beige and brown is sweeeet... the car too!! i even thought of that gasfiller idea once, but i'm not gonna use it... but, it's really original!!!

and uhm, your car can't even get any lower, so why you bought those things? will that even fit with the hood?

He said in the Norwegian thread that when he uses them, he can adjust the KWs up a bit and have some suspension in them, and still have an extremely low car.

The bar is removable It is now in 3 pieces which I mount together.
When I close the roof, I install the bar again. Everything is in the the boot when the roof is open.

I have also solved the problem with the rear windows not being able to be rolled the hole way down.
When I open the roof you will not see any sidewindows at all

Yepp.. that`s right. I will still have 30mm ride-hight but I will have some suspension. But for show I will drop the car to the ground
I have to modify both sides in front to make more room for the driveshafts

are you going to remove the rear windows or what did you do?

p.s. when you have to remove lots of things it's not really for every day use... i really hate it when i can't just sit down and start to drive...

First of all.. this is NOT a "daily driver" It is a showcar..and for those VERY nice days

I am making a "snap-off" solution for the windows. When I have the roof open I just switch place for the windows and put them back on the car "upside-down" It will take me about 2 minuts to "transform" the car....

It is good that someone gives norwegian vw collectors and builders something to be proud of

oke, another point of criticism here:

why didn't you already cut out the metal behind your new gasfillercap? now you'll have to do it when it's painted right?

p.s. don't forget, i love your car :P

There isn`t a problem modifying this after I get the car back from paint.
