Will certainly be eyecatching when done. Rather like the frenched high level rear lights. Accentuates the length of the tail and probably safer in these days where most muppets on the road need every scrap of visual information literally implanting directly into their brain!!!

Like the fact you are using the old lock and keys for a key ring. A chrome ring, as per the original, would fit in nicely. Challenge is going to be to find something to repurpose. Nice work as always Dez. P. Mk5 ('02-'08) fester boot lock trim with the middle opened up?

I like allsorts...i appreciate the work that goes into stuff...but that misses the mark for me. Front end and wheels really ruin it but it certainly is an eyecatching moggy.

I pass this sad old Bug in Bridgend occasionally; I think the owner is more in love with the idea of owning a Beetle than the reality of owning one. It has barely covered a thousand miles over the past 14 years and has had a couple of spectacularly catastrophic MOT failures. Having driven one i can understand why!

Add in a few ultra fine wiper scratches , sheer hell. And all that was before the damned thing was even turned on. Used to turn my view into some kind of distorted , absinth induced haze!

Sorry...evolution has given me opposing thumbs for a reason....to grip the wheel properly. On the queens highway there is no reason to not hold the wheel firmly. On the banger circuit you soon learn to unlearn the habit though!! Nobody said "hold it gently"! Entirely possible to hold the wheel very firmly indeed as your fingers and thumbs are squeezing against each other. You stick with your opposing thumbs, I'll use my opposable ones! Kidding!!! They are opposing...one on the left hand..one on the right!

Something like this? So thumbs aren't inside the wheel to catch on spokes if you hit a kerb/pothole/angry badger or if you have a steering or suspension failure. Maybe that answers the earlier question about rim thickness? So people with longer fingers can't wrap them round the rim and get caught in similar situations?
