I hope this isnt a silly question - do the standoffs do anything for stock engines? My engine will remain a 1600cc stock standard bug engine until I can afford to upgrade it

Hi

I have a set of Hood Jax on my daily 1303, they really drop the oil temp on hot days and I feel that extra cool air makes the car run much nicer at high speeds. You will need them for the next motor so why not fit them now.

So Jon at Topline called me and it seems that JAZZY is ready to be picked up!!! I can finally bring her home!!
Here she is at Topline waiting to have her new heart transplanted.




After I pick her up I will post pics of Jon and his sons handy work. New engine, new tin , new kick arse firewall, etc... I cant wait.

YIPPIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

Where did you get your front spoiler? I have seen it around but can't find a source to buy. Please let me know.

here is a group buy on superbeetlesonly

[shakajava]

Thanks for the link! Did you notice a difference in the air flow at higher speeds? I care a lot more about performance than look. Thanks again!

[yellrhd]

It helps a lot for highway driving

Allthough if you are running extremely low you beat it up pretty bad

it is pretty tough for scrapes but it doesn't take sharp impacts to well

[Phat73VW]

been kinda absent here for awhile so thought I would show some progression pics from the past couple years!

I love the last shot there, I've always been a fan of white on blue. Got any specs on the wheels?

[NO_H2O]

Sweet looking ride.

15" looks awesome! \They look kinda like compmotive wheels. Can you get 165/45r15 locally? I thought those were euro only sizes.... Smart car tires are another options.

I agree all the way, and yes, they look the dogs, still the best way to lower any car, especially a Beetle, is smaller wheels and tyres. funds permitting after the motor is finished for my upgraded build, it will be going down onto 13" wheels and kevlar hot rod tyres for circuit racing, weight saving and pan lowering at the same time...
