I saw a bunch of things that guys did to their Crossfires at the Dragon that were very interesting and great looking. I saw some things that I didn't like but to each his/her own. Still the owner liked it or it would have been removed/changed.
He did ask for opinions, but you still can be polite. His car is very unique and different and I like it just for that reason. It is very well done without a lot of garbage on it.
Keep up the good work, James

Re: Check out my Batmobile
I like it, alot!
It's nice to see that the traditional mesh-style wheel looks good on these cars. I can't help but wonder what that car would look like with the centers powder coated black and the centers left in their polished state, along with either spacers or with wheels where the offset pushes them out a little closer to the edge of the fender. I really like the ride height though. I wouldn't change that.
How does the ride compare with stock?

Re: Check out my Batmobile
The wheels look very nice, and I bet you get a kick out of seeing the smiles on drivers/passengers faces when they come up behind you. (Especially the kids).
Where did you get the chrome letters to spell out B A T M O B I L E?
I had to go to a Nissan dealer to get Maxima letters for my AMX rebadging.
I agree, just the BAT badges from Andrew would have been more subtle, but who wants to be subtle?
Subtle....according to Websters, and Gazetteer Dictionary.
Difficult to define or detect
Hard to grasp
Elusive
Not obvious
Slight

Sweet! I love it. You go man.
I agree that you MUST do a vanity plate now. GOTHAM CITY is too many letters, but what about GOTHAM or WAYNE or BATMAN or NO ROBIN...
Hmmm, I'll have to give it some more thought...

You don't see that everyday! Looks like some nice custom lettering! Keep us posted on peoples reactions, I'm curious to see what the non-crossfire public people say!

I just tried DRKNIGHT on the NY DMV website but it was taken.
Maybe you can try something along those lines. The Dark Knight is a good nickname for the car too.

That rocks. Now if only you had an on-board computer that talked to you and could assess body damage as well as trigger a self-destruct mechanism and eject you into a smaller "crossfire" chopper (as in the Dark Night).

Dude, it's SWEET ! my compliments....
Just one observation. I see your a fellow New Yorker, I love this State ! However !!! I have just returned from the Body Shop after having my X-Fire 2 whole months. 2 weeks ago, I made the mistake of parking in a Lowe's Parking Lot. I purposly parked 1/4 a mile from the Store in the furthest reaces of the lot....as I was getting out of the car, some guy with a 350Z that had 12 diffrent colors because of all the plastic Aero body panels, and a wing from a 747 parked about 3 spaces away!! I looked at him, and he at me and we nodded. I didn't think anything more of it, and went off to the store. When I returned an hour later, he was gone, but there was a shopping cart about 3 feet from my driver's door. I saw it, and my heart sank...oh no !!! Sure enough, there was a 6 inch crease in my door. This was early 10am on a Saturday. All the Shopping carts were in their corale when I went in. Man, I was furious...luckily, the Body Shop I went to, has some new technique whre they can heat and shrink the metal without affecting the paint, and no filler. Cost me 175 bucks to fix....not too bad. Moral of the story is: With a Car like the X-Fire in NY....Bi-otches are gonna do nasty things out of spite when your not around. Be careful where you park, and definately go for that Armor Shield modification.
