That is a great looking Beetle. I would like to add a rog top like that on my older Beetle. Do you know of any suppliers for this top or was that a factory option? Thanks -Dave daveandtracyp@juno.com

Extremely nice piece of machining work Pierre!
I really like the alu adapter hats for the disks you made.
I would like alu hats for my ceramic disks as well, but the stainless ones will have to do for now.

The 7,5x18 rims are a very nice touch as well. I also went the route of finding the 7,5x18 rims from a boxster option (but with a different wheel). All others are at least 8" wide. Good choice and funny you ended up with that too.

You do the machine work yourself?
