Welcome to the org family

My first recommendation... more pics. You take a great picture; we need more of them

From what i'm seeing in the picture, your wife's beetle is sweet as it sits. What route are you looking at mod wise? Performance or cosmetic?

Ooooo love the photo!

Got any more? I'm a photographer and a nerd.. so..yah

I would say, perhaps some window tint?
If you haven't done any engine mods, you might consider chipping the engine, it would add a LOT of hp and torque. About $500 will take the car from 150hp to over 200 with a simple ECU flash. You might also consider updating the intake, and the diverter valve to better support that upgrade.

I'm *assuming* that your silver Beetle is a turbo?
