im sorry 123vette and some people arnt going to like what im about to do but sweetvette thats a rip off, 35$ for used aluminum rims...you can get brand new ones from canada for 5$ maybe dontspamme or sensoryx can buy them for you and send um to you for like 10$ if not then they might trade for something if not then pay 35$ but its a rip off just to pay 35$ for something that can be bought so much cheaper...

after a long night of thinking, and counting my money, i'm not going to go hobby grade, it would cost to much, and it would go just as fast as what i had originally planed...

evo board conversion
4 AAA liths
aftermarket motor
carbon fiber decks
aluminum rims
and maybe a custom carbon fiber chassis.


i'm wondering if i should leave it rwd, or put awd in it.

once again, i'm open to all sugestions

Okay cool yeah that setup would look cool also. If u have a corvette then just leave it rwd for the realism of it i guess.

the guy did't give it to me for free, i bought it off of him for $30. We're good friends, and we've been into xmodding for ever, but he needed the cash and i needed the car.
