Real ship modding...

In light of it being generally unacceptable to cloak my Eagle, is there a paint-shop anywhere that can redecorate my ship and make it a little easier on the eye?
Then again, a propper tuning specialist to supply a K&N air filter, maybe a dump valve and a sporty exhaust system to get an extra 30 or 40% from my engine coupled with a better roaring sound instead of the boring old whine would be good.
Then I'll lower the Eagle. 40mm should sort the handling or maybe just slam the suspension with a full 65mm. New front and rear wings might look nice and some 21" alloys... Tho i don't think i'll be asking the manufacturers when the soft-top with be available.
Last of all is the stereo? The factory-mounts just suck! A good ICE shop is in order. Some 170mm Sony Xplods and a pair of 300mm Xplod subs. A nice Clarion head unit with a few CD changers and a DAB tuner and i'll be cruising to the sounds of "Radio Corsairs" late into the night.
Now which industrial station produces Nitrous Oxide?...

well I have to agree with you on that.
with the game X-beyond the frontier/X-tension you can
place a " marker " on your ship(a small jpeg picture)
that would personalise your ship which makes the whole thing
a bit nicer, unfortunatelly, the X(perience) hasn`t gone multiplayer yet (

Actually, I not got the Japanese motor, I got the British Rover, tho Rover was owned by Honda a coupla years back... Oh how I love turbos...

Still, a nice green glow along the underside of my Eagle would be nice, perhaps i can harness the gack that comes out of Fort Bush...

Yo HC wazzup?
My ultimate ship would be a lowered Dagger, with an over-powered engine (like a Falcon V-12) mounted in the bay. Coupled twin webbers on the Rheinland-Benz Advanced Thruster MKII, and a FatHacker exhaust, this ship would be perfect to run the loop in Dublin. A black matt exterior, red leather in the cockpit, and a laid back cockpit chair with decked out cosy sleeping quarters in the back would make it perfect for those times when the Bountys are after you so bad you just gotta sleep in space, preferably with a piece of tail picked up somewhere in Kusari or Rheinland. There'd be a Laughing Buddha stuck to the dash, a black toothpick between my teeth, and a patch over my eye...and I'd be laughing all the way from Buffalo.
By the way - I got the stereo problem figured out - next time your fighting Hammerheads in your Dagger in the middle of Gamma, make sure you're tuned in to Spraydio.com - Krakow Metal or Santa Cruz Punk You can adjust the volume just right - keeps the edge going when you hear that "Clunk. Donk. Shieds Failed" message
Anybody else indulging in some creative wishful thinking?
Slake.

My ship would look like a mix of a Titan and a Saber with the speed of an Drake. The fire power of a battle ship. Double monted thrusters. Twin CD/T slots. DVD, LHS, satlit TV, souround sound, gun mill skin, and an elpaco seat cover.

I just want mine to be personalized.


Or have one of those banners in the back like you see those planes at the beach.



I could see mine now (Eat At Joes) *with flashing neon lights*
