Absolute USA's VW Bug

Chris sent back some info from CES on Absolute USA's VW Bug, a sweet little 1971 Volkswagen Beetle tricked out by Da Shop from Los Angeles for Absolute. The vehicle features four Absolute subwoofers, a full arsenal of the brand's speakers and amps, plus five screens. Chris tells us that the front under-trunk amp-rack raises and lowers. On the outside, Da Shop outfitted the Bug with custom power gullwing roof covered in vinyl (that's the blue stuff covering most of the car) and 17" wheels by ICE, which might not be much by today's standards but look monstrous on the Beetle.  More pics after the jump.
