what does a " licence plate" have to do with making it a none sleeper...
i dont even have rims...or exhaust..the 2 "looks" of making it a non sleeper..
i can guarantee u..if you just saw this car on the street...would you think it had a SC under the hood??? i highly doubt it...

guess you dont understand what a "sleeper" is

lol youre car is STILL, a sleeper. he jus means that by sleeper your car shouldnt show any signs of car enthusiast and then bam SC. your jdm plates and relocated plate show some signs of enthusiasm but still, its a sleeper!

can it still be a sleeper with jus the oem lip kit?!

You want to see a true sleeper: (hoping this is the right picture someone told me it is I can't see it at work) - If its a beetle then woot. If not -.- sorry wrong one.

Otherwise Super Sleeper Beetle.
