NickL's 02 Bugeye Build | Suby Love

[JPE16]

From a fellow bug eye owner, nice work! I'm looking for a forester as a new daily/work vehicle.

[austindavidg]

Like it a lot!!

[NickL]

Thanks guys. New wheels came in today, 18x9.5 +30 wrapped in 225/40/18 512's. Super happy with the fitment. I like how they're just slightly more aggressive then the Varrstoens. Should have decent shots soon.

Looks great buddy! Didn't know you'd done this much with this car until I saw this thread haha

Haha thats awesome. I dig that SF5 man, it looks so nice. I did used to have saw blades on my Forester for a bit.

Some new updated pictures.

ok I remember your fozzy.
the bugeye is looking clean man.

you do the head liner yourself? that looks awfully comfortable. I've wanted to do a new liner and was thinking of doing something suede like that.

[NickL]

Yeah I did it myself. It was super easy. Bought the fabric and then just used 3m 90 adhesive.

Nice man, question... do your front axles hit your frame? I like the yellow headlights on the bugeye, we did my brothers but then he got pulled over the next night.. wanted to do it to mine, oh well.

Im pretty sure they do on super hard dips. I'll let them notch the frame naturally though haha.

JoannFabrics haha!

Car is traded though. Picking up on a long lost project though. Look for a build thread soon.

Clean bugeye, really digging the Varrstoen's. What are the specs on them?
