Ok This afternoon i got my bug going again!!!!!!!!! :D

but now i need a plan of attack.. I am currently building a HQ ute which is about 2 months off completetion, then i plan to re-build by 64 bug once the utes on the road.

However i am not satisflied with my car atm (looks wise)

And i wish to do something small with it...

plans include ONE of the following:

- Remove the spoiler and Redrimming / whitewalling it
- Remove the spoiler and Doing a off white two tone on it
- Detailing the underbody

+ open for ideas

Just my 2c but definitely remove the spoiler in my opinion first up. Then I'd say either get some taller rear tyres in the back, or lower the rear end a bit to fill some of that gap between the tyres and guards.

That will change things a lot. Two tone will be a fair bit of work but obviously changes the car entirely. Hmmm....depends greatly on your taste as one thing that will look great to one person will look shite to another.

As long as you are happy that is the main thing. :kiss

redrim?

maybe grab some stock wheels and do a cream tone wheel and a thin whitewall. you can do most of this with a bit of sand paper and some spray cans.

lower it as it kinda does looked even raised. some adjusters up front installed should get out of it around 100 if u dont do it

piss of teh spolier for sure

venetian?

It's all personal taste mate and it's your car, but for my two cents........
Put factory trim on + overriders.
Slam the nose down over a narrowed beam and drop the back too.
Put the wing on the above-mentioned Holden and cruise.
A nice set of rims will transform the look too..........
Your choice man.:thumb

ok how to you lower the front and rear cheaply and effectively?

The car has been de bumpered and the spoiler is off....

How mush $$$ am i looking at?
