I think we should get ThomCat's scooter 'Pimped out' - what should we do to it
First, no vehicle can be properly pimpled with out spinner rims on the tires.

Perhaps we can get some tribal graphic artwork on the body of the scooter.

What recommendations do you have to pimp out ThomCat's scooter?

22. I have some pink pleather dice I got for Christmas.
They are very bee-yu-ti-ful! Nothing says "class act" like pleather!

9. I was thiking the Right Said Fred song, "I'm Too Sexy"
would be a much better choice. Perhaps, ThomCat should start a poll to pick a song. :P

14. Definitely. Anything other than the standard horn
that comes with these things...the standard horn just sucks. Compare it to looking at someone built like The Rock but sounding like Minnie Mouse with laryngitis.

7. The handle bars definitely need some
Edited on Thu Jan-17-08 11:33 AM by Jamastiene
furry covers and pink streamers off the handlebars as well. Some furry dice on the keyring are a must as well. No pimped out ride would be complete without that. I suggest a leopard spotted pattern. Also a nice lavender neon light footprint to go under it. I can help with the electronics. It might take one extra battery, but that should be a small task really, nothing major. :P

25. Two options
Old school: ghost flames or, better yet, flat-black paint with hot-rod pinstriping and a tuck and roll seatcover. Whitewall tires optional.

New school: obnoxiously bright paintjob, giant chrome rims with low profile tires, and a faux "grapefruit shooter" (aka "fart can") tailpipe blasting a recording of a lawnmower engine.

34. I think Aerodynamics are important
if you ask me.

But what about the massive chrome exhaust?

35. Two words: ground effects
Sure, it'd mean giving up ground clearance for aerodynamics, but it might help the scooter get up to a blistering six-and-a-half miles per hour instead of just six. ;)

36. Tribal and/or flame pattern along the bottom edge.
Is there any good place to put fuzzy dice? :P

And since he's a gamer, we could use fuzzy D20s.
