    The Pimp My Ride 240

    The show's still on here. I figured I'd open this up for discussion.

    So far:

    I wish they kept the front kit on it that was there when the got it. The new front looks worse.

    That hood scoop is KILLING ME. Did he have a CF hood before?

    The color's pretty sweet.

    They ripped out the strut bars, etc.

    Are they doing anything on the motor?

    At least they're not using chrome rims. They used legit 5Zigen rims with Pradas, which is pretty sweet. The color contrast is pretty nice as well.

    That wing bugs me tho, I do like the stock spoiler more. Or maybe a CF Drift wing. Oh well.

    The graphics are graphics...love or hate. I don't think people should hate on graphics just because they are graphics, I think it depends on the car.

    I want that trunk. I want all that goodness in my car.

    Overall I don't think they killed it.

    So let's discuss this.

    and please, no "that car is rice" comments, becuase that's just pointless to post.

      First, it was a black hood to match his black trunk lid since he did a swap. It was not a C/F hood.. but they did rice that car out.

      All they did to the engine was a dress up kit, the wing is the ugliest thing I've ever seen in my life, and they should paint it the color of the car, along with the rims, and mirrors.

      Lose the graphics, the green is good lookin though!

        I'm almost 100% sure it was a CF hood. In one of the shots you could see the weave. It had legit hood pins and a scoop.

        If I was the kid, I'd ask for that hood back and put that one on.

            Damn that was about the nicest trunk i've seen them do. Hate the hood scoops. Hate the wing. I'm pretty sure they threw in that APC crap because of some sort of sponsorship. Kick ass show car though!

              Humm...I was 100% sure it wasnt a CF hood...??? You can still put pins in other kinds of hoods...

              I like the paint, interior, and especially the trunk. I think they did a good job making it into a "NFSU" car. But I also agree with the guys original body kit was better.

                    Link didnt work for me...but I still found the thread. At least they did give him back the CF hood-that you were right about.

                      but he also said they kept about 1-2K worth of his old parts, such as his old headunit, alarm, and that.

                      They probably sell those parts to get some of the money they use to pay to do up the cars, and he has to pay the taxes on the work and items they bought for his car.

                        shit's ugly..

                        the hood is hideous, the front kit is too. The seats blow. Who needs 3 x-box's.. The paint job with decals, I dont like decals, but I guess they're not too bad. The wing, it's way too big and should be the color of the car. The mirrors should be green as well the rims are sweet, along with the tires..

                            Refer to the link I posted midway through the page. I'm too lazy to repost the pics.
