So I'm just getting to the milestone of owning Psyduck for a month now and I'm still super excited to own him. The other day the weather was nice enough for a bath, so my boyfriend took him into work and gave Psyduck a bath along with waxing and claybaring...so I had to get some pictures.
No mods yet, but things I plan to do in the future:
-fog light kit (from ECS tuning)
-springs...I want to lower him just a little bit (any suggestions, I'll take them!)
-Wheels
and then probably other things along the way.
Lol! Both of those VWs belong to my bf's brother...the Cabby is currently in the works of being worked on/built etc.
My boyfriend on the other hand has a mk3 Golf w/ a VR6 swap (soon to have everything swapped into a mk3 Cabrio due to rust on the golf), and then is building a mk1 Rabbit which he's hoping to have for show season this year
Me, on the other hand, only have my NB. Prior to Psyduck, I had a mk3 Jetta but I wrecked it this past december Before that Jetta I had a mk2 Golf, which I miss, but I also <3 NB's and I wanted something with certified pre-loved warrenty
So excited! I just ordered the european turn signals for Psyduck the other day, should be in the next few days and I plan to take pictures
I couldn't allow myself to buy a NB in white/black/silver/grey...I told myself it had to be a color that stood out since that's what is right! (no offense to those who have beetles of the other colors...I'm just not fond of them!)
So, I recently bought from ECS tuning the European clear sidemarkers that they had for sale and they came in today!
Here's a glimps that I took with my cell phone...Psyduck is dirty right now b/c it snowed last night, but once it warms up...better pictures will be taken!
Since everyone loves photos, Today I took a photo of my driveway after my Psyduck got a bath, and some waxing! In one of the photos you can see my boyfriend waxing the front end. Sometimes he likes to think that Psyduck belongs to him but then I remind him who pays for the car...lol.
Also, the large assortment of VWs in the driveway can be seen.
2 mk3 golfs, a mk3 cabrio (hiding behind other cars), a rabbit pickup...and not pictured is a mk1 cabrio that's being worked on in the garage.
i love my Raceland coilovers. you should consider them if you can when buying a suspension kit.... Idk if a mk4 golf kit would work on the new body style beetles... :dunno:
but you have a beautiful car either way! :goodjob:
I do want to do something suspension wise in the not-too-too-distant future. I was thinking about the Eibach spring kit since I don't want to lower my car too much. I live on a private drive, of which the lower half of it is gravel/mud and although my bf and his brothers all have pretty low cars, I wanna only do a slight drop. But I'll look into them!
Diggin' Psyduck! Nice little touches you're adding to your little boy. I hear ya on lowering just a smidge. I'm still leary on doing it, because of the rough Jacksonville roads and the phantom debris that decorates our roads. I'm wanting to do something like this with Cup. This way I can lower her for shows or cruises where I know the roads will be kind to my girl.
Anyhoo, keep the pics coming as well as Psyduck updates
i like the clear front turnsignals.....it brightens up the front. love the snow pics too as we dont have to contend with that where i'm at.... keep up the good work.... :bigthumb:
I absolutely love how my clear turnsignals turned out on the front.
I should be buying some wheels this weekend. They'll be sitting a while until I can get new tires for them and probably until suspension as well...but no worries, Pictures will follow
