It's the little things that count and get noticed by judges in car shows and other people who have the same car.

the judge wouldn't probably notice unless you pointed it out to him..

.. and then he'll be like "ummm..... ok."

Well that's because *most* of the judges in car shows (import type) suck. When it comes to classic cars you have judges that know about the cars and care about the little things.

Yea most import shows are won by the people that know people.. its sad.

But at least make the key ring a sweet strobe, that changes colors..

hi i was wondering if anyone knew where i could by some led lights for my tc because when i was ordering my car i originally asked for them but i guess the sales man wasnt paying attention to me and he didnt order them. so now im stuck here trying to find some for a good reasonable price because im not sure how high or low the run for. so if anyone would could help me that would be great!
