Default Show or go

Ok my "friend" is a ricer and was asked "would you drive a 500whp foxbody mustang with rust and primar?" he replyed no i wouldnt drive a piece of ****. His view is that a car has to look good to be driven by him no matter how much power. So what do you put first? power or look? personaly i couldnt care less how my 1st car looks as long as it is reliable and has some power.

agreed....looks dont need to ever be changed after a car is lowered though. other than STOCK EVO TAILS they are gay but they cost $500+ for good ones

I would drive it with primer on it. It would actually look sexy!

I started mine out with show first...the ladies love that...but as I have been finishing up the looks I have been blending in the "go" lately as well...so i think you have to blend both show and go together as you mod it.

Yep most definately.

I'm in debate with myself on this question. I say it depends on the car. A foxbody mustang??? Junk it... LOL Unless it's powered by a TRUE Hemi (Not this CRAP they call a Hemi nowadays). MY G54B powered Conquest... Shyt I'll take the airdam off and run primered as long as it's going fast enough that all you see is the grey blur... (Or black depending on the primer used... Oooo maybe a rust colored primer...)
