You seem to forget Nigerians are very good at what they do. You simply 4gotten so soon the advent of switching a different car engine make for another(Datsun engine for Mazda back in the days).
You guys need to pay a long visit to Lawanson(oshodi area) and ile-zik(ikeja airport area) and see transformation on car.-i have! e.g zebra interior upholstery, u don't even have to replace yur front lights when they look worn-out or dull. simply consult them. they might lack technological ideas, but when comes to knowing attractive and expensive things that can enrich pockets, omo-unaS(igboS) are very good at it.

There were companies in Nigeria about 20 years ago (probably before that) pimping rides. Used to be mates with one of the owners. I don't know if they still exist though.

Pimp my ride? What's that all about? itz an MTV show hosted by XZIBIT where dead cars are brought back to life, cars are worked on so that they looked brand new, maybe even better than a new one  |

This can definitely work in Nigeria, but not until the producer can make a profit from TV shows. Because the show has to make money to Pimp the rides. I don't know how much the nigerian networks are willing to pay for such a show sometimes forgetting the advertising potensial is huge. On the other hand it can be done on a milder scale. just bringing the car back to brand new and skip the useless expensive TV screens and sound systems.

Didn't u study english? "has of going to heaven", it's future. The devil has no chance of goin to heaven although he was there, Anyway that still does not mean pimp my ride is goin to occur in Nigeria. It can't and it won't. I was just using that expression to describe the impossibility and I wonder if Oracle has anything better to say to that  |

Pimp my ride is a show, thats what the topic is about. The show and not your ability to pimp your own ride.

I guess u know the cost to pimp a car? Now lets take a look at MTV's pimping and see if anyone has attempted it in Nigeria, even the so called guys wit pimped out cars can't compare to the standard of pimp my ride.
