but this is my first beetle. Kinda thinking I should have gotten a turbo s... haha. So far I like it a lot though. I'm having it chipped next week. Hopefully I'll be a little happier with performance then. Anyway here are a few pictures.

I'm pretty sure I've seen your car around the MkiV forums on the 'Tex. I don't go to that section often, but I recognize it.

Congrats on the Bug and welcome to the Org

Congrats! Let us know how chip works and details on which chip from where. Maybe it will stop me from thinking about a chip and move me into having one. YEA!

awesome thanks for the link! id love to see my beetle dropped on some aristos....or audi monoblocks. mmm! i'm trying to keep it tame with the color but its going to be tough haha. i originally got a cool white one because i was going to have it graffitied also but its kinda growing on me. :] i dont see too many around here. Oh, where did you get your eyelids?
