My 74 Super
 
I love the "German Look", but not sure exactly how to achieve it!

My name is Erik, and I just wanted to introduce myself to all of you. I am from Tallahassee, FL, and now have a 1974 Super Beetle. I have done quite a bit of work to it so far.

And this is how it looks now, soon to have 5% tint on windows! Am I on the right track?

So far I have:
Converted to front disk.
Installed lowering struts.
Stripped the inside and built my own dash, put in seats and took out the back seat.

And I am currently in the process of building a mild performance T4 1.8 engine.
(Cant wait for that one)

Sounds like everything you are doing is enhancing your car's giddy-up, giddy-down, and giddying-all-around. :D Seems very GL to me. ;)

By the way are those ATS classic wheels?

Yeah they are ATS! I take it those are some good wheels. Three or four times they have been mentioned to me. And one guy wanted to buy them! Are they rare or something?

Nice car.

Body colour bumpers and a kamei airdam (body colour) will transform the look of the car.

Smoked front indicator lenses and smoked rear lights.

:)
