Chopped: car lowered by part of the body being removed... usually the
pillars (requiring smaller windshield, etc.)

Channeled: car lowered by modifying suspension components.  Causes the
whole car to "hunker down".

Nosed: chrome removed from front end

Decked: same thing for the rear.

These are from fuzzy memory... there was an article in Car & Driver
recently about the designer of the Prowler, and it had some of these terms
in it.
