It's like jewelry for your Beetle

Yep, and you don't have to go to Jared...............

I have got to post a photo of the inside of the Jap beetle.
I have a superior 500 walnut and a GB shifter in it...
I like the new look of the shifters.

Here's a couple of pictures I snapped after I came back from Brad's today

Looking real nice Pete.

Thanks, I need to get the interior installed, then it's back to Brad's for my narrowed beam

Is that a Dodge Dart in the background?

Yes, it's a 1972 4 dr with 42K original miles, my newest project

My wife wants me to sell it, though

thats a nice car, not sure I like it without the trim but the car is really nice.
next time I buy bumpers I am going with WW the fit on the uprights look very nice

Thanks, the Wolfsburg West bumpers are real nice, but it does take a little finess to make the uprights fit perfect. The chrome plating is top notch!

I have cheap bumpers on mine and the uprights were way off, I really want some uprights and am going to try and find some I can make sure fits.
worst case scenario I will buy some cheap ones and cut them to fit and have them rechromed

I had to open up the holes on the bumper so the guards would fit flush across the top of the blade. Then I had to paint the holes so they won't rust

its a shame that parts arent made better especially since when they were new they fit nice. with todays technology you would think it would be better.

Picked up some early pop-outs, I'm going to have the frames blacked out to go with the style of my Oval

Pop-outs are back in black!!

I like the look.

Yeah, it wouldn't look right to have one piece windows, Cal-look rubber, and shiny framed pop-outs on the Oval

I've always thought the same thing.

Visited Kip at Love's Trim, thought I'd post a couple of pictures of the interior progress

Looking real good.

Thanks, Tim!

Sano !!

Nice, I was just wondering the other day what the status of the interior was. Hadn't seen an update in a while. This car is going to be super clean. Can't wait to see it.

Kip sent me some pictures today, it's real close to getting wrapped up

damn thts clean
