It's a pretty seperate topic - bodywork versus rims, but if you feel like it should be merged, go ahead.

While I've figured out my rims for the most part now, I've run into another problem. After detecting a bit of rust in the wheelwells, I decided to clean them out and give the rust a sand-and-gal job. Unfortunately, that's where the problem has shown up. Being a '73 HQ, its' been picking up dirt in i...

New rims are expensive - unless you want some POS alloys, to get some good 'muscle car' rims such as Cragars or Welds you're looking at about 3000-4000 dollars, with another 3000 for the wide tires they're generally designed for. These rims I've got as-is have the wide tires, but since they're not -...

The color I'm doing it in is a Plymouth color, "Limelight Green", best known for coming out as a popular color on the Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda; so I guess this' a bit in the middle ground between two tones. (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/60/1972_Plymouth_Barracuda_340.jpg , if...

Given that my Holden HQ's rims had started to rust around the wheelnuts (apparently more from strays pissing on them than anything else, but shrug), I got myself iin gear in nipped the problem in the bud. Anyways, here's what I'm doing to them so far: -Sanding down and removing all rust, grease and ...

Different body lengths, the montecarlo has a 'tigher' rear end and a Camaro-like rear wheel swell. Montecarlo's boot section comes down more, its' lines are curvier and its' rear lights are different, it has a roof that's more fastback-ish, and overall the original Monaro has a much straighter shape...

Imo, they seem a little too pedestrian, as if they're just a japanese car with a european name on them.

I like volkswagen and BMW more when it comes to european brands, myself.

Most wanted has cleaner graphics and better tracks (none of those boring as hell spaghetti lameness tracks that you get in Kenji's district where all you're doing is hairpin turns for the whole damn race), but absolutely lame customization options and retarded gameplay balance (for example, the Golf...

As a throwback to Underground, the Spoiler is kept seperate from the body of the car itself, color-wise. Most cars look better without spoilers, but if you need to have a spoiler on it, try to approximate the 'bottom' color of the car as much as possible to the vinyl. Optionally, go for a two-tone e...

I'm talking about Need For Speed "My stock chrysler cobalt beat you fully modded lotus elise on a race which was nothing but 90 degree hairpins" AI, not real opponents.

That's Yumi, isn't it? But she only makes performance parts cheaper, not cars.

I haven't brought any parts - I noticed this when I was doing the stupid "fill your garage with car type X" rewards.

For some reason, cars seem to sell for more money than they cost to buy. Could be a semiuseful exploit, though the margins aren't very high.

Already tried the corvette and it got passed by a F*CKING TUNER ON A STRAIGHT.

Mc /Uninstall Donalds, methinks.

For some reason, even though I easily won all the races in the first time through career with the Hemicuda, the new one is acting like a complete heap of shiznit on the stacked deck races. It's slower to accelerate than even the stupid lambos on downhill races, won't powerslide even at 200 mph and w...

Yeah, what I'm saying is that you don't need to the start the game over for these, apparently.

Speaking of which, how can you find out how many defensive races you've done? There's no statistic for it.

I noticed that you still get challenged in random encounters by gangs even if you're taken over all their territories (I've beaten two TFK nubs even though I have beaten their leader already); and also that you'll still get attacked by rival gangs even if you've taken every territory over. Defensive...

I don't see how it should matter since all the unlocks are stored locally in your account, aren't they? If you simply had copied account/alias that you didn't use online you should be able to unlock all the stuff on that one and then use a validator to force carbon to accept it. There's a bunch of s...

It'll work for all of them, I expect, as long as you can get the Camo vinyls or any other vinyl that is fully editable and covers the car 100%.

I reckon you could even get away with resizing one of the "shapes" vinyls and then colors that instead so it covers the whole car.

Something that's always bugged me in the Underground engine games is that they don't seem to have a full spectrum of colors - there's no Rossa Corsa-ish red or general lee orange, for example. But I've found a way to get some considerably more vibrant colors when in editing mode. To do this, unlock ...

After racing some stupidass overly long circuit race against cheating AI that magically pulls ahead of me on straights with it's POS tier 1 tuner cars versus my tier 3 exotic, I get involved in a stupidly long crappy police chase that takes about 2 hours to finish and then the firetruck idiot enemy ...

You'll wanna test to see if the car is 'heavy' first. Try going entering a 'wide' 90 degree turn letting off the gas and turning sideways with tires set to grippy. If you hear your car's tires squeel and you pull through the turn smoothly, your car's heavy and you should leave them on grippy. If you...

I'd say the Koenigsegg, but if you use it you'll find good reason why it can only be accessed in quickrace. It has the speed of most wanted's murcielago with the turning of most wanted's elise.

Given how crappy Carbon's MP engine, cheat detection, antilag and um... everything is, could someone produce a savegame patcher that would set all the online reward tokens to complete and unlock all of the online rewards?

Is there anyway to trigger more of these or come across more of them? It seems like I only got like two even though I'm through most of the game and I need 20 for that corvette.
