Only thing i would do is either

A. bring the front end back a little

B. cover some of that front wheel well behind the front wheels

that thing is fucking sweet, couldt drive it anywhere unfortunatly.. at least not without scraping.. That is some serious fab work to make that car, yeah I wouldnt might seeing it with the front end pushed back where it belongs, maybe some smaller tires on it so you could still fit some type of fender on it would be reall killer.. Im always a sucker for older VW bugs for some reason, but everytime I go and look at them and sit in one, I feel like a huge dork

theres a flat black chopped hot rod style bug that came out to advance last summer. it wasn't that chopped, but still sat very low and looked badass. i think he had to cut the nose into about 15 pieces he said to make it shorter and not scrape

yeah, shorter tires in the rear and bring the axle back. The body lines are nice, but the wheels/tires don't fit them at all.

Look like tires off a semi.
