    Pimp My Ride y'aall!

    That car I'm converting to electric? If you want to, pimp it out for me by modifying the image below:



    The above was drawn to scale. Roughly 6.15 pixels for every real life inch.

    It's how my car was in 2005 before I started modifying it in real life. In a few days, I will post an image of what I'm doing to its body design(most of it is functional for reducing aerodynamic drag, and not so much as aesthetic). This image I will post in a few days shows what it will look like when finished. I already have my image, but I want to see what you guys think of on your own. Feel free to make custom parts for the car, modify it in any way, shape or form. Be creative, even give it a whole new paint job, and use any program you want.

    If no one feels up to it, oh well. I'm still posting the custom design of the car in a few days.

    Here is the car in real life as of Summer 2005:

      I would suggest a giant demon skull on the hood, with some Rob Zombie-esque demons flying off the sides and the back. The rest of the car should be black. I wish I had time to draw all that for you.

        The Cyclops having only one eye, needed to seek shelter from the harsh sun. The shadow cast by the spheres gave him temporary respite.

          I suggest a burning american flag and a marajuana leaf.

            Can't go wrong with black flames.
            ...and that's why.

              I don't think being anti-big government and pro-personal freedom is quite the same as being anti-American.

              What else can you do?

                Do NOT put a confederate flag on that car; it will taint it.

                I would add a dragon on the side of the car, because Dragons kick ass.

                  What about a Dragon literally kicking ass on the side of the car?

                        Burning flag isn't always anti-American. Many people use it just as a way of protest.

                          My goal for this weekend will be going MS Paint crazy on that car. Just wait...

                            I never did post that picture. Here it is:



                            The car in real life does not have these additions permanently installed yet. It will when I get it road legal and can finally do some tuft testing on the parts to see what has laminar flow and what has turbulent flow. The goal is a drag coefficient of 0.25 or less, although I will have no way of knowing the real number short of having access to a wind tunnel(I could estimate with coast down testing, which has a margin of error around 25%).

                            If I had a copy of photo shop, I could play with it some more and see what it would look like in real life once everything is put together.
