This is the area to display the custom things that make our cars not just another one off the assembly line, but a one off original. Its what separates us from the guy in the lane next to us, the thing only a true enthusiast can appreciate because its so subtle, so clean, that you know it makes your car stand out in a pack.

Leave the vinyl at the door, I wanna see custom paint, powder coating, polished, airbrushed, molded, massaged, hand made, LOVE that you put into your car.
 
does the mechanical stuff count? lol i have lots of one off stuff i've fabbed up
 
home made ram air grill

no cnc here, or even a milling machine. Drill, jigsaw, file and lots of sandpaper!

Have you ever looked into painting the chrome around the windows! I want to paint mine black. I finally found a place that would powder coat my exhaust tips. I want to get rid of all the exterior chrome on my ride then I'm going to work on the interior chrome.
 
here is my custome airbrushing and the 10 1/2" stock srt wheels with "legmaker mod" powdercoating

Sorry I don't have a good pic(I used too) loaded on photobucket, but I custom painted my Ram on the front bumper...(ring still silver, OB background, black Ram Head with OB eyes)

and my current project, is a new custom painted shift knob...(still trying to decide if I'm going to inclued the 135/24R like the photochop)

My turn.

What you see here is a stock neon trunk with no spoilor holes and a AVS bodykit spoior molded into the trunk. You'll also notice the third break delete and key hole delete. Caliber SRT-4 badge off the assembly line months before the release of a part number.
