Welcome back!Nice bug!

[mentalVdub]

awesome bug!

[MATTSBUG]

okay awesome bug...but you HAVE TO TELL ME...Where did you get the front bumper?!?!?!! I really love the look of it and want to look into getting one, but I can't find them in the states...

Great car!

I love your Beetle, it's looking great. I wanted to know how you went about color matching the inner part of your headlights. I've been searching for aftermarket headlights, and haven't had too much luck finding many, so this is the next best bet.

I really appreciate your help. Keep rockin' the Bug!!

Mattsbug | The front bumper is actually the US votex bumper which I then smoothed and reshaped a little to match the original Euro votex bumper. I also removed the indicator lights which are mounted up next to the headlights. The turn signals are now located along the bottom in the fog light position.

n2vdubz | When I had the front end of the car painted I disassembled the headlight housings and had them painted along with the bumper. If you do this I recommend going to a trusty body shop and walking them through the process. My body shop ended up cracking a housing and neither one truly fits well anymore.

Good to see you back on NB.Org. The bug is looking good as ever. I really like the 18" Trophys and the AWE Tuning license surround.

[Oyveychris]

Looken SWEET! Love the hood, is that custom with the air induction or did it come that way ? Love what you have done and the roof is interesting

[bugasm99]

the hood is a custome one off item i drew up and had fabricated by a friend.

[Red Rider]

like everything about this nb--its

[SMG]

What's the story on the front bumper? Did you get a euro one, or was it possible to shave those side markers? What kind of gains did you get from the exhaust, intake and GIAC software? Ever have it dynoed?

Looking good though!

[SMG]

Also, how were the signals by the headlights shaved? I am really impressed.

[heyou]

And speaking of turn signals, where are they? Hidden behind the grill? Your car looks fantastic, I just wish my car had a manual! Let us know what kind of gains you get from all your mods.
