Depending on how far you go with the weight thing, you can ditch the carpet and sound deadaning, or even the sound deadenging and put the carpet back in. A huge bodykit painted in primer well add a good 45bhp, and 1 hp for every self tapping screw holding it on

If the bits are cast then id goa for some rough wet and dry paper to smooth it all out, then fine, then polish and dremmel. I found that dremmels work well when the is some polish on the surface too

I know what you mean, especially when finding wheels to put on the images and the light looks compltely different. I think the 350z wheels were a bit too shiny for the car :/

Personally i really like it, because its not the usual done thing for a beetle if you see what i mean? Like the stance too, and the slight rake Why was the other thread locked?

Ive seen this awesome blue vw variant (i think) around my village ( very near colchester), it may be a squareback? I'm not too great with vw's :/ A guy across the street from me has a splitscreen camper, and theres a house near mine with a few pretty nice looking mini's Other than that it's all saxo's near me

;D Funny thing is, i actually wanted banded steels on it, but tose were the only wheels i could find with white tyre lettering. But i reckon those wheels probably look better anyway

Make sure the exhaust has a good seal on the engine, chain condition and tension, and all the usual things like lights etc.. This may help; www.motuk.com/Motorcycle%20MOT.asp

Haha, sad to hear. The only reason i used that pic is because it was the only big picture of a standard early nova i could find.
The wheels arent actually rostyles, becasue rostyles are 4 ''spoke'' . I stole those off a mustang picture ;D

i'd keep the wheels as they are, it would be a shame to paint over the nice finish that on them As for lights, i think that the dark shade headlights and clear indicators look good
