Maybe red out the rear lights and rounding or shaving some of the front lip may help add some VIP lights under the floor to make it pop...and some curtain with a hint of tint on them...

I know this isn't on road, but I was more into offroad racing. Whether it was nitro or brushless. Here's just a few of them.



That's not all of them. Believe me, These put together would cost as much as a real car lol
