here are some long overdue progress pics of the beetle. i've been quite busy with work and school. or should i say school and school since im working and studying as a teacher. anyways, i've taken some time to put the rear bumper together along with the exhaust. bear with me on the pictures, i know that things may seem a bit out of alignment, but nothing is permanently attached yet. it took a good three hours to do what you see in the pictures below but i think it came out pretty good. i took out the spare tire and placed a piece of styrene. i cut off the original muffler, extended the pipe a bit and attached a new muffler with dual tips to fit in the rear bumper. im not sure how accurate it is or if it is possible at all to have a muffler like the one shown. i scowered the internet for pictures of an RSI exhaust and came up with nada. so i based the muffler on the drawing kindly provided by mstngcobrasvt98. let me know what you think. soon i will be at the priming stage! oh wait, i have to work on moding the interior for the open doors... doh!
