Pimp my lister
« on: June 17, 2007, 04:36:26 AM »
sorry to pollute this thread, just bored you know. So what could be potential mods for pimpin??

I am thinking

- all chrome fuel lines
- Chrome tipped muffler
- chromed spinner flywheels

Rice boy lister
- Loud fart cannon exhaust
- oversize flywheel as slant angle (like ricers do to their rear wheels of car)
- Performance intake and exhaust headers / manifild
- lots of stickers

Surely all rubber hoses should be red or blue silicone (glow in the dark if possible). Some sort of blue or purple lighting underneath would seem to be a necessity too.

 ;) ;)

Neon stick immediately outboard of each valve pushrod.  Small mirror ball above valve cover driven by a rubber belt from one of the spinning pushrods. Chromed snake flex borrowed from desk lamp with paper cllamp on business end holds baseball card into flywheel spokes.

Question.  Why?

-Want Lister 6/1

I chromed my push rods and air cleaner cover. Then painted it 2 tone, Green & Hammered Copper.
It looks sharp but this is as far as I go.

Well, a carbon fiber wing (er, I mean rain shield) over the ST head might really complete the ricer look. Also, a 4 inch chrome, mandrel bent pipe, bent down at a 45 deg angle with a K+N air filter. A nice 2 into 1 stainless header would be great upstream of the stainless, coffee can sized muffler.

how about old school

flat black, fuzzy dice and a lake pipe?

then we need some custom moon caps to cover the flyweels, and
the bogloni cut intake stack with no aircleaner

maybe some raised white letters on the flywheel?
 no,,, i got it,,  wide white walls!!

got to install some nerf bars for protection :)

and then go crazy with the lace work, flames, or boat metal flake!

i can see a special on TLC or Discovery in the works

 I agree with the old school guys. I would go big turbo, nitrous, ported, polished heads with monster valves, a nice bowl blend, an Isky cam Crower chrome molly pushrods or clear Lexan pushrods with bubble lamps in the center and some glass packs with cutouts and a chrome Hillborn injector. In the looks department Moon eyes equipped governor and valve covers. A nice tuck and rolled leather crank handle cover and bag. And the topper a Foose flame job.

You guys have lost your minds!!! I love it!!!

Maybe a nice pink bow on the lifting ring?
