Ooh so beautiful! I love your bug and a very good decision to sell your 03 Honda! I hve just sold my 1996 Honda to finish of my bug resto, she will be
white with lilac/pink pearl
Just wondering where you can get those chrome looking side skirts from, do they have vents in them?
Anyways I LOVE it!!!!!

ovalTOFU: The front was as low as the back.... but the wheels rubbed on the guards so it had to be raised.  When it settles a bit, I'll see where it's sitting and hopefully (probably!) lower it again.
foxy_fuschia: What kind of Bug do you have? That paint would look really nice! I've seen a Beetle in Ringwood East area that is white, with a
lilac/blue looking pearl.... definitely different! I'm not sure where the polished steel sideskirts I have came from.... but I could find out for
you! |

Believe me, we tried to keep it as low as possible, but I'm scared enough of damaging the car as it is!! So if it has to be a bit higher to keep it
nicer, I'll do anything! :P |

Damien: I received the sticker thing today!! Thanx soooo much for the super fast postage!
My Beetle had her first service yesterday (since she's been mine, not her first service EVER!) and she is even better now! The mechanics thought she
was very pretty, and engine is beautiful too..... only thing is the heater cable is broken, and I'm freeeeezing whenever I drive! LOL
How easy/hard is this to fix?? :P |

Motors even? Does anyone know?

I've been to Mr Bug in DANDENONG !!!! ages ago to get the Altezza lights for my new bug and they were the cheapest by far ! I am not sure if they are
around anymore ? I heard something somewhere that they may have moved or changed their name or something ???????
