Default Lowedered my bug wagon

Have just spent the last 6 hours in the heat lowering my wagon. After several welded on nuts and a few knuckles minus the skin. I must say it has transformed the look and feel of my car.

Quite possibly the best £65 I have ever spent.

I'm over the moon. Just thought I would share that with you guys lol.

Now time for a cold miller.
