Default Car show display ideas?

Well I'm driving down to the US this weekend to show with a bunch of friends and I was looking for display ideas to spice up my car a bit.

I plan do the clasic ice bucket, bottle of wine, and wine glasses display...

Any lighting or other idea you know of or have seen?

Thanks

Usually a hot girl in a bikini on top of the hood works good...for me at least.

What type of car show? Is it a HIN-type show where it's dark inside?

get a bunch of cotton and put it behind the rear wheels, that way it looks like your 250 is doing a *cough* burnout

So far I'm going to run the "clear ice bucket with wine" probally toss a white LED in there.

I'm going to bring a battery pack charger to power my interior lights too.

Some guy did a fishtank incorporated in the interior.

I saw a spinning Subwoofer in the back of a car once...think it was 15"

And he had a 21 farat capacitor.

you should buy a lot of champagne glasses and place them on the roof or trunk of your car and make a little pyramid. you know, a little homage to the first lexus LS (too bad you can't do it on the IS's curved hood)
