|
I found this parcel tray for a Type 1 bug. It's made of a board covered with some plastic covered FAKE Weave that when you touch it, it feels kind of bumpy. The front has a foam coverd with black vinyl. Has any one else have or seen one before? I don't think it's home made either.
Close up of fake weave, notice the detail:

I have a type 3 parcel tray just like that. Had it since the 80's. _________________ I'd be UNSTOPPABLE if not for Law Enforcement and PHYSICS.
I recycle old cars and parts, other than when I rot, that's as Green as I am going to get.
Thanks to my Tesla driving neighbors, I feel more relaxed driving my SUBURBAN and old VW's.
Everything sounds good on paper! |

I guess that's the look they were going after, but this is printed vinyl.
Here it is on a type 3 parcel tray.
