Hey TJ, good to see ya postin'.
Those hubs do look kinda stock

I personally don't like modern woodies, but here's a link for the Element's woody kit: http://www.vwwoody.com/Products/hond...rior_products/ to give you an idea.

Zoink! That is far better then I could have done! Thanks! Yes, it will give me something to ponder...Although, I was leaning on leaving the color it has now, with adding the wood...
I am still not 100% sure I will do this...but I might. It's a way to go, that is for sure.
Some one else suggested to me (local guy I know), to make it look like and old cop truck/van deal...

Not so sure about that.

Thanks again!

How about a giving your box a SWAT - Military type look

15" ENKEI RPOJ-2 rims

They remind me, a bit, of old CRAGER wheels. Just a bit. I like the simple, RETRO look they have. Plus I got to keep the new rubber that came with the Box. I am not sold on bigger rims, and thinner tires. Seems to me that the ride would be a bit rougher that way.

It is and it isn't.

See, the back was all factory tint. The front windshield, and doors, are after market.

The doors really do match, at least to the naked eys. But I have to admit, that when I took that photo, it sure does look like the front is darker.

Even if it is, I like that, since I get less sun this way.

ill bet you tinted the front windows 20% .. am i right ...

the reason it looks like the front is darker then the rear is because IT IS ... the tint on the back glass is around 28% ...
