Stephen's 98' Uni Red 1.9 TDI Beetle "Pepper"

Sully, the rear fog light looks great. Maybe this summer time and money will let me do that to Foxy. For me, the wife has the final say as it is her car

On a side note, where did you get the chrome tailpipe to fit the muffler???? I can't seem to find one. THey all say "not for TDI"

I think he removed the muffler and replaced it with straight pipe and that chrome resonator tip.

Hmmm...guess that makes sense then. I might have to stop off at Stephen's place after the cruise to get that done if I really like the sound

Sully was over last Friday and I think the sound was just right. Sort of a lowish rumble but not loud and obnoxious. Good, relatively inexpensive mod

I did the Mufflerectomy,,, and put the tip on the 2 1/4" pipe.

Got the Stainless resonator tip at O'Reily for $25, with the pipe it was less than $40 to do it.

Got me wheels off a 2001 NewBeetle (Thanks to Warren)

Honestly don't know, wouldn't figure anybody down south would want them, and anyone up north, wouldn't be cost effective to ship them...

Diggin the wheels Stephen! Your nB is looking nice and clean too.

You know, you could take the steeles and put some moon caps on them. It would be a fun little project.

That's right mi amigo

You could always have them ready for whenever you want to change things up for a bit. Just pop the moon wheels on and store the other ones for whenever you're ready to change back.

Food for thought

[MichelleRoze]

Well, I was actually thinkin' of some steelies....atleast would be a good spare set. I have ideas..... So, ya if those steelies end up needing a home....I'm a good foster mom...promise.
