I'm not Paul, but I don't think this would work against radar, or even
give any noticable effects under Shadowrun rules; if you really want to
use it for more than just flavor, I'd say it gives the vehicle a +1
Signature modifier against thermographic sensors only (and since vehicle
sensors are a lot more than just thermal, the bonus wouldn't work against
them).
