Always bring crazy ideas to the aslyum inmates first...

So I just bought a beautiful 1986 Caprice Classic. For the uninitiated its an old school cop car. Problem is that it doesn't have a hood ornament. If you've ever driven a big car like this you'd understand that the hood ornament is very helping for aiming the car down the road. So I've deicided to add a special modification.

I want to make an add a hood ornament to the front of the car and have it be something to identify the driver as a star wars fan and specifically a smuggler. Has to be weatherproof and in the right size range. I was thinking something like a little pewter falcon model or something to that effect.

I apologize in advance if this happened to already be answered in the FAQ.

Hmmmm, nice car.

That car has BALLS.

Hood ornament? You need one of those little, silver women.

That was too funny!

I think the Millenium Falcon would be the best symbol for a Star Wars Smuggler's vehicle.

If you could make something that looked like a smuggler laughing at a BH and Jedi, both knocked down and froze from concussion shot, that would be awesome.

On second thought, skip the jedi, nobody wants to see any more of those. (Yes, I know I'm a BH right now, but trust me I'm not like those crybabies in the BH forum. Smuggler always, BH for now.)

I thought the NGE couldn't be any worse than the CU, but I was wrong.

Oh, I got it! A bottle of spice! No, ...an illegal core booster....or, or, or....a molecular clamp - it ain't worth nothing any way!

Seriously - I think it is Rawcliff pewter that makes a statue of the Millinium Falcon that is about 3 inches high. Check you local gift or card store like Halmark - that or a sci-fi store. Cost will be about $30-$40.

It is my intention to commandeer one of these ships, pick up a crew in Mos Eisley, raid, pillage, plunder, and otherwise pilfer my weasly black guts out......wait, I'm a smuggler - back to crafting spice! Ahh, crap! Can't even do that anymore...guess I'll just sell FP. Can someone please tell me when Han did that in ANY of the movies?

Link #1, Link #2, the ships actually look very nice, didn't really expect they would.

If you don't want me to "play the forums," then I suggest you make time playing the game more rewarding and less repetitive than "playing" here!
