Flashy hair salons also have one where you look at yourself with a new
'do. TRUST THE COMPUTER... THE COMPUTER IS YOUR FRIEND (aiee!!!)

Myself any my brother have been tossing around an idea like this, but it
would take _any_ car, and you could throw expensive mods at it and see
what it looks like (mag wheels, lowered, blown, funky paint etc)
It seems to be taking an awful long time though :-(

I'm guessing a wireframe would look best, and be easiest to have a
computer reproduce. My only stumps are getting to all the different cars
in order to make accurate body measurements :-)
I suppose I should finish the code first :-) :-)
And if I ever do, the TR4 will be first, because it's in my back yard. :-)
