Default Just bought my first Scooby, wanted a Bug for a while now!





Currently 278bhp. Am planning a few exterior mods before even thinking bout upping the horses. Oh and a KAD big brake conversion. Front splitter on it's way (UK300) , JDM HID light's (hopefully) on their way soon, will be putting a Zunsport lower grill (black) but am having serious trouble finding a JDM grill.

Would like to get some JDM rain gaurds and am still undecided on either rear splitter/lower spoiler or a rear diffuser.

Looks nice, your planned mods will only improve the look of it

Cheers mate, I will have to get some decent pics of it before I start modding it as I want to have before, during and after pics!! These 2 were taken on my iphone just after I got home from buying it!!

There is so much inspiration out there, the net is full of gorgeous Bug's all with slightly different tastes!! I like the look of the Hella horns behind the grill as well. Just a pain trying to find all the parts!! lol

I've discounted coilovers and run -50mm whitleine springs with KYB AGX shocks, doesn't sit too low so speed bumps never cause me a problem, feels nice and planted and others who have driven it agree, and it still has a fairly compliant ride

That said, if I can get some cheap BCs I wouldn't turn down the opportunity

Why KAD, there are plenty of other options some of which can be had for less money; I ended up with STI Brembos

I'm looking for a nice varis style rear diffuser just to be a bit different, but if you want something simple to fit you can go far wrong with the HT Autos offerings

I have got Hellas on my bugeye and they are well worth the money. I know what you mean mate, there is always a new part or style coming out. I have spent a fortune on mine and it's nearly where I want it.

I need to put up some updated pics on here with my new bumper and interior plus extras

My cousin works at KAD. The kit is £1680. But I can get it for a lot less, and i'm sure he'll fit it for me for a beer as well!!

And yeah the bonnet scoop isn't great but it's way down on my list of priorities at the mo, still better than the standard Rex one ;-)

Picked this up on Monday.

52000 miles FSH blah blah!

I walked away after the first viewing due to the colour but saw it again after the guy dropped the price

It's growing on me.

The Blue/Black Sti has the same light covers to grills as mine. Mine came from Edinburgh so maybe same dealer supply. Though mine had the cherry badges added.
