New old car... Photoshop anyone???

Just got back from Texas on Friday eveing, went to pick up another viper. This one is older (93) and has a decent amount of add-ons including the hardtop and windows in the pic. It is also an RT-10 (convertible style) like the other in my pic. It has some stuff done to the engine (ported head, cam, headers, etc) and made 46X rear wheel hp and a little over 500 rear wheel tourque on a "conservative" tune. I didn't need another but pretty much couldn't pass it up the deal as it was only $23k. I figured it would be better to mess with this car at the track than take my other car which has low miles.

Here is a link to the exhaust sound (stumpled across this on the viper forums):

So far I like the car; just ordered up a power steering cooler and a line lock for it. Seems a bit faster than my black viper but we haven't lined them up. Hoping to get this thing out to the brainerd road race course quite frequently. Looking at drilled/slotted rotors, road race tires, and racing brake pads now.

I have added a side pic. With the top on, it looks like the car needs a wing. Anyone good with photoshop who can add one??? I am also considering stripes, what do you think and what color (have seen black, sliver, and white stripes)?

If anyone is interested in one of these, now is a great time to buy. I will probably be selling my black one pretty soon aswell.

Here are a couple pics. Car is dirty but I guess you can't tell...
