  • Bagged New Beetle from the UK...

    Hi guys, loving the cars on here, so thought I'd throw up my Beetle. Quick run down is a smoothed and modifying RSI Beetle kit converted to fit the Verts, air ride with Koni adjustables, Mam's with 8.5x19's up tucked up front (et 30) and 9.5x19's out back (et -5) poked out with 215/35's all round. Various leather work and colour codin inside (including trimmed double stitched headlights) and lots more. House of Kolor Tru Blue over white base.

              wow, that thing is meannn
              never thought id say that about a beetle vert.

              front wheels could be more aggressive tho... how come theyre only 30s? when you have -5 in the back!

                I wanted them to tuck and give a nod to the aircooled bugs that run narrowed front beams. Using a higher offset and smaller width on the fronts give the look I think.

                        While I can respect that idea, and think it's pretty cool actually, I don't think that looks very well. It just doesn't flow with the agressive RSI kit - if you had the less aggressive and more subtle standart bumpers that would look tits.

                        Or more aggressive fitment up front with the RSI kit.

                        But welcome to the site man! Always nice to see something original.
