Talking TOD 2K12 Mods

Ok as everyone knows there is just under a year untill TOD 2K12. Every year most of us like to have something to show off. We all like to do out own mods to make our NBs our own. This year it seemed to be the the year of interiors.

I was kinda thinking that this thread could be a place that everyone can talk about mods for this year and maybe help out.

So let us know what you are doing and post a few pics and who knows you may get an idea of something to do that you never thought you could do and maybe ask questions on how to do something you didnt know how before..


I will start out with a list i want to get done.

Planed :

Get the clear front markers night shaded and installed.
Arm rest
Body work on the door and running board
miss bodywork (hood driver door other small places )
Paint hole car.
tint the front windows
finish my interior paint and color change


If i get the money :
Coil overs ( drop him down a little )


That is all i have so far you never know what else will come up along the short year

Hehe, considering how the past year went a good wash'n wax is about all I can handle. A real stretch goal for me might be a clay bar session for Pepe Jr

Best of luck to everyone on their own mod lists. I am constantly amazed at what folks get done every year!

Being that Cup is nearing the complete stage (funny right?), her next mod will be a new paint job.... That and just keeping her running would be a plus too.

Mod on Bugophiles... Mod on!

I am pretty much done with mods on my Bug but I am thinking about the clear corners for the front end and I am seriously considering chipping her for some extra speed. We shall see.
Tail of the Dragon 2011 was so much fun.

I think clears on the heavenly blue would look killer
Of course so would coilovers with 19" rolling stock

I love the euro clear corners. I don't know if you noticed them on my NB but they really liven up the front, and I think with your NB they would look great!

I don't really have much I want to mod on Psyduck for now. Well...I take that back. There's stuff I want to do, but I doubt the money will come up to do them :P

I guess by next year I would maybe like to try and get fog lights for both the front and rear. But I know that's a good couple of $. If not exhaust? I can dream! :P

FYI, the wheels on Cup are Falken Explicit Black 17" wheels.



I wish I had some extra cash... these would be Cup's new set of wheels.

Thinking of modding my '01 GLX into a 2012 B2 Turbo. Couple of new fenders should do the trick
