Ok it shared because my dad bought it and me and my sister are learning 2 drive in it then will use it when we have licenses.
Its a nicer car than i thought before i drove a bug i didnt think much of them but now i want a Split window kombi the 23 window one i think it is and a Hebmuller and a Bay Stretch like CBB's Or Indian Auto's and a 356 Roadster and karmann ghia as well
Also PHbillet can u post pics of your red bug i saw it at the Drive in and would love a pic of it
how much did a pay for that?
Moonlite... 54 and 66 beetle
You also need a Country Buggy and a coupla Type 3s on your list!😀
Pay your debts, CxxT
Ok first it went bumperless but that didnt last cause it needed to be ground scraping 2 look good and since its not classic looking i put the kit on, less whale tail and custom side bits at the moment cause they arent finished yet
Now the person who owns the fat wheels should know why i want them
come on people u gotta have an opinion, what do u think? also i was refering 2 the fat wheels @ CBB, They are stock style wheels just wider, How much has this type thing sold for b4?
are those flared guards? if so, where did u get the rear ones? ive got flared guards on my bug but with the big elephant foot tail lights from a superbug (mines a 68) and seeing as how im going to be doing some cosmetic stuff to my car this chrisy hols, i wanna change the rear taillights to original ones.
its looking good! but take the eyelids off if you are putting a kit on it, and get some driving lights for the front bumper.
i may be selling my kit/bits of my kit soon so let me know if you are interested.
in the beginning, the universe was created.
this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.
Pick your wheels carefully.
You need to lower the front of a super to get t look and handle.
IF you are going Porsche pattern or wide at the front you need to get thin springs - which means a new strut set up.
You want to make sure the offset is right and the wheel fills the guard.
Wide guards with a fat wheel sitting 4" in looks stupid. A normal wheel filling the guard would look heaps better.
It is all about offset.
I has running 195's x 16" under stock guards on the front of mine.
My friend is running 17" x 7" under stock guards.

Hi mate I spoke to you and your dad at the drive inn night
I have the V8 kombi. You do need to lower it. It’s coming up fine, although I'm not a fan of the Porsche kits this is looking alright. i would go for bigger wheels in width and diameter you need to fill out the guards as blue74l said.
Ps: if you want a front beam that’s adjustable let me know i want $150 for it
Cheers

YOU HAVE JUST BEEN DAKED
don't worry it's a VW thing
Ron
pretty sure its a Super - a 1302
It has the wide nose.
With super's it's all about getting the nose right.
Look at Steve C's yellow bug.
Yes - he was running wide aero guards but he had the wheels to suit it.
Deiter Holzl is running 7"s under tghe front with stock.
That is his car in the V Force add in VWA - the green one with a selection of wheel's
Even ran some 18" under stock
Futue te ipsum!!!
Bout time someone said something, what should be done first lowering or wheels also what wide wheels can you get for a 4 bolt beetle? I Like The ATS ones, (similar 2 globe stars on XD falcons) But they wouldn't look 2 good on this i think, Also Porsche wheels are way 2 expensive for me, and it has a theme at the moment of the $20 dub, Bodykit and steering wheel were both$20 so i gave it a suiting name
Starbuggy yes they are wide arches on the back only about 2 inches more than stock but, got the arches and bumpers from CBB, whale tail that isn't on yet from volkshaven, have you got the side parts to go with the kit?
photochoppers required: can some one do a dechromed, slammed thing on my dub on any of the above pics, maybe with some low proflie tyres on some phone dials or brm's or something
my opinion mate, get rid of that body kit, run it stock but slam it all the way down, dannyboy67 on here has some porsche phone dials like u want for around $600 with adaptors, sell that body kit and buy them, put them on and roll it like that. just my 2 cents.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
One man's junk...
Just go the struts.
A nice sitting super looks cool as it is.
Futue te ipsum!!!
how much do u lot reckon it would cost to lower it? ive been told the back is easy and anyone could do it but i wanna no more, wish i had the front apron wwith the vent bits in it they look way nicer
Say $300 if you get some one to lower the cups on your struts or $1000 if you do it properly and get some adjustables
Futue te ipsum!!!
hey man ill take the kit off you for the right price
no longer undecided. its going 2 go german look as a tribute, hey call me hanz and gimmie a pint of lager and a bratwhurst, i no thats not how u spell it but i dont care atmo, do go makin gay jokes at pu expense either, 2 southern QLD dubbers, ill be living in your turf soon so look out 4 me
Yeah get rid of the kit and go back to the original guards. Then buy CT Hansens Sprintstars [fullnoise] off EBAY - currently $400 [a steal]. Then drop the front and the back and the rake of your car could get to mine. Check the pic.

squizy ur height is good, any issues while driving? and how much is it lowered? also if u have msn or something add me
It's dropped about 2 inches all around. It now handles much better on the F3 - doesn't wander as much at speed, however need to be careful over speedhumps - and getting out of the driveway 😎
