Hey guys, thought I'd share my LEGO car dock with everyone.
First about the phone:
HTC Droid Incredible running
2.15 Radio
CM6 9/17 Nightly
With a shell/holster case combo
Then the vehicle:
2002 Honda Civic EX 2 door coupe
Pioneer stereo system with AUX/Bluetooth/CD/iPod/XM Radio support
The LEGO set:
Jedi Starfighter
And without further delay, the pictures:
(Sorry about the glare, didn't realize the sunroof was cover was open until halfway through)
Yeah, the R2D2 legs acting as the front bumper to the phone isn't the prettiest of options, but I felt that between making the dock as small and as unobtrusive as possible, aesthetics, and functionality... this option filled the first and last options the best out of any other combination of parts.
Now for the ultimate in awesomeness, I decided to try out putting a movie on the Dinc then streaming the audio through the bluetooth. There are some issues with the audio being weird. I don't think its the blueooth itself, I think its the fact that the 1 hour episode I put on there is almost 1.5GB and ridiculously hi-def. I'll try out another movie this weekend. Heres some pictures featuring an episode of Spartacus: Blood and Sand.
So far, "structural integrity tests" have proven that this baby can take an amazing amount of shock. Took a two hour drive with my girlfriend and a friend and drove around the rural parts of my area. There was a few bumpy dirt roads and the whole time this thing kept together and more importantly kept the phone steady.
I used to have this awesome desktop dock for it too, but I tore it down the other week. Maybe I'll rebuild if I get tired of this one o.o

Hopefully wikitude drive goes live soon, then I'll need a dock that let's the camera see the road, and this gives me ideas.
