pretty simple one... carbon fiber door panels. Also pretty useless since you can only see them when the door's open, but I got them really cheap from another Viper guy

Now I'm afraid I'm going to be addicted

Once the mod door gets opened, it's stuck. Even the simple/little mods add up and become addicting.

The funny thing is they don't replace a part, they just get stacked on top. So they actually add weight (though probably < 1 lb)

Abandon all savings plans and budgets. It has begun. No turning back now.

At least it isn't boost related....YET!

You're a bad influence! I don't need any more power - yet. I think I'm going to try to replace all the interior LEDs with blue ones as a winter project, and maybe a get an exhaust too

Just in time for the drive, some minor interior and exterior trim

The cupholder bezel is actually functional since the factory one is too wide, this narrows it

Lol, I got a mitt sticker for huey too lol

As far as the cup holder, why does the viper even have one?!?!?.....and I pray ur too bust driving to ever use/need to use it....

Technically it is just where you place the removable ash tray, which I have no use for

cupholder is useful for holding energy drinks when you're driving home after a day like this

Andrew...really happy you made the drive. Car looks sweet! Well done.

Thanks

My car was keyed today. Two days after I put the stickers on. I'm surprised it took them that long

I don't really care though, I view it as a battle wound and I'm leaving them on. I need to get the scratches out from the SUV anyway so I'll just get the paint touched up in the spring.

Fortunately they didn't have the guts to do it properly, it's not deep and is only on the rear quarter panel

I think the problem was that my stickers were too small. So here is Romneymobile version 2.0

Lots of stickers = RICE! Good for an added 25hp!

Last pic is funny when you notice the Viper is attached to a gas pump.

Andrew, send that to Romney's campaign. And park it in Cleveland and my jobsite, Obama keeps flying in here to campaign and since our job is at the airport the FAA and secret service makes us shut the job down on days he flys in here. He needs to see that. There are a lot of beaters and Prius's with O stickers up here.

While that is awesome and epic, you are just begging for problems.
With all that ild be afraid to even drive around knowing liberals will throw stuff at ur car. And ur in chicago/illinois. It really is a lost cause, and you are amungst morons anyways


Funny how conservatives don't act this way to cars wth liberal sickers. I've nevr even considered vandilising som prius with a oretard sticker on it, even though I kinda would like to
