chandeliers, hot and cold running water, fuzzy dice, hatch mounted port-a-potty, seat mounted butt warmer for cold winters, rapid fire toilet paper dispenser, steering wheel mounted TV, remote control toaster oven, mr coffee, bumper mounted dobermans, doors that turn into wings, sulfur filled fartcannon mufflers that smell as bad as they sound, dash mounted strippers(make sure you have plenty of $1's around).... i guess that about covers it.

oh yeah, if you get new gerbils, make sure they're ported first. easier now than later.

    Don't forget to tune your sticker PLACEMENT either...if they're not positioned right for your car you're losing precious ponies. Take the time to get it done right, go to a shop if you're worried about blowing the motor with incorrect sticker angles.

    Pretty much anything that you would do to any other car you can do to FB's, you just have to search a lot harder to source the parts. Basic bolt ons to full blown cars, you can do it all if you want. Just takes time and money, lots and lots of money.

    hey, no offense to the newbie... we've all been there. but that's a pretty broad question. you can do ANYTHING to mod a car you want. the question is... WHAT do you want to accomplish? do you want to be fast? do you want to have awesome handling? do you want the rice award for 2003? also, there's a nice little sticky note on the board that says "ATTN new members: please read here first before posting." and i do believe the search button is mentioned in that thread.

    that being said, welcome to the club bandit... i hope we've got the answers you're looking for! don't take us too seriously here!

    gotta run, my doberman's are false alarming at my dash mounted stripper!
