Just received my shifter knob (12 mm for a Bay) and it arrived faster than I expected. Looks great, too!
Thanks! |

Great service. I had a problem with a muffler and Lee took care of it and another I have before it has a problem. Some of the best and most honest customer service I have ever seen. I was going to wait and just pic up the replacements at Bug-In but Lee went ahead and shipped them from Taiwan to me. Can't wait to get a dehne fuel gauge, one of his bug shifters (both for my 60 Vert and a couple bus shifters from Lee at Bug-In _________________ Stocking distributor of "The Funky Green Panels"

Just received deck lid stand offs and hinge bolt mounting plates. Very nice products and a painless transaction. Highly recommended.
I'm sure I'll be buying more items soon. _________________ Greg

I have the normal bus exhaust from Vintage speed and it is great , they now do a superflow but I cant see if they do a Superflow with the 42mm pipes for lowered bus, where the pipe exits in the middle
Does anyone know if they make these??
On the site it shows the superflow for lowered bus but says it has 38mm pipes??
Do they make it with 42mm pipes??

Just ordered another one this time the Superflow.
You have to see the quality, I sound like a salesman for them.
And they fit, how many others do, they are all built for beetles not buses

What about performance, compared to a regular 4 in 1?
Is there any comparative dyno data? _________________ '71 VW 1302 1300cc in progress....

|
|
So I would just like to say that after finding out about the unfortunate loss of the owner and his wife of Iconic Automotive I was bummed out to say the least. They seemed like really nice people over the phone and very easy to deal with. I was also curious as to what would happen with my order that I had placed a few weeks prior. I e-mailed Vintage Speed and got a response the next day saying that my order will ship this week. That kind of communication was a nice surprise, quick and curteous! Look forward to getting my exhaust, will post some pics when I have it installed. Thanks Mr. Lee! _________________ "Go to Heaven for the climate, Hell for the company." |

Ordered a stainless sump plate after I stripped the drain plug on an aluminum one. I tapped the aluminum one for a 3/8 NPT plug while waiting for the vintage speed unit. Fast shipping. New plate goes on with the next oil change.
Shipping notification and tracking was useless since I don't speak or read the Thai language. |

Here are some pictures. Man the little bug sounds amazing, excellent deep tone and not too loud. My buddy that helped me install it now wants to get one too after we started it up. Quality is top notch! Oh and by the way I don't work for AIG, just happen to work at a building that they used to be in and the parking lot hasn't been updated. Sorry if the pictures are a tad big.

Just received 2 door pulls promptly and for 5 bucks shipping from Taiwan to Charlotte. Great quality. How can he ship half-way around the world for 5 bucks and so many domestic sellers have such high shipping costs? Part of their profit I guess. _________________ More Hot Lighting Products are here!
