Car Feature: Crystallized Hybrid














This Lexus CT 200h was a huge hit at Motion Auto Show (especially with the ladies!) so I thought it deserved a post of its own.

Meet Goose! The owner Matt named this car after the flying creature because of its white paint job. There's no crazy paintjob on this ride (just the stock white), but this whip is set apart by the real Swarovski crystal accents! Matt meticulously decked out his ride using double stick tape. Surprisingly, none of them have fallen off, even though drives this car and has washed it several times!

I'm not a fan of the VIP style or hybrid cars, but this one really takes the cake. Props to Matt on outshining them all (:

Wow, that's a lot of Swarovski! That's an expensive ride. I'm amazed that those crystals have stayed using only double-stick tape; I have to assume that it's not Scotch brand tape but some stronger, more industrial quality product, lol. I'm not a fan of the white stock paint job... this is a perfect opportunity to create a Barbie car with a hot pink paint job!

Just imagine, dudes with a bedazzler, sticking crystals on one by one... hehe

I'm not a car fan, but this has influenced me to bling my car's number plate! (when I do get one) Hope that is legal though :P
