| I found my theme for my box.
The otherday, I was thinking of how to theme my toaster on wheels. I was originally going to use "DJ" from Pixar's Cars, but I think I'd get board with that sooner than later.
I also thought that it would be cool to theme my car off of Soundwave from the transformers' animated series, but I hated the animated style of the show; therefore, I hate the Soundwave toy, and I don't want to use a Hotwheels' transforming xB as that is cheating IMHO.
Now, my personal style I refer to as GEEKSTA! I wear alot of Marval, Transformers, GI Joe, and Super Mario tee's with lose fitting jeans, shorts or cargos. I want my xB to reflect my personality and style, even some of my friends are Box haters, but believe that the car itself fits me and my since of style.
So, I decided yesterday that Mario beats out everything while I was folding my clothes, my Mario/Nintendo shirts out number my other Geek shirts 4 to one. So today, I am going to buy a mushroom power up candy tin, some LEDs and a bolt. With those items I am going to build a new shift knob along with some spray foam sealer (it will work!!) |

Sounds interesting. I like cars with themes more than anything else. You may also look into the solid plastic mushroom. I have seen them before at places like FYE and stuff in multiple different styles. If you had a TV system to your car may I suggest going retro all the way and put in a NES... just an idea. | |

I wanna see pictures of that car for sure... I am currently brainstorming Mario door interior re-do's, but can't find a method to DYI.
