Default Would you pay

Would you pay for a modified car/ someone to modify your car. Design your body work etc. You give the details into someone and they will do what you want but give it a professional finish.

discuss.

If the work was too a high standard and I'd seen a lot of his/her previous work and was happy with it I see no problem (but would just buy something new if I had the money...as said above)

Yer but it would still be there work/designs.. Wouldn't be attached to it as much.

I had it when I got someone to build and repair my bike. Just didn't have the same effect as when I did it my self..

So if you designed the body work etc, we put your body work onto your car. It wouldn't be your creation.

Am only thinking about this due to some people not knowing how to go about modifying their pride and joys.

Putting it that way it would be my creation but you asked if they design your bodywork/modification.

Look it from this point of view, I know you all know about modifications but if someone else who wanted to modify their car and didn't know where to start. Or if they didn't want to get their hands dirty. Why not pay someone else to do it for you.

Yes.

I like having a modified car, and I like spending money on my car.. But I don't like doing the work on it.
