Hey everyone,

I'm looking at buying a beetle that needs a bit of work. While I have owned one before I have never done any mods to the car other then what was necessary e.g. oil, tires and a good spit and polish every now and then.

How much would I be looking at if I wanted a decent paint job?

How much would I be looking at if I needed to redo the seats, carpet, headlining?

Well if you live in Perth it will be half the price that we pay in Sydney :P:P:P

Headliner cost me $300
Carpets cost $450

paint job first try and find a shop thats interested in doing the job i just saw a Beetle done for 5K
