I think the hood strut would snap it in half

Unless you're covering the car in Swarovski Crystal and upholstering the interior with Louis Vuitton, I'm just not impressed...

Though you are probably the tackiest tuner ever, I'd say you're pretty far from the fruitiest...

Ah...my opinion is that if one is going to do it, don't do it ricey style, but do it DTM style.

Apart from the Hepatitis-colored headlights, that is HOT. Thanks for sharing!

Ok. Lots of questions to answer now in reply to everyones response. First off, my car. I have never done any show to any of my cars. I have always done performance. This time I am doing a little show first and adding the performance right after. My car is going to be far from riced out. There are a lot of ricers in my area and I will never be anything like that. Now as for the crowd I hang out with. Mostly car people. My closest friends own their own race cars/trucks running below 10's. From there is where I have learned to work on all my cars for myself. My best times ever ran were 11's but that was with my mustang. Anyways, a little clarification on the hood. It will not look riced out and the pink will barely be seen. It is very very faint in color and it will almost blend in with the color of my car. The wheels with the pink lip, again, barely will be seen and my seats, no one will see unless they are in my car. As for performace, I am as much as I can get done. Suspension a deffinate. Someone asked about who is doing a turbo setup for me in germantown and that would be one of my friends who has a 10 second car who owns a shop so it should come out pretty damn nice otherwise its all coming off and procharger here i come! And I believe someone asked me about the color of my bike? well my r6 is candy red and my gsxr is black. Anyways. Im not mad for anyone giving me crap for what Im doing its harder to visualize as appose to seeing it. But for anyone going to the dragon meet I guess you will see me there! And everyones entitled to there own opinion!!!

Thanks boys!

hahah that will NEVER happen. I hate large spoilers aka wings and i hate fart cans! I dont like riced out noisy cars. I like the deeper toned american cars. Im usually a v8 person. But i love this car way to much to have anything else!

My 5.0 mustang. 1992. bored out 302. bbk pulleys. exhaust. intake. procharger. it wasnt carborated it was fuel injected obviously. je pistons. milled stock heads. b cam. roller rockers. 355 gears. short shifter. the list goes on small upgrades and large upgrades. ran with some skinnys on the front and some nice fat ones on the back. 11.99 at the track. I may have some video and time slips still from last year.

All of a sudden I'm beginning to fell a bit inadequate. How does a 19 year old female get this deep into car mods and performance and have two bikes to boot?

SexiCross06, it sounds like your mods will be fairly subtle and will complement your car. You don't happen to have any pink on your bikes do you? I always thought it was hot for a woman to have a hot bike with a pink color scheme.

i should be in love but the fact you can handle those bikes intimidates me instead ... so i will just admire from a distance.

<corny joke>

googli goo ... i'd tune her air fuel ratio any day.

</corny joke>


j/k j/k ... mod away ... spend the money a new hood would cost on the turbo kit and have the stocker covered as it will have better fit and finish than a new mold could ever have.

I knew "The Devil" would show up on this thread. See now we're talkin' wide bodies and all kinds of ridiculousness. To each their own...

As for Sexicross, I'm sure she can afford the mods and the carbon. She's 19, has had race cars, has a Xfire, two bikes, and mods.

She does sound like she knows a few things. Way more than most 19 year olds (guys and girls).

I used to have an R6, it was a great bike! Shopping for a Duc now.

I have been around cars my whole life and that is how I have come to know as much as i do about them. As for the money. I have some saved from an accident I was in and messed up my back all cause some stupid b*tch cant drive. And work of course even though it doesnt make me a millionaire =( sadly. Oh well I am over it now.

As for being russian, no im not.

And that picture with the pink crossfire. hahah. nothing like what mine is going to be. Mine will be alot more subtle then the picture of that one.

As for being intimadated by me? lol na. you shouldnt be!

And finally, the r6. yes i love it! And CGOCIFER, what kind of ducati are you lookin at now?

Well my car should be lookin pretty clean come the dragon meet, so if any of you are going i will deffinately see you there!! =)

hey i beleive you, it sounds like a winning combo.. sounds like you have money to play around with .I'm just asking because my first car was a 73 mach 1 (probably the slowest fast looking mustang ever made) I pretty much lost interest in my mustang when i bought my crossfire, I drove it the other day and it felt like a wet bag of dog shiiiite. I'll wait till summer comes and re evaluate my opinion, because I have an engine hoist and stand waiting in my garage. I dont know if I would want to run 11's in that car now!

Looking at either a new Sport Classic 1000S or possibly an 848. I really like the classic look of the 1000S. Pic of my R6 is attached.
