I feel sorry you have to drive around in that thing. If the spider webs are vinyl, peel that **** off ASAP. Then unbolt that spoiler. If any of that trim on the bumber or on the fenders are removable, then remove it. Take off the window decal, and maybe paint the mesh in the grill black. After all then, then think about rims, taillights, etc.

alot of guys sell OZ kits, you might want to consider one of a clean slightly more agressive look.

Funny...they got rid of the chrome grill just to spread it everywhere else....

Get a solid paint job, rid of that double decker wing, actuall rims, and get rid of that chrome trim and you should be golden...err...i mean...well you know what i mean...lol

You should also do some cheap DIY work after you remove the web graphics, wing, and trim. Search for blacking out your headlights, black out your reflectors, and painting the mesh of the grille black. Doing these things are a cheap way to increase the looks of your car. My suggestion would be to use Krylon Fusion Gloss Black spray paint for blacking out the headlights and reflectors and Semi-Gloss or Flat Black Engine Enamel Paint for the mesh (just make sure to sand and prime the mesh first). You can check my registry if you want to see what the blacked out headlights and reflectors look like if you do it yourself.

holy shxt . Paint the mesh in the grill black. Take off those chrome fender edges. Wing needs to go. Spider webs need to go. Windshield banner needs to go.

that color is rather hard to do anything with in terms of styling.... however, i do believe that if you;
get a factory oz wing,
get the side markers painted (orange doesnt go)
black out the head lights,
drop it,
lose the chrome, chrome is the enemy,
and put some aluminum brushed 17 inch rims on it (i dont recommend going with gold or black, keep it simple)
you would have something nice

but for god sakes, the way the car looks now makes me want to eat my own eyeballs

leave it how it is that thing must have 500hp cuz of that spoiler and the trim!!!!

no take all that stuff off pronto. the spoiler is no more than 6 bolts, all you have to do it plug the holes, then take out your goof off and get rid of the spider webs. the chrome trim should come off super easy. whatever adhesive doesnt come off use Goof Off to get it off, it works the best out of any adhesive remover that i have ever used.

and as for mods, check out www.grounddynamics.com for the stock OZ skirts if you cant find someone to sell them to you. and for engine stuff, www.roadracemotorsports.com is the best, and their customer service is the best

Well everyone else has already suggested what to take off and I completely agree so I won't say it again. I just can't believe that someone seriously liked the way that looks.

Spiderman????????? At least go with the black suited spiderman....VENOM all the way.

First you need to find the original owner....then beat the living crap out of that person. Next demand all the stock components from them and then start from there. I agree with new rims, lowered and blackened lights.
