Car Show, Need Help!!!!!!

[celica70]

This weekend there is a car show, and the last one i entered the judge told me to doing something around my car to bring it out. Do you guys have any good ideas for me? Because i always see kids with tile and carpet and mirrors, but i want to do something different. thanks

I've always wanted to like get a smoke machine and have smoke underneath the car to make it look like it's riding on a cloud or something, then I would also put some strobe lights down there for a kick ass lightning effect, then I would hire some import models and have them wear some thong underwear and a pair of angel wings on their back and just have them 'fly around' my car.

my friends suggested something like that, but with dry ice, then turning on my neons so the cloud would look orange. i don't know if it would work, but we might try it first before the show

Either that, or over-the-top paint jobs like this guy...

He's been my nemesis for about the past 2 years, even when I had my Civic. He ALWAYS seems to win Best of Show no matter what, just because of the paint. And every suqare inch of the car that does not have paint on it is covered in decals. I think its way too much (not to mention played out), but maybe thats what some judges like.

I say just keep it clean and simple. I like getting some indoor/outdoor carpeting that complimants the exterior color of the car and rolling the car onto that. Have a sign company make you a plexi sign with all your cars mods and get a tripod to mount it. If its indoor like HIN, set up some DJ lighting and rent a fog machine and a couple of strobes and put them under your car. If you got neon, use em. That seem to be the trend. Just dont EVER stuff that white ploy-fill sh!t into your fenders and underneath!!! They hate that tacky crap!!

Mistrimeat i have seen that car in magazine so sombody more than just the judges like it. and those graphics take a lot of time and detail. not to mention they handles are shaved so i dought its all just the paint. good luck on your up coming shows i hope you beat him sometime.

celica70 there are a lot of things you could do depending on how elabrat you would to get you could go as far as larryd did by taking off that wheel or as smiple as banner or parking on some carpet either way good luck.
