Spirit is a 2004 GL TDI with the DSG gearbox, in Sunflower Yellow w/ Grey leatherette.
Thus far, mods have been fairly light, and include:
BRM wheels (of course)
Eeyore's rubber running board covers
Blue & white Euro emblems
PIP wood slat roof rack (still goin' strong)
Chrome eyebrows
Chrome taillight trim
Chrome side trim
Number discs on doors (these come and go when they need cleaning)
Monster mats
Wolfsburg crest tissue box in rear seat
Belkin iPod holder mounted in TVA aluminum bud vase
Might be forgetting something, but so far she's just mildly modded. Will do more eventually, I'm sure.
Thanks! The first two pics were taken in Tokio, Texas, which is on the way to R2k (and is basically just that building, more or less). I've taken pics of all three of my retro NBs there. Something about the place just intrigues me.
The third is from Roswell (of course). Steph and I were exploring around the town and taking pics at all the old buildings/signage there. That's the (apparently long-abandoned) Roswell Motor Supply building.
Your New beetle looks saaweeeeet! Love the Flat Four BRMs, and the badges. EMPI rules, or at least they did way back when I used to read Hot VW magazines as a teenager. I always wanted EMPI and Gene Burg parts on my beetle. I was going to use BRMs on my car and go with a so called high performance retro look until I saw the Caractere kit and went down that road. Oh well, I'm rattling on see you around(maybe Roswell next year).
P.S.
If you don't want this picture in your thread let me know and I'll remove it.
Thanks for checking out the thread!
Here's a recent snapshot of the Bug. Feel free to check out my thread of the build in the 1.8T section to see how far it has come from almost being condemned to a junkyard. New headlight lenses installed today, gotta keep those eyes fresh!
After many years away I am back in the family with my new 03 turbo s. I picked her up across state and as I got to know her on the drive home it was so amazing the difference it was to be back behind the wheel. I also noticed some unique changes that have been made and started a shopping list of...
Hey all, meet Remy!
She is an '08 2.5S coupe with 125k miles.
Externally she is in pretty decent condition. There are several scuffs on the front bumper and some scuffs on the rockers but otherwise nothing major.
As far as external objects that are broken; her 3rd brake light doesn't work and...
