LOL, yeah, you're probably right. There are always things to do!
Here are my answers:
- Remove titanium fang covers (black plastic underneath)
No way! I love the fangs!
- Blacked out headlight / tailight covers
Again, no way! I love the front lights and the way they look. And I don't think darkening my brake lights is a smart idea. I already have one dent back there!
- Clear corner markers on the rear
Yes, I did think about this. But, the red really doesn't bother me, its the amber I can't stand.
- Limo black tint all around
This is one I am seriously considering. Probably in the spring I will look into this. My problem is that I am scared. I have seen so many horrible, peeling, bubbling tint jobs that I am just a little put off by it. But, on the same token, I have seen some nice tint outs. I guess I just need to find a really good shop and spend the money. But what really scares me is messing with my side windows. My passenger side is already slow, and something tells me that if I tint it, it will be the beginning of the end. I have been spraying silicone lube down there, and it has helped for sure.
- Line-X covered cladding
Another No Way! I love the cladding. I really like the gray/black overall tone of the vehicle, including the inside. Its got that urban camoflage look now, just like my favorite G.I. Joe (Cobra rather) character:
FIREFLY
I think if I had a second VX to really play with, I would do some crazy $H1T to it. I always thought the VX would look wicked with a huge canon or belt fed machine gun mounted on top. I also would like to incorporate some "get-away" mods, like an automatic caltrop dispenser or smoke screen or something (and I have seriously thought about this, it wouldn't be too hard). By now you can probably tell I spend most of my waking hours in fantasy land.Once I get my garage straightened out, and my welding gear setup, I might fab up some sort of mock canon out of pipe that can be attached to the roof rack...you know, just for fun!
If I can get the clear corners, that will pretty much be the last outer body mod I want to do for a while. It would be nice to get tinted, and I am still considering Tone's hitch and black Safari bar, but those tires and rims really set me back, and I still need a roof rack for my bikes and I think I might want a basket for up there eventually also. And that stuff ain't cheap. I did see a cheap reverse view camera at Wal*mart last night actually, which I am thinking about.
