Here  is a pic of Freaky from a New Beetle GTG in Atlanta.  You can see him sporting front splitters (yes they are back on), euro emblems, replica Herbie plate, and clear turn signals.

Hey Freaky Beetle!!!!

    What do you mean "some show in Chattanooga"?

That "some show" just happens to be one of the greatest, if not the greatest, shows in the southeast and its fame is spreading to the rest of the country.

Shame on you!!! :spank: for not giving just a little more recognition to Bug A Paluza!!!!       :coolshades:

Here is Freaky Beetle as he was seen at Bug-A-Paluza 7.

A few new exterior mods:

2" Wider Projektzwo Widebody Kit
18x8 Mille Miglia MM11-3 Wheels w/ Yokohama 225/40/18 Tires
25mm FK Wheel Spacers











To make the wheels look correct with the widebody kit, I used a set of FK 25mm spacers all around:


A few new interior parts.  A Turbo S Polished Wheel and Dash:
