Re: what makes a sleeper?
You're just a fast ricer, if you decide to put cheap chineese body panels and lights on your ride. Sure you might trick people, but you're just a guy with a fast clownshoe.
I've walked a late 90's mustang gt on the bottle when my galant was pretty stock. It wasn't even close, and he was sporting mis-matched body panels, and that whole gay theme. So I guess that kinda de-bunks some of your thoughts that a sleeper is the opposite of what it "used" to be. Can't get much nastier than a V8 on the bottle.
Anyways kids, like many of you have said. Leaving a car completley stock looking on the outside, and inside is what a sleeper is.
You can get in my galant and not even know it is turbocharged, etc...

I do prefer the stock sleeper look though. Bonus points if it looks the same with the hood popped and doors/trunk open.
