Default Hansel - 2002 Black NB Sport

My baby named Hansel. I've only had him for a couple of weeks so I guess you could call him the 'new beetle' in town.
Black 1.8T, manual 5 speed trans, and *almost* all the cookies.
got him and nothing was done wit him, so I listed all the things I've done in just the past three weeks.

-Depo black bezel headlights with Xenon balasts for the bright blue eyes. $200something

-Chrome trim on the headlights, and taillights. $130

-Chrome trim around the windows. $160

-Custom GPS mount (Thanks MIG) made into zune mount. $35

-Zune adapter kit. $160

-Halo projector foglights. $150 (not yet installed, had problems with seller on eBay)

-Cute Stuffed squirrel for empty cupholder to hide money. $15

-Custom rubbish bin mounted to center console (work at a canvas shop so i made it myself). $20

-about $1000 in car washes.

SOON TO COME - Tinted lights, maybe more chrome trim, 18" Konig Lace wheels, and I think that'll about take care of him for now.
Just so everybody knows, I am a huge fan of Scarab Y2K's black beetle, and am pleased to announce that he has some mighty competition... maybe...

Ohh, and I'm sorry for the one photo of him, and a dirty one at that. As soon as He magicaly becomes clean again!

They're called "Take 5" rims. They're 17" rims with body color inserts.

They came on most of the Sport Edition beetles.

I have them too, but I removed my inserts because they were silver and semi pointless to me as I could barely notice them.

Very nice bug! I like your headlights too. I'm looking at all the different types out there since I need to get new ones for Titan soon!

Btw, that chrome window trim is KILLER on the black beetles!!! !!!
