    Yeah they can pop rivet panels to cover rust areas. Like they did on the VW bus show. Doesn't any of them know how to weld.

    That shop can really do nice cars (i.e. the hotwheels truck they did to go along with the full size deora Chip Foose built for SEMA), but the show really is bad publicity for them I think.

    they can do nice cars. if u go to there website they made a chrysler 300c into a convertible. ... impressive. the cars they do on the show are pretty weak, all meant for show (which none of those ppl will never enter) but i wouldn't mind putting my car into pimp my ride. as soon as the show is done. i'll part it out. and if they put a big 40" tv in my car. that will go right into my room.

    I don't know how you apply, try mtv.com maybe? If you do get on it be prepared to take a bunch of useless shit off. I'd say go for it though thats a lot of aftermarket $$$ parts.

    In order to get on that show, I think I remember hearing that they will NOT consider your car unless you live within their west coast customs shop....but correct me if im wrong...

    That whole show is such a load of crap. I mean, WCC is capable of SO MUCH MORE...why the hell are they doing that ricer garbage for the sake of publicity??? Honestly, who NEEDS a fireplace in the back of their car???

    It seems to me that for every decent part that they put on a car, they also put a ricer item on too....are they sponsored by APC??? Cause MANNNNNN, they're sucking hardcore!!!! It's like the Caddy they did. It looks relativly good, and I was watching it thinking, "OMG, they finally did a NICE car kinda." And then Xzibit pulls a drum set out of the trunk....a DRUMSET!!! WHO THE FLIP NEEDS A DRUM SET IN THEIR TRUNK?!?!?!?!?!?!

    I think they put too much shit in the cars that ppl don't need but at least I liked what they did with the Civic except the paint, racing lines and the purple interior. The Suburban had a bad ass interior set up except the sink... (chick was kinda cute, plus she dirtbikes &lt;&lt;&lt;turn on&gt;&gt;&gt; :D).... but the Blazer was way over the top even though that chopper style bike was kinda koo and well the 88 Legend looked ugly as hell. Shit if I had that kind of money and the tools to make good shit happen I'd be doin more than the ghetto ass ideas they comin up wit..... and talkin about ghetto ideas do u guys remember that Firebird they did??? That thing was fuckin ugly, they put all this bunch of stupid things to it.... it was frustratin :(

    I think if you guys paid attention to his posting in the Defects/Maintenence area you would understand why he wants his car in the show..

    Car in poor shape (and more things keep breaking) + need for car + lack of funds = Bad situation nobody wants in.

    Of course I wouldn't want MY car in the show but I was in a similar situation and there was a contest to turn my crappy car around then I would definately be up for entering it and wouldn't care about the shitty chrome wheels. Yes I agree the show is dumb but what If you were like one of those kids?

    I would go for it if I were you but I think you HAVE to be in Southern California.

    Because MTV/Viacom is paying them to.

    WCC does not need publicity when it comes to the majority of people who veiw that show. Most of the audience couldn't afford the work I would assume.

    I doubt you would qualify since you JUST bought the car two months ago.

    I lost all respect for that show when they panned across their cars and there was an enzo on 20 in black wire wheels.
    I was in shock..

    LOL &quot;THAT IS SICK!&quot; Poor Scion xB. That dude that had the two escorts put together got an EXTREMELY RICED OUT Pokemon lookin s**t car. I dunno how they expect rice to make their cars better, it's true it is giving them a bad name, apparently their next project is an already riced 240sx from another local. I dun' have cable but I intend to watch it and laugh my ass off. Poor 240sx, could have been an awesome drift car.
