Hello one and all. My name is Josh, and I've been a Star Wars fan for pretty much my entire life. I figured it was no longer enough to hang with the 501st and carry around multiple MR lightsabers ( in case myself and my friends have a sudden need to smack each other). It was time to make a far more overt statement. So I began an A Wing makeover on my '98 Jetta. Pictures of the project are forthcoming. When done, the interior will be suitably dorked out, the exterior will sport the iconic A Wing paint pattern and probably "laser cannons" on the side.

Welcome! And very cool. You guys are making me want to geek out my everyday ride! If my caravan wasn't on its last legs, I probobly would. The Fan Mobile is still getting lots of attention. We took her camping this past week and were the talk of the campground with a constant stream of on lookers. My husband hated it!

nothing like trying to get away from it all and go camping just to have people lined up to look at your camper.. hehehe,
Nice looking jetta. Small bit of advise you might want to do something with the vw emblems on the wheels. and back of the car.. but it does look sweet.

Of course, I'm quite partial to VWs and Jettas myself, and my Jetta still has the VW logo on the front and two of the wheels. As much as we decorate these things, there's really no getting around the fact that they're still cars.
I like what you've done, and I especially like the sorta free-form Rebel insignia on the roof -- like it was painted on in haste before an important battle. I'll look forward to more pictures!

good point. I tried to remove any of my cars distinguishing markings that I could and I still find them in the interior..
