          Clean bug. Glad to see someone building a later model. Seems like they get too much crap for no reason. Haha. Keep it up.

              well there are def some things about fatchicks that are extremely frustrating. big lights, terrible dash, but, i think the main reason is because what was iconic about the beetle was, well iconic, and then a bunch of fat americans made it....fat. ruined it with a bunch of american spec. I love my late model but, i dont argue when people give me shit for it....i accept what i have chosen ha.

                      did some serious work today. I notched my spring plates so i could spin down the rears another notch. Evened the back out perfect.

                      OEM





                      after notch



                      perfectly balanced from front to back, very happy





                      now my pan hits a lot more tho haha

                          Sits nicely except for the huge positive camber on the front (or is that just the angle of the photos?)

                            hahaha it's a narrowed beam, it's chopped 4" in to sit it low. if that was positive camber that would be crazy ha, I'd turn the wheel an inch and the car would 90 into a ditch ha

                              new shoes, stepped up 1" to get stepped lips, fully polished





                              happy with the camber, tiny bit of rub....so perfect
