Ever heard of Show-n-Go? One of my car clubs has a show category where your timeslip counts. It's called "Go Fast With Class" and a timeslip is required for the competition.
It didn't help me any... I'm definitely not the only DSMer with a polished engine because I always LOOSE. Sam S. has a bad-ass polished "King-of-Bling" Galant VR-4 that's slower than my bucket, he always cleans up that event, and he deserves it. I have one of the slower cars in the club, but Sam's is definitely the shinyest. The pics don't do it justice, it really has to be seen in person to fully appreciate what he's done to it. It's street legal, wins trophies, could be daily driven, and it runs 12's (with the 18" wheels). When he washes it, it gets done on jackstands and he details the undercarriage. :barf:
I have to say, it's a little ricey because of how hard everything's been over-done. The stickers have to go. But everyone's opinion is different. All the JDM parts (like the hood, back of the car, and the whole front end) are awesome, but almost none of them are visible in these pics.
