Hi guys, just thought that I'd share my work in progress on my car. Yes, yes, it's been months, but didn't really have time to do much short of adding stickers & adding sport rims (with a tiny blue tinge on them) in the first couple of weeks. So here's what I have so far: What I love is that the leather seats that came with the car match the red/black colour scheme of the original Constitution-class ships! ;D Will post more as she progresses... ftsvd

@red - Nice to see you on the boards! ;D Anyway, here are some upgrades that I've been working on... only thumbnails this time (the first post was too big... ) but the full-size images are available at my site.

But to non-Trekkies, they muz be wonder why u put your carplate no. all over your car, afraid someone change your carplate no. right, hehe ... ;D I look forward one day Captain ftsvd pilot his shuttle to S'pore and show case his new vessel to us at the Chingay Parade!

I'm particularly interestd in how you achieve the effect on your muffler:
Care to share?
Any clearer pics to show the effect in action?

No new pics at the moment. Basically, I hunted almost all the car accessories shops in my area until I found a pair of matching blue LED mufflers. (Most shops either don't have a matching pair or they're not blue...)
They're basically mufflers that you put over your exhaust, but these have LED lights that are wired to a switch on the dashboard. ;D
