Exclamation '67 Fastback GermanLook

Hello to all German Lookers

I am from South Africa and a huge GermanLook fan

I have just started restoration of a '67 Fastback and would love to build it into a GermanLooker of note...

The only problem is that most of the GermanLookers that I have seen have been Beetles

What do i do to my Fastback to get it to GermanLook status?

Maybe some of you guys could help me out with ideas pertaining to wheels, exterior styling, interior etc etc

Thanking you

Welcome Blitz There are some T3's on here that are GL. The common germanlook has porsche wheels, mono chromatic paint job, and lowered stance IMO. (these are the very basics) ...Motor's, brakes, seats, and the like can come later

Thanks for the prompt reply.I've been eyeballing a set of 17'' Porsche SportClassic rims, but here in SA they are ridiculously priced...

maybe a set of OEM Jetta BBS (RXIIs) would also look good...
Or Audi 500 Turbo BBS wheels
