keepin it ghetto fabalous. i recant my statment on the colors. my monitor at work is meant for reading word docs not pics. now she looks right. well something like that with a lot of contrast would look pretty tight as well.

Dave,
You've done it again! This has got to be one of your best! My fav so far.

Excellent Job!

Thanks guys. So, I guess it's a hit?

Really though, I was really excited about this one, that's why I had to tease you guys this morning.

Hog, I went with these colors, because mostly I had them on hand, secondly because they reminded me of water, and the surf theme.

I wish it came out more drastic, but I laid the Aqua over the Blue, and it came out darker than expected, but I'm cool with it, because it fits in with my subtle theme I've been into lately.

...and Superfly, that sounds like a hella cool Saturday night, I'm coming over to hang with you.

Here's a couple more shots with the stock Beetle body for comparison.

Golly man, that stock one looks like a fuckin bucket...

EDIT: I just noticed one bad thing about that job there Dave.. It's actually too nice to drive, or race.. If somebody hit that in a race, and dinged it, shiiiiit.

Yep its peeps like you and the other "Master Modifiers" here that make tomy and other companies think:

"why make it look nice? no matter what we do these little fu<kers and bitpimps will make it look better"

Man It looks that much better beside the original body.

Awww what would we do with out these crafty Pimps to keep the hobby progressive.

You know dave I was gonna say something witty but in the end I thought that a simple praise of "well done you talented bastard!" fits the bill...

ph2t.

No car is too nice to drive. Hell, the nicer it is, the more I can't wait to drive it. I just give 'em a few days for the paint to cure, then it's no mercy.

This ones about ready to be romped, maybe I should make a vid later.

Ph2t, I know what you mean, I have trouble coming up with the clever compliments. Pimps around here are the kings of cool compliments.

Thanks for the cool compliments guys.
