Re: SP Beetle on Neckbreakerz
nice car but that engine ruins it completely.
It doesnt fit so they raised the bootlid to such a point that it looks stupid, then you cannot open the bootlid because the engine is still in the way.

Re: SP Beetle on Neckbreakerz
Did not have the funds to rebuild the original engine but had enough cash for a POS sound system and a shitty golf conversion???? and then a turbo???? these guys make me sick...
BUT, thanks to {insert appropriate term here} like those guys, I can pick up spares for SP's and upgrades for Puma's...

Re: SP Beetle on Neckbreakerz
I'm more worried about the tyres that are too narrow for the rims......
Apart from the eyelids, louvre, engine, tyres & stickers on headlights, its a lovely car...

Re: SP Beetle on Neckbreakerz
I went a bit euro style and had a stretched tyre rim combo on my Seat and it was no different to any other setup I ran before & since, just looks cooler..

Re: SP Beetle on Neckbreakerz
I remember when I was still in school... our schoolbus had it's rear tyres "stretched".... (but not to look sick, ill or constipated) and the tyre came off the beading....
