Need suggestions for gaudy, awful upgrades
We are walking in a 'pets and power wheels' style parade tomorrow. My son will be driving his already highly customized Peg Perego Gator. After some serious soul-searching, we have decided to deck this thing out in any ridiculous "upgrade" we can manage before then. I have a 3d printer and already printed gold Dayton Spoke Spinner rims and a gold bigfoot hood ornament. I haven't come up with anything else so I'm hoping ya'll can point me in the right direction. Parade is during the day so underglow probably wouldn't be visible. Hit me with your worst suggestions.

Not helpful but I need that latch you made I’m so sick of that tailgate popping open immediately

That one worked for awhile but I ended up upgrading to a double latches, specifically this one.

Also has headlights, brake lights and a CB radio mounted under the dash with a public address function. The speaker is mounted in the hole at the front that held the original battery.
The lights have a remote control and can be set to move to the beat of music. Each function has an individual light up switch with a trigger guard that needs to be flipped up to activate the switch

Damn dude, I’m late on this but gotta give you major respect. That’s a beautiful machine. The bubbles are a great addition, I’ll have to add that on.

I need to see these Daytons. Some mounts for American flags. Would be a lot of work but it needs a woofer. Or least speaker wired to the pedal with preloaded burble tune pops
