Well done Mattster...

Keep it up bro!!!

Very good work.

Looking awesome bro. Im loving her. Dude tell me, how'd you get your mk1 crystals fit? I have a set of angels, but i cant get them in. Any help??

Very nice....well done!

Looking good Matt!!

thanks again guys...the photos look good, the actual paint job isnt that good. im just happy almost all the rust is out.
there might still be some hiding where i couldnt see.

the headlights fitted perfectly. there are 3 small brackets that you fix the lights to...do u have them???? my other car never did, they had rusted off,
and i had to make them. i take it the angels should be the same as the crystals. just make sure the light is the right way up...there should be
quite a few holes all around(the lights mounting bracket)....that way there must be at least 3 that line up.

take a pic of the light...id like to see if they look the same as the crystals....that way i know if its worth my while buying them.

Yeah they are exatly like the crystals. The guy at autostyle told me,that im gonna have to modify....MODIFY WHAT haha. So i returned them, and got some other stuff. Hows the gap between the chrome trim and the lense itself? TonyZ has the mk1 heads also, and says they fit,but ther is a gap between the trim n light. Ima try and get pics of the angels.

if m memory seves me correct different models got different headlights that fits different thus different brackets inside the buckets.

my first car is a 71 and the other a 78...and they both the same(except the one fender on the 71-that ones brackets rusted off)

there is a slight gap...nothing a bit of silicon wont sort out.

bugspray....is yr cabbie done? wot happened to the run??? are we still gonna make it happen or what???

Hey Matt and Bug...

R u guys planning a Run withouth inviting the rest of the KZN bug fanatics???

Hmmm???

the run idea was actually dubster's idea...he's now left kzn for gp. so...i was wondering is this still gonna happen?
there wasnt even a destination that was decided on.

SO PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!! any kzn guys keen, PLEASE come with suggestions. im just waiting for window channeling, but am prepared
to drive as is. maybe after payday????

Hey Mattser..

I have a few friends that i have "bugged" for a get together and run in the sun... So although i wont have an airkwl bug i will try and organise something for the 1st week in Feb?? What u say??

Btw, i have just the right Empi exhaust tail pieces for your car... that makes it sound a bit better and looks MUCH better that those pee-shooters... ...for you I make special price...lol
