The Boosted Barbie Car - No more, now SOLD

Is that gloss black or matt black? Looks a little dull, sifnt put gloss black on it.

Speaing of that, have you seem that Trim Dream stuff? The guy that makes it is over on fordmods.
Its a compound you put on and it turns all your trims shiny as just from rubbing it on.

Bit too late now as you have painted yours already! But yeah heh.

Shut up you

Man that guy at sandown was creepy!! Like seriously, who spends over 20 mins lookin over one car and asks questions and hangs round like that!? Glad to see the end of him.

Thanks Shane, hopefully the pink walls will be coming soon. Gotta get a few things looked at first (heater #1 atm) not too far off though, yay

Probly will do it next time im bored. Only thing is i never have my bonnet up (i would have to win a trophy for worlds dirtiest engine bay!)and the struts are pretty stuffed. And the fact that Pete still hasnt bought me a turbo set up to show off

by **RaLLy_KaTTy** » June 14th, 2008, 1:27 pm

I have to admit i like the boot install

Does it look anything like like this?

by **Commando** » June 14th, 2008, 1:35 pm

Go for a full pink spray at P4TJETKUSTOMS<tm> methinks.

And finish off those doortrims! And "shave" the inserts a little, it's like 70s bush

by **Eb Barbie** » June 16th, 2008, 8:43 am

BINGO Dezza!!

As much as i would love a pink car, if i was to do anything to the paint on the Eb i got atm, it would be adding pink pearl over the blue with glitter

I think you need some subs in that boot install that really pump, so that everytime you play something with a lot of bass barbies hair gets f@#$ed around

by **Eb Barbie** » June 16th, 2008, 3:32 pm

Lol, i got a sub, its just hidden

by **RaLLy_KaTTy** » June 16th, 2008, 6:03 pm

Thats kool as!... Too bad i have gas tank! Braidy and I have to somehow... Work around the gas tank! Fuckin aweosme Beth!

Hence why I am having seconds thoughts on converting mine. I got the money just not keen on wrecking my boot now

Should give it a go on your own with out Braidens expertice help now and then

by **John_LS1** » June 16th, 2008, 8:50 pm

go gas you wont look back when filling it up

you get the rebate still but you better be quick because i think it runs out soon.

by **shane-ed** » June 16th, 2008, 10:48 pm

gas is still good i have gas, there is only 2 bad things is loss in boot space and power loss, but if u think of the money u will save its about 50-60$ a tank, im sure u could still make a wicked boot layout with a gas tank.

Only reason why I ganna get Braidy to help is coz i know nothing about subs and amps... and what wood to use to make the box for my customized boot install!So just get the set up ready then i can decorate

by **Stengord** » June 18th, 2008, 10:40 pm

Go gas, it will pay for itself,
and its only a boot, just get some plywood and tack some pink shit onto it

never know its there

by **RaLLy_KaTTy** » June 19th, 2008, 8:41 am

Yes thats what i ganna do... cover it up... but then with sound system i wont have much of a boot left... I think Beth wants to have boot space! dont push her to get gas! its not all that good! It blows my air intake LOL i will have to fix it somehow!

I like the idea of hiding the subs like beth! but i cant! Oh well!

by **wolf** » June 19th, 2008, 8:53 am

remove ya fuel tank and run gas only.

by **Eb Barbie** » June 19th, 2008, 9:03 am

Well the car will be going on gas. Paid 94 bucks for petty last night which last time i filled up it cost just under 80. Huge jump in price!! I am calling up tonight to book it in. I got the money, may aswell.
Spewing about the boot but i guess i will have something else to do now, new boot install!! Lol

by **EFFalcon** » June 19th, 2008, 9:08 am

i'd pull all ur boot panels out before you give them the car.
sucks if it all got filthy!

by **Eb Barbie** » June 19th, 2008, 9:17 am

Good thinking 99!!!

by **Schmee** » June 19th, 2008, 11:35 am

judging by where your paneling is in the boot it shouldnt be to hard to make it fit with a gas tank in there just a few mods and the same parts to make it all work again

good luck with it and definetly remove the install before sending it in for gas save the heartache of cleaning it

and congrats on gas should make life a bit cheaper

We got recommended a joint by Pat (D1SCNT) so were probly heading there, both the barbie car and phatel.

Wont take much to move things around anyway. Not meant to have the tank covered by anything though are ya?

by **Eb Barbie** » June 20th, 2008, 8:40 am

Car is booked in, earliest i could get was 4th August!! Should come around pretty quick though.

Good question Pete, how can i go about covering the gas tank so you cant see it?? Should be able to come up with something once its in.

by **Schmee** » June 20th, 2008, 8:52 am

as long as you put a flap in so that you can access the valve on the tank you will be fine

just for the safety side of things if your involved in an accident first thing the fireies do is go for the battery then turn off the gas tank

by **Eb Barbie** » June 23rd, 2008, 8:28 am

Well thanks to Paul/cve Performance my heater is back

One thing down, who knows what will go next. Seems to be one thing after another with cars :roll:

You dont realise how low your car is until you park it next to a stocker!!
