definately different...wouldnt dare hack up a brand new car though

[JrTekSilverP5]

not brand new... 1yr 3months old... (birthday)

Why dont you buy a wrecked P5 and do that to it? Its a shame to chop up a hatchback when you could have bought a truck to begin with. If you really do this I hope it turns out good since you will be putting all tht work into it and cant go back.

how do you guys figure it's different if it's already been done and publicized??

anyway, good luck with your project!! just make sure the car/truck is safe to drive afterwards.. unless you are making it just for show..

i wanna do it and put the autoexe grill and the mint blue type 2 kit on it...

[Sir Nuke]

there is currently a thread in the PHOTO forum that links to the Ballistic site with lots of pictures....

[duMb KeoLa]

DAMN, that is sick!!!!! i thought it would look ugly but that is definetly sick......big props to those guys

[Dexter]

nah dude funk that, the truck is ugly as hell. props for creativity and craftsmanship, but just not my cup of tea.

[JrTekSilverP5]

i think that shit will would look hot and im happy no1 else wants to do it... the only 2 out there!

[Badvmc]

(omg) I like it a lot!!!!

[JrTekSilverP5]

i talked to john (the owner) from ballistic and he said they put $80G's into that car!!! and it will be goin up for sale in dec. of this year for around $50G's...

he also gave me the number to mike at pro design who did it and he said it would cost about $10-15G's...

im so happy i know a couple of people in miami who know how to do work like that... i just need pics of it from as many different angles as possible... so if you have any different pics from the ones posted... please send um to me at jrtek2k1@hotmail.com ... thanx...

[jeovanni]

I know it looks cool in the end, but I just can watch a silver P5 cut like that! :'( (nervous)

[JrTekSilverP5]

yeah i know exactly what u mean... im not gonna be there when they do it... lol

[prote5]

:wtf: I think it looks retarded.... it looks gay as hell.... why would you do such a thing to our beautiful cars???? You'd be wasting money to make it look stupid.... doesn't compute..... buy an el camino

[pshaw34]

hmmm, its not my thing, but i think its cool that you like it. I just think that there is a lot better things to do with 10-15 gs. Buy a new car even with trade in value. But good luck man. (thumb)

[DrPhill]

you could sell your car and take the $$ you made off it + the $10- $15k and buy a brand new sport 20 and have it imported.(smack!!)

[JrTekSilverP5]

SMACK your damn self... (getsome)

i got a body shop in here in MIAMI that said he would do the body work and paint it for free... he has all the pics i provided and hes done something like this before so he said it would be a peice of cake... so money comin outta pocket... the only thing i need to get is the MINTBLUE KIT and THE AUTOEXE GRILL... im also gonna get the rear tower strut bar...

[alexlitov]

Hmm... there was a thead about it a while back. Try searching maybe you'll find it.
