Why would you actually write "Dragon" on your car?

If it spits fire plainly something needs to be adjusted...

I thought I was in for a treat when I read the subject, but no.

God they're awful :smt078 That's not so much modification but abuse.

*cough cough*

No idea.....

I did see an interesting one once involving a picture of a dragon on the side of a car and a noz purge valve where the nostrils were, so when the noz was purged it looked like smoke coming out its nostrils. And I think there was one with a dragons heads around the back bumper somewhere else, and a flame kit on the exhaust to make it look like it was breathing fire.

I was expecting to see some nice examples of tastefully moded FTO's, these are terrible. So for those of you expecting to see some nice examples check these out.
Well the first 2 are anyway

The car itself is nice but the interior is a bit OTT, too much orange. Well for my liking anyway. Everyone to there own.
:lol: :lol:
I like the rest of the car just not mad on the bonet on this one.

I was considering this one but didn't go for it in the end. I liked the lambo doors thought it'd be a very unusual feature, especially here anyway.

And it's 220bhp. I thought a custom paint job like that one was only good for 10 or so bhp

Its strange, I've seen a lot advertised for 220 bhp, how come they all pick that figure? You'd think the odd one would say 215 or 225 but its all 220. Think its very weird or just a big coincidence.
