She's a woman Barry.
Nothing can be picked out quickly.:P
I think Jess has decided on the mags, but not 100% sure yet. Plenty of window shopping going on at the moment.:bounce

thanks barry, can't believe how good she looks..
i have indeed picked my interior trim, have decided on a 2 tone orange trim, as shown in previous posts, custom door trims and headliner, undecided on carpet yet...the original seats will be re-shaped and re-covered in the two tone orange. the wheel situation im still undecided on as their is so many i like. I have also customized and re-trimmed my dash to be orange. :kiss I will decide on the wheels when my car is on the road and i can take her to dealerships and pick which ones i think suit her the best. I dont have many choices with the original vw stud pattern so i will be changing the stud pattern to a commodore stud pattern, plus i quite liek my polished jellybeans ๐Ÿ˜‚

That Bloke has done an amazing job on your dash pad.Looks like you are amongst some 1st class people-the paint job is the same.

You are dead right mate.
The Dash has come out way better than expected, Looks awsome.
As for the paint on the body, it will only get better. Its yet to be buffed up.

Now for the wiring harness and the rest of the interior and she will be 1 hot little bug on the road.:thumb

thanks nbturbo, i am fortunate that my father is very good with his contacts and has spent many of years building cars up to be great show cars , so therefore has built a good line up of contacts :P, i am so pleased with my dash and how great it looks. Can't wait to install it in my beetle :thumb

yeah the repairs he has made to the cracks and the huge whole that was cut out of it in the bottom right has been totally amazing. Can't fault his work at all. i was a bit uncertain with how the colour would come out but its so perfect and matches the rest of the orange components of my car๐Ÿ˜‚.And im pretty sure it will grab alot of attention as people walk past my car. :P

well guys not much of an update as way too many things have been
happening at the moment, things have been kind of slow because i have also been
thinking of investing my money into a watercooled car๐Ÿ™„ . ๐Ÿ˜€
I am currently waiting to find a wiring harness for jasmine, once i find one then i can get
the ball rolling again, moving onto fitting my interior.
We got a little bit bored in the cold weather today , so what better to do then muck around
with your vw. We mocked up the dash today to see what it would look like against the rest of my car.๐Ÿ˜ต We also put my new tail lights on my rear guards to see what it would look like. I was very impressed with the choice of my tail lights, i think the dark tail lights really set off my paint work.๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

hey donna,
not a problem letting you come out and have a little perve. Had to let you see her some time as you have wanted to for ages. Not that i'd blame you ๐Ÿ˜‚
As i warned you the pics just dont do her justice but when you see her in the flesh it's a whole different story.:P And i agree i think if you look hard enough there is some blood there lol, but alot of blood sweat and tears have gone into her :kiss. everything i have planned for her will suit her to a t ,i can't wait for them to all arrive.
Cant wait to see bluebell when you bring her around

love jess and jace๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ
