Default M2RTXfozzy

Most of you would of seen plenty of pics of the bug, Thought ad show some changes I've made to the foz now...

When bought





Then a different set of wheels





Few with the bug




Recently added a pioneer app stereo




Also added today thanks to the guys up at scoobyspares a set of tein super street coilovers and a rear strut brace...





Got more things to come so will update this thread, someone could be getting a well sorted fozzy in the near future when this goes up for sale

Different, but not bad

Too many sets of XXRs in your household though

Imo the app radio is a quality unit mate if you use the iPhone... Brilliant features and only picked his one up off eBay for £80 so bargain too...

After searching the web high and low and getting knocked back by many companies I've sourced some mud flaps for the US looking forward to getting them

Paid £300 mate... The one I have on is a classic system cobra although the tail pipe is hidden under the rear bumper... Think I need to move the brackets under the car forward to get the genome to fit correctly of that's possible I'm yet to find out

If you go coilovers I don't think so mate it'd have to be a newage top to fit the classic coilovers if that makes sense

Tried starting the foz this morn and the battery was dead... Jump started it took it round the block switched off then tried again but nothing... Ended up buying a new battery so hopefully it's cured that problem
