Arrow Challenger Accessories, the same old same old!

If you've been searching the web as extensively as I have you've already come to the inescapable conclusion that everyone out there in cyber space is offering the same things for our 08-10 Dodge Challengers. Honestly I haven't seen this much repition in a long long time so I'm wondering if any of you all have come across a web site that offers some truly unique items for our cars? From what I've seen, everything in the engine compartment that can be chromed has been. Also it doesn't matter if were talking about cheap items such as "billet" dress up items or superchargers, its all the same from what I can see.
SO I'm challenging you all to find an obscure website that offers stuff for us that no body else has up to now.
Hey I got money burning a hole in my pocket try and get me excited about parting with it.

Thanks!

Doozle,
this is where customizing yourself comes in. i don't think you are going to find anything nonstandard on the web.

from my experience the only engine cover they make for the v6 is carbon fiber which i personally cant stand carbon fiber so by researching the 3.5L Chrysler on the web i found that i could make my own and went for it.
i also wanted the 70 go wing and not that ricer looking go wing that Chrysler makes for our cars so thanks to deserthorizons being the first i found out what was needed and how to install it. i also made my own six-pack emblems for the hood.

remember the old saying "necessity is the mother of invention"

Well Doozle, you failed to mention what you are looking for, engine compartment, exterior, interior.....whatever. As you said, there are a lot of parts out there for a Challenger for sure (of course not as many as there are for the Camaro and Mustang owners....but whats new, it was that way back in the day as well). And, as wp23n pointed out...when it comes to customizing...think outside the box (or web) and come up with your own ideas to make your Challenger truly yours. One of the best mods I have done so far was replacing the auto console plate with a manual boot. Not a "bolt-on" for sure, but easy none the less, and I got the idea from one of the other Challenger blogs. So you might want to try surfing this site as well as others to see what Challenger owners have come up with.
And, try looking at the first generation Challenger for ideas as well.....I have rear window louvers that were first offered on the '70 Challenger, and many of us have mounted '70 script style emblems on the front fenders just like the original Challenger had. (Of course Dodge is now offering this for the RT Classic)
Be original with your ideas and make your Challenger truly yours........
