Here's a mod I have recently lusted over.

*** happened to the windshield? Cool pic though. My biggest mod was the valve stem caps with the stupid snake logo. Did not feel much in the seat of the pants in accelleration though!!

B&M short shifter on my Z06 back in the day. It's the reason I won't put one in my Viper. Clunky to shift and loud as hell. So silly. I put it in, drove around the block, pulled it back off and sold it on ebay. :p

I bought a chrome "Viper GTS" license plate holder off ebay for the back of the Viper. When it got here it didn't even fit on the back of the car, it was too tall. The seller said it sold a lot of them to Viper owner and never had a complaint :rolleyes:

I have the Corsa cat-back and Random-Tech cats on my car and love the combo. Mr. Hemi-head and I installed them in a day and they totally transformed the car from UPS truck to big bad American Muscle.

Put the MGW gripper shift knob, oil cap and dipstick handle on. The shift knob is really nice and the cap and handle look great and are as easy as you can get to install.

I bought the snake-oyl shift and e-brake boots in yellow to match the car. The color is really nowhere even close to Viper Race Yellow and they were a major PITA to put on (involves cutting and gluing and stretching and.....blah). People seem to dig 'em though, so I live with 'em.

Try the Hurst. Much improved over stock.

Re: What mod did you LUST after...and when you finally got it....well...it just SUCKE

I was excited to purchase new emblems for the car that I got from R & D distributing. (i got the chrome rt/10 emblems)

And well... a month later, the rear of my viper now says

"D DGE VI E T/10"

they are falling off one by one! :( very embarassing

I too got the R&D emblems. You have to be careful to remove all wax etc from the surface before applying. I used 3M™ General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner.

Even with a thorough cleaning, I still had some peeling, especially in the curved "bumper" area where your letters fell off. I used a toothpick and / or Q-tip to apply a dab of 3M PLASTIC AND EMBLEM ADHESIVE. That nailed them down.
