Flame Painting an Impala

[fouadhafeez]

Who cares about streotypes when you own a fire breathing Impala? Haters gonna hate in any case

LOL. As far as the haters are concerned, Fahad...if I paid much attention to them, this would be a pedestrian, drab, silver-coloured Impala with a 0-60 time of 2 minutes rather than 6 seconds.

To ensure maximum quality, and given the kind of classy music you prefer, I'd suggest a good headunit aswell. An amplifier would boost the power for speakers and sub only but it will lack quality big time. A good headunit would be helpful in ensuring quality music. That's how you're going to enjoy your Enter Sandman or Gotten ( Slash) while cruising to a sunset

Thanks for the suggestion. Any more advice as to where / how / for how much such a head unit would be available from? In fact...why don't you and Tilsim advise a complete system, altogether?

Pinstriping in Progress

flames look great but flames still lacks the shine that gives the main look!!!!

The shine and gloss is going to be imparted by the hardener / lacquer. However, this is only the very LAST step of the entire project...so before that, we are going to have to make sure that the zameen to be covered is absolutely perfect. Including pinstriping, cleaning, smoothing, and making sure the colours are blended perfectly.

Awesome Sir , waiting for pics after hardener (A) and i know the look will be killing .

Last step ................ No end in such pangas very best of luck Fouad bhai.

Haha I'll have to agree upon that

Yeah we can do the system for you aswell when the car is with us. I'm sure you wont be disappointed by the Audio related knowledge of Tilsim and a few cents of mine

What an awesome thread. Absolutely beautiful ride, and lovely paint job. First of its kind in the twin cities I guess.

Thanks for sharing.

...first of its kind in the twin cities I guess...

Thanks for the kind words. And if there ARE other flame jobbed cars in Rawalpindi / Islamabad...I certainly haven't seen any.

aala.. looking at the collections you have, i didn't think your art side would be this strong.. always thought these were kinda feminish tasks.. YES I AM SEXIST.. but you've pulled an amazing job here.. (y)

Kind words, Usman. Thanks.

Now start looking for an audio system for me, brother!

[tilsim]

Fouad bhai, i read your requirements up here.. it can be done that way as well.. but like Fahad said already, i'd recommend putting in a head unit.. what can be done, is that it can be concealed nicely.. tucked away somewhere out of sight.. and only an Ipod would be visible.. issue with Ipod is that operating it while driving can be dangerous.. you consider that.. and i'd INSIST now that its a proper show car.. it deserves an install that people would stop to look at.. further details, i'd rather discuss over phone.. since ideas everyone has after watching "P1mp my ride".. but who knows what may click you.. you may wanna keep that secret till its ready for display

[doc.tarzan]

one word "AWESOME"

Mashallah your car is an absolute cracker and the flames are looking flemkhin' awesome
& ever thought of installing hydraulic system in your car ? so it could hop also :rolleyes:

One last addition, is going to be a little artwork on the hood of the vehicle. Decency (and PakWheels rules) prevent me from posting a picture of it here...but it will be very tasteful, very beautiful, and very "in keeping" with the "flavour" of the car. Alongside this little mural is going to be a bit of writing..."The Devil Inside"...which, was not ONLY the title to a great song by the original INXS...but is a fitting tribute to the fire-breathing 1UZ that lives inside this beast!

For now, though...some pictures that tell the tale of today...

Don't save yourself by diverting our attention to the 1UZ sitting under the hood. You yourself are no less and the writing is perfect

Mashallah. Very nicely done.
