Nice bugs! Thanks.

Heh, I guess I should have said "slammed or lowered". Love them all.

Definitely not slammed, in fact the front end is way too high for the tires and I just ordered 2" Airkewld drop spindles. I will be adding disk brakes and a 2" narrowed adjustable beam soon. But slammed is not my style.

Still, you said GREEN so, I assumed you were looking for feedback about green bugs. So here ya go.
