Zelectric Motors has a red electrified beetle with custom Hagon coils for the front. (has a drop spindle setup as well.)
The Hagon website only references motorcycle usage.

Has anyone installed Hagon springs on their bug?
Is it possible that they only have springs in front, and no shocks? I've heard that can make a smoother ride when the vehicle is lowered.

The stock shock towers are not strong enough to support coil over springs front or rear without additional support. As for running without shocks that's your choice but I wouldn't do it, they control your car bouncing after the wheel hits a bump, to me it's unsafe and there have been several heated discussions on the subject. Would you take the shocks out of your domestic (or import) daily driver and expect the ride to improve?
