Default WTB: Crawler Bra for 98 Beetle

I'm loking to buy a crawler style bra for a 1998 NB. I have the $ and am ready to buy. I want to complete my look and cover up Ladybug's imperfections. I live in the Chicagoland area. Hopefully someone can help me out to find one! Thanks!

They both sell the regular bras, not the crawler or T-style for a 1998. From previous threads, you can get them for 2006-2010 but not for the previous years.

I got a regular one, brand new, off craigslist for $40. Still would like to get the crawler hood piece. Liking the look, but crawler would be better.

Bugstuff, you got one laying around? Can I just buy that part and will it work on my 98? I would think the hood is very similar if not the same. Here is a festive 4th of July pic I took in front of my house.

If you're still looking for the Crawler bra, there's one on ebay. Found it today while looking for a reg bra.

Hey Opel,

Cool center caps! No, sorry, I don't have an extra hood piece available.

Custom stock wheels. 2 rattle cans. I plan on going to a couple of the events. The picnic sounds like a good time and close to me.
