Lightbulb I am in need of advice!

Hi Car World,
I am in need of your advice for what I should do with this 2002 Navigator. It is missing tires, has white painted seats (white out), black sharpy lines down the center. It was supposed to be good but i messed up. I have ideas to put a tv in the back with woofers. Tvs in the seats, tint the windows, put rims on, re paint it a color for inside and outside and lower it.

I am a biginer and will need some ideas for what to also do, and maybe advice on the things listed above.

Thank you

Re: I am in need of advice!

get the roof rack

change the paint.. (strip the old one)

detail the interior(airbrush/can spray) for the bigger parts

buy some NEW rims & axles.. or get it from your unused MODELS.

Re: I am in need of advice!

okay. first of all if your using white out and black sharpie as your sources of *pimping out* try again. nothing good (usually) can come out of black sharpie and white out. have you ever heard of model paint? go to your local hobby shop and they can help you out. ask them questions that's why they're there. do not use sharpie. you know what just put your sharpies away in a corner or something. do you get bored at the office and use office supplies to do your cars? i mean don't mean to come down hard but yeah, no office supplies!

Re: I am in need of advice!

no cf hood. it's not a japanese car. and when your at the hobby shop get some brushes. and i recomend those small bottle jars by model masters and get acrylic. it's easy to clean off the brush. (this is all for the interior i'm talking about) when painting the exteior use an airbursh or spray can. no brushes.
