Choppin' Competition #35 - Super Buick

[Flybrian]

Welcome to Choppin' Competition #35!

Hey, you! Open your eyes...wake up! Yeah, that was for the people still waiting for the LaCrosse Super to debut. Like the Second Coming, its coming...but...when? We may get to see the real thing as soon as Chicago or as late as New York. Kind of makes you wonder whether a rumored Lucerne Super will ever break cover, nevermind what it'll look like.

Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to modify the LaCrosse, Lucerne, or Enclave as a Super trim. Lowered, blacked-out, low-profile, its up to you. How much you modify the Buick of your choice is up to you, but remember that the Super trim going to aim for luxury with performance in a sophisticated package. Remember, you can also change pretty much anything you want on the car, its your choice. Design something worthy of the moniker, Iron Fist in a Velvet Glove!

Please use only the Buick LaCrosse, Lucerne, or Enclave for your entry.

Um, as a reminder...

Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to modify the LaCrosse, Lucerne, or Enclave as a Super trim.

um ...right. first one was a Lucerne, seond a Enclave (front) and this one a Lacrosse....was being the operative word here on all of them.;

[MRDETROITMETAL]

....on the other hand Fly you may be right, the Fireball is not really a Buick, its a BMW M coupe base so heres a 'nother Buick based car...the LaCrosse Super Electra;

[matt41]

The Buick Enclave Super! (Actually, I'm quite surprised nobody did this yet.)

mods:

turned chrome grille to color scheme on rest of car

red/white/blue gradient

flames

removal of door handles

lowered bottom parts (pulled down for more of a pimp style)

[Flybrian]

Alrighty, guys...a little over 24 hours left to turn in your Super Buicks. Remember, Enclave, LaCrosse, and Lucerne are all open for modification here!

[prototype66]

Here 's mine.

Hi everyone,

I'd like to join your little competitions here. This is my entry.

[NOS2006]

Great job, skip!

[Flybrian]

Nice! A few more hours left. Get those last minute Buicks in....how about some more LaCrosses and Enclaves?

[Zulehan]

Hi everyone,

I'd like to join your little competitions here. This is my entry.

It would be great if the lower front fascia was centered. As it is, it's skewed waay over to the passenger side. Nice idea though. Headlights are good.

Yeah, I realized after I had merged & done the blending; couldn't be arsed to fix it at that point.

Thanks for the compliment, though.
