Better yet, get the prinl to street race with you at night, and ask him to throw it...

If you can, get someone with a muscle car to throw a race with you. Can't go wrong.

Most highschoolers dont understand cam lope. My buddy had a mild 350 in his camaro, that loped, and everyone thought it was running like shiznit.

Make it shine. Keep it clean. Tint the windows. Lower it. Make it quick.

Stripes will cause a love/hate ordeal with the car. Some will love, some will hate. No one can argue with a nice, shiny color.
It's Gumby's fault.

I personally think racing stripes are too old school for the Bird. However the artistic use of some color and design on the hood and sides could make a big difference. I would go with something that says muscle but in a modern way.

Skip the stripes, and you can probably skip the stereo.
Skip the burnouts and high speed backwards runs.
In other words don't do anything that makes you look like an ass.

If someone tries to call your bluff, pop the pedal and chirp the tires. The sudden, yet short rev of the motor and noticable chirp is the best way to say don't f*^$ with me.

My car stood out when I was in High School and everyone knew it was mine. Of course it is big and white and was a one-of-a-kind. Plus I parked to protect it which unintentionally put it right in the center of attention. I didn't bother with the stereo, I let the mellow rumble of the Flowmasters do my talking. Besides, how are you going to talk to the ladies if your stereo is blasting?
I got most of my attention just idling in line waiting for my turn to leave.

I like odd paint schemes like red  stripes on a black base but that blue/red bird looks like it would hurt to look at it in direct sunlight.

i personally vote for number 2 the clean look will always get someone to have a good case of whiplash as you go cruisin by, but make it mean and make it sound like you got something that a normal ricer wouldnt want to try. a good set of flowmasters with a nice 2"-2.5" pipe is always a good recipie IMPO.

well, i asked some people for some stuff, like gt40 heads, cobra intake manifold, turbo front bumper, and i'll buy some nice fog lights, so hopefully if i can buy these things, it should help me with my apperance and get in that year book! right now the cars i have to worry about is a audi A4, that has rims and exhaust, a audi quatro, both 2006's. and a really nice 2006 dodge 1500, that has been raised, 38" tires, custom flame grill and some other goodies.

What I would do:

- HO conversion (even better w/GT40 or Cobra goodies)
- Exhaust (Flowmaster 40s would be ideal)
- Keep the exterior basically the same

But yet again, this is coming from a guy that has done an HO conversion and has NO exterior mods AT ALL yet.  I guess I prefer to go fast before I look fast.

Your car looks nice and clean, but the paint looks kinda plain Jane. I would consider putting some type of decals maybe on the hood or sides to give some contrast. On the other hand you could go over to the police station and do some donuts or maybe ram your car into the police station. Nothing says attention getter like a picture of your car on the front page of the local news paper!!
