Sounds pretty sweet, except for the metallic tinted windows. Just get a dark smoke tint, that always looks sweet on a black car.

Don't get the IROC emblems etc. thats the equivalent of putting TypeR emblems on a car that never could have been a TypeR or one of the many other ***** emblem & sticker swapping things. just shave all the emblems.

I second that. Faking up a car is dispicable.
