We have been adding a ton of pictures to our Flickr account and one of the first responses we got was in reference to a shot of Jonathan's 2007 Mustang that we test fitted with a set of 20" KMC Nova's. The response among the employees here was mixed. Some said it looked too much like a matchbox car. I for one liked the way they looked!...

So you're getting a little bored with the stock performance of your 08-09 Challenger SRT8, R/T, or SE . After searching the internet & perusing our site you've decided that a Tuner ( Programmer ) is on the short list of "to do" items.

This morning Jonathan installed a Diablosport tune on our Challenger. I was out there snapping a few pics of him doing the install and when we were done he said "Alright, let's take her for a test drive!" That's when a light bulb went off in my head!

You gotta love auto makers. Their engineers & design artists spend countless hours making almost everything about thier cars attractive from bumper to bumper. Notice I said almost. The trunk is often the most neglected area of an automobile. Luckily Dodge happened to agree & has quite a nice looking carpeted "Challenger" logo trunk...

Pedals can dress up any vehicle. Especially when the factory pedals are your regular run of the mill black rubber pedals. We decided to dress up the interior with the Challenger Pedal Kit (part# DCP-82211154 ). Installation on the kit was pretty straight forward and easy. Installation requires two very simple tools: cup of soapy water and flathead screwdriver...

These sill plates ( Part# DCP-82211234 ) are a very easy way to dress up all Challengers. Installation takes 5-10 minutes tops. The sill plates are held in place by three strips of adhesive tape. Before installing the sill plates make sure you clean the painted surface. To help the adhesive stick, you need to have a good clean surface. Do not use any...
