Default Wolfe and Sue's '98 White TDI, "Bugsy McLove"

We purchased this car in December of 2009 as our first VW. Gas prices in my landscaping truck were killing us, and Sue needed a winter vehicle as she rides her motorcycle the other 3 seasons of the year. A TDI seemed the logical choice to keep our fuel costs down, and a white one was a must for me to be able to put my company graphics on it.



Very clean for 297,000 Km (not miles)

Default Concept for company graphics

Here's the concept drawings for the graphics package, plus a pic of my truck that already has the graphics on it.

We got a couple of simple mods done today.

Added clear front signals. Driver's side is done to compare against the original on the passenger side.




Changed out the rear marker lenses for clears.

Driver's side is done to compare against the original on the passenger side.




Added Ventshades and chrome door handle scuff guards.




It's all about the details. Smiley face daisy chrome valve stem covers...




Peace taillight covers installed. I know, I know... cliche. But because this is going to be a company vehicle for Peace, Love, and Landscaping, it is fitting.



Headlight Eyelids go on in the morning, and we're still waiting for the rear spoiler and splash guards to arrive.

Pics to follow

Our spoiler, mud flaps, and eyebrows are finally here.

As soon as I can get the spoiler painted it'll be on. The other stuff will be on this weekend. More pics soon.
