    I don't get it.

    Swapping Viper for Viper and Ram for Ram...seems the same to me. Swapping a Viper logo for a Ram logo isn't the same as swapping a Viper logo for a Viper logo. However, I can see some validity in that. If someone threw the '09 Ram logo on a 1988 Ram, I'd think it was stupid; it wouldn't...

    Repainting my '92 RT/10 dash

    I wetsanded and primered mine and handed it off to a buddy with a booth to spray with a low-sheen black plastic paint. There are probably a few threads on it around here somewhere. Other pics of the interior all black:

    I don't get it.

    So you're saying that logos are irrelevant to you and have no resonance or staying power (or is it just print media)? In the cereal box analogy you're saying the logo is irrelevant because the contents of the box are the same (?), and with any printed marketing material you just throw it away...

    I don't get it.

    The reason I started that thread is for a few reasons. I personally prefer the newer logo over the old because: 1.) It's symmetrical. 2.) It doesn't look dated. 3.) It'd be something different to do since I'm virtually done with mods. I'm a designer and I do branding for a living. People...

    Has anyone updated ALL badges to Gen. III?

    No, this thread was in jest. I totally got you. Tryin' to get your post count up, I see. Nice contribution, asshat.

    Has anyone updated ALL badges to Gen. III?

    I asked for opinions and hoped people would actually justify them rather than just shooting off-the-cuff remarks and making childish jabs. "DERF DERF DERF MIGHT AS WELL BE PINK DERF DERF!" If the conversation was a little more adult, I wouldn't have taken offense. My "thoughts?" inquiry was...

    Has anyone updated ALL badges to Gen. III?

    Just for ****s and giggles: ORIGINAL: GEN. III BADGES: And for those of you that think THIS: ...is comparable to THIS: ...you're a ****tard. Start your car in the garage and leave the door closed. You'll feel sleepy, but I promise you all will be fine.

    Has anyone updated ALL badges to Gen. III?

    Updating the logos doesn't make "sence"? The lines and design of the car are timeless; most of the non-Viper people that I run into think the car is brand new. The logo, however, looks like it came straight out of the late 80s/early 90s (which it did). The Fangs logo and wordmark does not...

    Has anyone updated ALL badges to Gen. III?

    Maybe it's blasphemy, maybe it's not, but I'm toying with the idea of updating every Sneaky Pete on my car for Fangs (where possible). That would include valve covers (with spacers), the hood emblem, the hood badges, the gas cap door (I have MGW), the bumper badges, the third brake light (if...

    I had a hard time waiting for the "official" post to hit...ABOUT TIME!!! It looks sick, man! I wound up taking your advice and going with Nittos too...just put 'em on Friday. While everyone is offering unsolicited advice...how about painting the sidemarker housing black and tinting the...

    Rubbing Issues Solved

    I just ordered a set of Nittos from Discount. I couldn't find a better deal anywhere; this guy is basically hooking me up at cost ($495/tire for the rears and $288/tire for the fronts, mounted and balanced). Rears are gonna be 345/25-20s and I went with 305/30-19s up front. I did a little...

    Rubbing Issues Solved

    I'm a liar and a buffoon. With 2 passengers at normal speeds on semi-bumpy roads it was a nightmare. The springs settled and the extra weight did me in. I have one finger width's clearance when the car is unoccupied, so I'm getting Toyos or Nittos tonight. That SHOULD solve it; otherwise I'm...

    My hood just BAAAAAARELY touches the tires with the PS2 setup when I open the hood, but not enough to where I have to cut the wheels like guys with a 20/20 setup.

    Help Photo Shop wheels

    Blue/white with black wheels is a lot like bushido on the Alley's car. Matt Durbahn and 1fast400 both have solid blue GTSs with black wheels too. Those are non-Photoshop ways to get an idea. I think the black is menacing and makes the car look aggressive, but is one color too many in the palette...

    I put on steel wool mittens...wait, whut? You'll get it when you're older... No, I pulled my spring caps and went back to stock. I was rubbing over EVERY bump, even driving slowly, with a 7/16" drop from the caps and 1" from the springs. For future reference for future lowerers: 19/20...
