Help AMS and Ferrarokid and Win $200.00!! SHOW US YOUR DESIGN!

Many of your have been following the insane build up thread of Tommy's / Ferrarokid's 2003 AMS prepped Bonneville Salt flat EVO. Which can be found HERE
Well the motor is done and the power is almost dialed in. Its time to start thinking about how we are going to make this thing look.

As many of your know we love taking our shop and sponsored cars here and building a theme around them. The drag car looked like a top gun fighter. TA1 had a jolly roger fighter theme and even earlier then that a stealth bomber theme. We have the newly added AMS blues brothers mobile and I also don't think i needed to remind anyone about our A-team van tow vehicle...kinda speaks for itself.

Well Tommy has been so kind as to offer his car up for a theme as well. We have some ideas but Tommy and AMS wanted to put this in the hands of the members of EvolutionM.net. Tommy and AMS are also offering a $200 AMS gift certificate to the person that comes up with the Idea that both AMS and Tommy agree on. We LOVE creativity and we could not be happier to help bring this to you guys.

So lets here some idea's, we want images too. Don't just describe your idea...SHOW US! If your idea wins not only will you be $200 richer but you will have your mark on one of the Fastest EVO's ever built.

Just to keep the spirit going i want to show Tommy's car and some examples of our previous themed cars.

First is Tommy's car. It will have Bonneville wheels on it (solid Caps on the wheels) with skinny tires.The bumper pictured will be a stock bumper...possibly one piece front end. The body will remain just like an other EVO VIII....just fast with a big wing out the back







Now here are some samples of our other themes:

AMS Drag car / Top gun fighter Jet






AMS TA1 Time attack Jolly roger fighter





AMS TA1 Back when she was Flat black / Stealth fighter jet.






That should give you a good jump on the kind of themes we have done. We are not necessarily looking to stick with this theme, but we would not mind. We want to hear your ideas and see what you can come up with. So let us have it!!!

Thank you and good luck to everyone!

well ...logically (at least to me), if you follow those examples and tommy's car is literally one of the fastest evos in existance, then itd have to be space shuttle style. black and white. ill see what i can throw together later when im done with work.

That's a pretty good idea. The only problem is space shuttles don't really have any markings other than NASA stickers; pretty much just plain old black and white. Interested to see what you come up with.

A brick wall with graffti:

Something like that. Have an artist come in and do some graffti style artwork over a brick/building background.

I had time to play with photoshop a little and combine the pictures. I'm no photshop wizard so please take it for what it is. I think the real thing would have mom "pop" than the picture.

I agree with Lexcat and The Flash theme!

Maybe to follow with the theme of fighter planes you guys could do a P51 Mustang as this was the OG dogfight plane. Something like this(see below) and have the front bumper be checkered 4G63 logo on the side.
