Well if you must make yours look like mine....
Small spoiler look could be fresh, and don't do the wheels black like I did
Otherwise, I'd have to admit I want graphics to cover up my 6+ years of white van man's door "dings"
Lots of opinions, hard time choosing ?

Made some calls about having the wheels painted so that is also a possibility.
We shall see. Its great to get some feedback though, keep it coming.

Love the graphics and i know its your car at a quick glance. there are only a few bugeyes in the country that can claim that.
Dont like the pic of the darker wheels.
Why not sit down and think of some more grafics to go on, freshen it up a bit. id like to see some white wheels go on(to see how it looks) maybe despoiler with a carbon boot/wrc bonnet with vent.
End of the day, you have probably one of the most followed project threads ever. Think the car deserves to stand out from the rest. I'm afraid, if the grafics go, it will just blend into the rest of the black bugs unnoticed.(nothing against black bugs, i love them)
Just my 2 pence worth

I like the graphics mate, one of the many one off touches that make the car what it is - a truly awesome piece of machinery that show cases your talent - can't wait to see it finished 
You could always change the graphics - doesn't have to be totally just a freshen up. Maybe with the a-line spoiler as you know how you like the US look
How about a photoshop........with the white wheels
edit - bit slow for the photo shop request, I'll get my coat.....

Morette's now need to be on this car.The bug looks so much better. Would look the part with gold cheque stripe lenthways down the l/side. You can fade gold to black wheel wise to suite.

No to Morettes! 
No to dark wheels!.....look ****e on black cars in my opinion.
Still undecided about the graphics......need more time to think, still too jet lagged.

i've read a bit of what you've done to it man and its brilliant, but for me the decals do make it look a bit like those £2 diecast cars you see on racks on the corner of the aisles in morrisons, which i don't think is the look you are after
In just black it does look mean, what about getting a red rear spoiler? or a WR blue rear spoiler? don't think i've seen that done before
though there may be a reason for that!
