Default Phoenix first ever chop-Stato#1 & #2

Saw everyones chop jobs and thought they looked cool so i *Cough Cough* Downloaded photshop *cough cough* and gave it a go, Be honest as i wont get offended.
Before:



After:


Tried to turn it into a fastback, lowered it, hothouse green with orange and yellow pearl, tinted windows, chopped roof, astra grill, side skirt from a dodge truck, and number plates i found on eBay, and nice big shiney wheels (thanks to whoevers lx ss torana they came off, hope you dont mind).

Worked on it all week, so be honest with wat u think as i wont be offended for my first go at a chop.


This is my 2nd chop. After looking at everyone elses chops, i couldnt think of anymore ideas, and wanted to do something different. This idea finally came to me, our own Aussie V8 chopper, offers Aussie V8 members road assistance anywhere in Oz



For the slow ones out there, it has a helicopter tai,l legs, and blades, and the rest is genuine aussie grunt.

P.S I figured out how to do white paint
