Ok here you go. If I was starting my project car over this is what I would start with.
Install full frame front to rear.
Install roll bar and side bars that extend all the way to front of the front clip.
Mount coil over suspension to front clip roll bars.
channel floor to allow for true duals. and correct ground clearance.
Install mini tubs in the rear to allow for larger tires.
modify front fender lips to allow for larger tires.
Thats enough you get the idea.

its actually very simple buy subframe connectors for about 200$ and bolt them in. they really should be welded in IMO but theres some that can get bolted in....... our cars are like giant sponges that absorb any power made from the engine and it will keep your roof from getting any cracks in it where its welded from the factory like mine has.

Well yea subframes are a for sure thing... but I think he meant building a full "stock car" style tubular frame.
Ok instead of paint. cover your car with flexible lcd panels and hook them up to a computer like a jumbotron would be. Then you can make your car any colour you want anytime. Real flames piece of cake. use a clip of real fire. for an even more James bond kind of thing you could have cameras that take video of the surrounding environment then project that video onto the screens and make your car dissapear.

UUUmmmm, part of fabricating/custom work is coming up with the idea. If someone gives you an idea they will have to walk you through the entire fab process.
I saw a car driving around that had been beat with a baseball bat all over. It was surely custom and actually looked kind of cool. I am not saying to do that to anyone's car including your own.
Notice all the replies have not been new crazy ideas. They are just old ideas that are not seen that often....how about smoke stacks up through the hood with some flipped shorties. Never saw that on a thirdgen. Why not cut the front end off and install one from a FWD car. Better yet, remove the hatch and make a rumble seat back there. Your friends will love it.
