WTB ROOF RACK 4 BEETLE

Hi ladies and lads,

Turns out after selling my RAT I'm back in the seat again with another typ1 beetle (more origional) which screams potential.

Only this time I'm missing a roof rack to finish the overall look off. I would prefer a more origional/rattier looking one then a brand spanka shiny chrome one but hey.....I will take a look and consider all.

Oh yeah.... before I go I would also like to find a pair of widened wide 5's if possible

Cheers!

Do they need timber slats??

up to you.

The timber when it is all shiney and clean looks the goods on some cars, but other people are more keen on rough looking.

So you can choose to lay timber or paint, or just leave. There are 5 lower members, so stuff tends to stay in there.
