    Need help on chroming three-spokes?

    When I get my Gen. 1 in Sept., I'd like to chrome the tri-spoke wheels. I know a lot of board members recommend Cal Chrome, but is there anywhere closer to me, I am in CT. I'd rather not ship wheels across the country. Any tips?

    Anyone ever been on GotFlames.net?

    I have been talking with Zach from this company - he claims cars with cats will not be able to produce the fumes to make the flames come out of the exhaust. But then he said that a Viper 'should be able to produce enough nice fumes to work.' Anyone have any knowledge on these flame kits, and...

    Anyone ever been on GotFlames.net?

    This is a cool site, and an even cooler mod! Has anyone ever bought one of their kits? I think as a novelty, the flames would look cool as hell esp. on a Gen.1. Does anyone know if this is compatible on Vipers? I emailed the company.

    VIPERS ON CAR & DRIVER TV SUNDAY 8/17!!!!!!

    Re: VIPERS ON CAR & DRIVER TV SUNDAY 8/17!!!!!! Yeah the show was good - I still think after seeing a Gen. 3 in action on TV, that the early Vipers look meaner. The Nashville piece was nice, I'm surprised they still had it in the rain.

    RT/10 at age 21 too early?

    I am 28, and getting my first Viper next month. At 22, I bought my first beemer, and was really excited to have a car that I enjoyed that none of my peers could touch. I say that you should go for it if attaining one is a passion of yours - but first weigh all the drawbacks like insurance...

    Gen.1 interior door handle upgrade?

    Really, I think the door handle surrounds by American Dream Motorsports look really nice, the logo looks very high-end and appropriate.

    Gen.1 interior door handle upgrade?

    I've seen plenty of nice door handle surrounds for Gen. 1 cars, but never any polished or alum. handles. Has anyone seen these? Also, does anyone know where I can find an aluminum shaft and release button for the ebrake? Dave.

    Having trouble deciding between 19's or 18's?

    Having trouble deciding between 19\'s or 18\'s? As some of you know - I recieve my black '94 mid Sept. The first change will be wheels/tires. I am having a tough time deciding between 19" or 18" wheels. I really like the 6-spoke HRE's in 19", but haven't seen them on an RT/10. Anyone have...

    I just completed my last transaction with Jon B

    Jon called me back after I emailed him, he spoke to me for at least 30 minutes regarding wheels and tires for my '94 which hasn't even arrived yet. He was the most knowledgeable Viper guy I've spoken to date, answered all my questions and then some - I will absolutely be ordering my HRE's from...

    Bad Dealer Experience and need advice...

    FYI - also, repainting the sills is not that outrageous in price anyway. Make sure it is done correctly though - there is a recent post on proper repainting of sills on here somewhere.

    Bad Dealer Experience and need advice...

    NO WAY!!! Considering that the techs owned up to it, and are not contesting the damage, make them do a complete repaint. You are entitled to having your car returned to the condition that it was in when you brought it there. I would be furious that they weren't more careful with a Viper. If...

    Vandalism & a better car alarm?

    Re: Vandalism & a better car alarm? 9mm Hollow Points = ammunition for 9mm handgun, hollow points being more deadly. As a handgun owner myself, I'm sure it was said in jest!

    Anyone in CT. have 'VIPER' on their plates?

    Anyone in CT. have \'VIPER\' on their plates? I am taking delivery on my '94 RT/10 here in CT. in mid-Sept. The only vanity plate I am considering is simply 'VIPER.' Before I even bother with the DMV, I figured that I would ask the board - anyone in CT. have this plate already? Has anyone...

    What should I offer for this.... Price games

    Re: What should I offer for this.... Price games 45K too high for a '96 with 13,000 miles. Then again, if you love the car, take it. These cars are rare, and a few thousand here or there is subjective. Ask him to go down to 41K or 42K - say that you are passionate about the car, but being...

    Carbon Fiber door handle surround for gen 1?

    Adam, I saw the best handle surrounds I've seen - but they are chrome. Amer. Dream Motorsports - they screw in, replacing the old surround. They have an unreal looking Viper logo etched on. Dave. (CT.)

    Chroming Three Spoke Wheels?

    I saw Yve's Chrome Tri's and was very impressed - so much so that I might want to look into polishing or chroming mine when I get my '94 in September. What is the process to do this? What does it cost, can anyone recommend someone in the area (CT.)? Generally, will the wheels come out great...

    Gen 1 adding hood louvers?

    I'm glad that a lot of you guys posted on my Gen. 1 commentary. Many of you mentioned the improved hood on the Gen. 2, and have made updates. I thought I saw somewhere lovers that can be affixed to Gen. 1 hoods? Are they non-vented and just for appeal, how do you affix them? Is this risky...

    Interior door carpet replacement?

    There is a current post that touches on this upgrade. Many of us feel that the carpeted door area on the inside is unattractive and dated. Has anyone customized this with a good looking replacement cover? Please make recommendations, if some company manufactured covers to swap out that...
