Crazy Mod.. Can it be done
« on: August 14, 2009, 01:40:17 AM »
I guess i might as well tell you i have been watching too many movies again, this time "herbie" .
the thing is i liked how herbie could open an close the frount hood of the engine bay..
now there's alot of small cars that anoy me on the road,, an to be able to get up there arse an make the engine bay open an close with read neons inside, would make out one great trick..

what does everyone else think..?

can it be done?
At least the beddie beats the gutter when your drunk!

Any thing is possible.

Good idea? No, could be vert dangerous, not only blocking your vison but the bonnet could fly open and smash your screen.

How about just using really big air horns :D

I think herbie was done with a bit of string with someone above
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

Is there something in the water you drink  :D

Seriously though, what happens if you sacre the bejezzus out of the car driver and they slam on thier brakes? :o

Have a look in Joels gallety at the pulse generator (you cant realy call them Horns) for a good idea about signaling to those pesky drivers  ;D

Or better still - chill out and stop watching reruns ::)

<< turning left
turning Right >>
<< Breaking >>
<< Reversing >>
Safe to Overtake
Get off My Arse
< Cops Ahead >
Need Repairing

or would that put off the driver behind me now.
(Since i only have 3speed an go 80kms nicely with fuel.)
Entertainment for people behind me, as im getting too many bumper stickers. hehe
