Why.....

Aren't there a million other new and old VW's that they could defile in such a way...

seems like a 996 would be a much better route. Being that the beetle is its pappy.

Is it bad that I love the wheels on this bug?

Any ideas where I can get something like those? I'm going for an English roadster look
