By using a skin, e.g. Gurjon.
OR : http://www.navitotal.com/forums/showthread.php?962-How-To-s-Tutorials-and-Tweaks&p=22611#post22611
The last time I checked, I admit, some time ago :girl_flag_of_truce: the links were alive.

I remember Irinuca posted an interesting method. I will try to find it.

Another 2 methods (I think these are similar to the method from Irinuca) but the authors are unknown to me

1.
Look in IGO8/data.zip/gfx for a file called car.mdl
Rename car.mdl in xxx.mdl and copy a new car.mdl in place (when there is none other like car_spaceschip. mdl)

This file should contain some .mdl car files (can't check) : [Please Register or Login to download file]


2.

See post #8. Yes, I know it's the Dimka skin but it does work with cars. Don't think that the Kikker skin works with cars.
