I also have some goodies on the interior including Blaupunkt/Crossfire Audio sounds and a Momo Carbon Fiber Shift ****. Once I get the new side skirts on, I think I will be done with mods for a little while.

One stinger missile behind each AMG sideskirt (got to head to Home Depot and get those drawer slides)

Now as to this obsessive stuff, I think you guys have got me all wrong.



Actually, I am not a huge Batman fan, although I like the movies. My wife just made a comment about the car looking like the Batmobile when I first brought it home and I thought it would be cool to sort of give the car a theme as I added mods..

Here are a couple of shots of the stereo and shift ****. It's a Blaupunkt MP68 Hamburg head unit, Crossfire 4 channel amp with two channels driving Crossfire components in the doors and the other two driving Kicker 6.5" subs in the factory locations behind the seats.

Nice, that's really clean. I like the flush mounted amp.

gd3679 has the same emblems, but his is a coupe and he doesn't have any of the same mods as I do in terms of wheels, bumper, etc. etc..

If you wreck that thing, does a bat-bike pop out and the car self destructs?? I do like it though, is that the same car with a bat theme that was posted a few months ago?

Bhays, it goes without saying that I'm a big fan of "Faux" Crossfire one of one, or one of none "Special Editions" since I was one of the first to do it. That's one of the great things about owning a car that nobody really knows anything about. You can turn it into something very personal, and if you do it well enough most people will think it came from the factory that way.
After all, just think of how many other "Special Edition" cars have been produced thanks to the Movies.
Alfa Romeros Spider "Graduate" Edition
"Bullitt" Mustangs
Gone in 60 Seconds "Eleanor"
I think there may even have been a "James Bond" edition BMW Z3 when it first came out. Just to name a few.
By the way, since it was your Wife who picked up on the Bat Mobile "theme" first, (and before FP asks) any photos of Bat Girl in black leather, boots, mask and cape in the future?

Now all you need to do is black out the chrysler wings. Maybe a black chrome!

The batfire!

You think so? I am really torn on that. I kind of like the only shiny bits being the front and rear wings and the lips on the wheels....

My initial impression is that they are a little too in your face with all of the black out that you have done. In my opinion a little out of place.

Now dont get me wrong the ride looks pretty sweet but I think that would be a bit sweeter!

Try doing some photoshop mods to it and that may help.

You did a nice job - it looks a lot better than some mods I have seen. Especially the rims. On the other hand, I like mine stock and can even tolerate the Chrysler badges.

Do you have a DeLorean at home that runs on garbage?
