So i would like to here what you guys think of my ride, good/bad/and the inbetween, what you think i should to to my car next, or if you just want to chat. thanks
Wheels and tires are always good. Here are some other ideas not really in any order except for the first one.
1. Detail clean the entire car inside and out and under and in the engine bay (use Simple Green let it set then take to car wash and power wash, keeping the end of the wand about two feet away from any part you are spraying).
2. Tint windows(you will apprieciate this both in the winter and in the summer.
3. Change fuel filter.
4. Put on Cat back exhaust.(Borla)
5. Install Neuspeed Cup Kit (lowered springs, shocks and struts). You will find that at around $500.00 this kit is a real kick in the pants.
Is this your first car? Why did you buy a New Beetle, and what are you wanting to do to it?
Congradulations on your purchase I hope you enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed mine(if you do you will never sell this car).
I agree with the wheels and tires. New wheels have the biggest impact on your car's appearance. What I like to do is look at other people cars that are on here and get an idea of what that particular mod will look like on mine. That's how I decided on a lot of my mods. Photoshop can also be helpfull as well. The first thingI would do is go with some new wheels and the clear corners. But it's like yelojkt said it all comes down to what you like and what you want to do.
Ok so i havent looked on this thread for a while so first of all, I didnt buy it. This was my moms car for a while the her and my dad each bought ther yellow mini cooper S's and i got this.
Second love my sound system too. i dont know the specifice unit any more but i will check my glove box for the sterio manual, i got my whole system from curtchfield, they are the best.
Third. i am a high schooler just now trying to get a job so i cant afford wheels and tyres i like, cheap homedone, tasteful mods
Fourth I am getting some racing stripes this comming tuesday. YAY

Ok so my last atempt at a mod was some home done tint. lets just say FAILURE!!!! it sux to work with, you get a crappy result. i was majorly dissapointed. but i want to know how i can smoke my turn signals, and rear marker light and my brake lights if i can. So if any one can tell me any ideas thanks
Just baught my first car. 2000vw beetle. Manual. 140k miles on it . Love it so far had some repairs to stop it from over heating but no check engine lights or anything is on. Runs well now. Learning how to drive a manual is scary but fun feels like I'm actually learning how to drive for real...
As posted in the help forum, my Yellow one engine is shot. I'm really going to miss that colour. Silver one is my new replacement so finally got the cars together to do a little work.
18x8 TSW Jarama Wheels, 225/40 Michelin Pilot A/S plus tires,Eibach pro-kit lowering springs, Audi TT pedals. Soon will be big brake kit, HID headlight conversion anti-roll bar, performance chip, and cold-air intake.:cool:
