Pimp My Ride!

[Ldub]

If Xzibit came tto YOUR front door, what would you like to see him do to your VX?

Stay the f*** AWAY from my VX would be my advice to him.

I do not like aquairiums said Ldub...
It might spill water on my hub.
(I believe that's a quote from "Horton hires a ho")

I would pass on that too. But would rather have Extreme 4x4 get their hands dirty on my VX - I have emailed them about it but heard nothing yet.

Yep, Eric is right, NEVER have watched the show, not sure where MTV is on the dial. But at least now when I read here about pimping your ride I know what it means. Now would someone please explain what bump means.

Yeah, if I had a second one that was busted up and ugly then i would let X have it. but otherwise I say Chip foose or Extreme 4x. OR even better give me an arse load of money and let me do what I want!!!!!!

PMR would equal lots of stereo equip and monitors plus some 20's
They do no fab work...only bolt on crap which means nothing for the VX.

Of the two I'd go with exreme4x4...however after seeing a lot of their projects self destruct ...well at least they know how to fab. If they'd do an SAS and throw a couple of ProRock 60's under it, I'd be a happy camper!
Maybe we could get Dallas (StinkyFab) his own show...he has done some sweet work on his Zu's and some of the top comp buggies...mad fab skills and he knows Zu's!

I would NEVER let them touch my VX. I have seen those featured rides around town - believe me, they look like crap in no time. Bumper cars at a carnival would be a good similarity.

Really? You wouldn't want a rail-gun welded to the roof?

Or a 37" LCD screen that drops down from the headliner, with a PS3 tucked away in the jack cubby?

Or remove the rear seat, build a raised, clear plexiglass floor that covers the rear cargo area and fill it with scorpions?

Or build a circular conveyor belt going around the rear compartment and have one of those sushi restaurant setups?

Or remove the front and rear circular driving lights/red reflector lenses and install extendable javelins that pop out and puncture the bumpers of cars that park too close?

Or paint large grommet-holes up the hood and roofline, then paint large shoelaces going across and through all of them, with maybe a large Nike "swoosh" on both doors?

Or...okay, just heated seats and windows that work?

Now would someone please explain what bump means.

BUMP

It's just an easy way to add a new post to a thread to get it back to the top of the most recent post list. BUMP it back to the top...

Back on topic...

I wouldn't even let Chip Foose touch my VX. I have nightmares about him getting ahold of my Cobra and replacing all the NOS/original parts with crate/aftermarket parts. It just kills me when he takes a family heirllom and replaces all the history with bling. I can't imagine what he would do with the cladding, the hood, the moon on the back door...all the things that make the VX unique. And HIS WHEELS! I'm sorry, I DO NOT like Foose wheels, especially on a classic muscle car. They just look wrong. I, like a few others on this board, plan to keep my VX (almost) totally stock. I still have the original cat back and air filter! Please DON"T Pimp my Ride or OverHaul it!
