Halloween costumes for cars???

Does anyone know someplace that sells Halloween costumes for cars, either local to the Southern NH area or online? We are going to a Halloween tailgate party this weekend and there are prizes for the best car costume.

I've never seen it, but there have been many a car shows held on Halloween I have been to and people decorate their cars... it's all home made though.

They make teeth like that for the Miata. Some folks have those teeth, buck teeth, and some gold teeth :0

this may be a dumb question but what material is that made from? i think that's a great costume and would look perfect on a NG (if you don't mind me stealing your idea).

Talking Sharp......

They are just white poly cut from ice cream pail lids, and stuck on with a dab of black silicone.

Ghetto, but effective!

I like the teeth and fin idea! That would look so cool! And it sounds pretty easy to do.

So it sounds like there could be a business idea in here somewhere, huh? We could even go all out and sell expensive costume kits, made of carbon fiber, for the expensive, eccentric people!

Anyone else dressing up their car for Halloween, besides Herbie the Love 8?

I'd love to have those teeth on the 8 as kids come around the corner on Halloween night with my car peeking out from the side of the house in the dark. All you would see are the teeth floating in the air hahaha!!!!!!!

I wish I could dress up my car for Halloween. I'm being even so I'd definitely do this whole "Garden of Eden" deal inside... vines and all. I don't know what the outside would be. Unfortunately I'm in school on Halloween so I won't be near my baby.

An apple tree with a snake on a limb, centered on top of the car.

I was thinking - sharks have been known to eat license plates, right? Whose Nascar # would be a good one to put on a fake plate to stick in the shark's teeth? (I don't folliw Nascar)

Hmmm, since I'd rather not have my car keyed when I turn my back, I think I'll stick with Jeff Gordon's #24!

Good luck with the glow-in-the-dark thing!
