I love beetle builds. I need to pick up one of these one day.

So I was reversing the car out the garage when this happened, looks like I'll have to raise it up a bit! [IMG][/IMG]

[mart1n95]

I decided to take a photo outside today, I raised the front up a tad and used the grinder to grind away a bit of the beam for more clearance


Here's a photo of how low the beam is now and where I used the grinder. I might be able to lower the front more but as I haven't passed my driving test I can't drive the car right now so I don't know how low I will be able to go

[SheaMoose]

Hell yeah, looks good man!

[mart1n95]

Hell yeah, looks good man!

Since I have a long weekend and I have nothing else to I decided to spray my wheels



For those who don't know this is running no front shocks

[DinanDave]

very cool little beetle

We got our yearly one day of sunshine today so I decided to get off my ass and clean and polish the car

Looks great, mate. Imo try something different with the wheel color, because black doesn't make the orange pop as well as it could. Maybe it's just the pic's idunno.

I was thinking about white but we had black rattle cans already, I like hearing different peoples point of view what colour would you go for mate?

[Stupid Kid]

white

[Edgar.]

Ye white, or a bright grey. It also depends on what budget you're playing, but keep in mind that white-walls would lift the car in more then a few levels.
