PIMPED UP golf carts
 
What have you done to your golf cart to really make it your own? I don't mean getting a Yesteryear Cart, but starting out with a basic cart and adding some personal touches.

I have seen carts with fans, and also shelves that attach to the ceiling of the roof.

How creative have you been?

PIMPED UP is a bit of an exaggeration...
 
I have a 2008 Yamaha. It's a pretty plain looking cart, and I have done a few things to it, but wouldn't exactly call it pimped out.
I added the wood-grain dash with the doors on the 2 "glove Boxes", and the sweater-shelf you referenced above.
I added automotive-style side view mirrors to both sides.
It's a 4-seater, so I also had to add the golf bag holder in the back. The way it's built, if I have clubs in it you can't see the rear lights, so I tapped into the existing lights and put two on the rear of the roof.
And I added seat belts for 4.
I'm happy with it.

Not to start the seat belt arugument again but kudos to you for doing that!

Bigger wheels?
 
There is plenty of clearance to put bigger wheels on my cart.

I assume this would give it a smoother ride, and increase top speed a bit?

Apart from reducing acceleration, can you think of any downsides?

I'm thinking of another couple of inches, not car wheels :-)

Never heard that term "pimped up". I think that translates to 'Decked Out" in Ohioese.

Some of my favorites are the UPS truck, the firetruck and the Jim Beam Comfort Station.

But perhaps you meant gadgetry instead of overall theme.
