ShaneXman's smart @ the SEMA Show 2008!

Well, it was an extremely long week, but I am finally back home (sanity intact). Anyways, it was another amazing year, and an exceptional show to wind down the year. The smart's were very well represented (mine being one of them), with a WIDE range of styles, colors, mods, etc.

My SEMA 2008 smart car project (Featured in the Falken Tires booth - # 43027) turned out to be a HUGE hit, with more attention than I had ever expected. However, I couldn't have done it without the amazing supporters who vested their trust in myself and Raging Bull Marketing (the builder). A special thanks goes out to Smart Madness, Kuhl FX, Doug Thorley Headers, Area 451, Mothers Polish, Rays Engineering, Falken Tires, Eibach Springs, House of Kolor, Katzkin, Custom Car Alarms, and last but not least...Raging Bull Marketing who made it all happen! THANK YOU ALL!!! :woohoo

I hope you all enjoy these pictures as much as I am enjoying my overhauled smart. Let me know what you think.


BTW, if anybody would like work done to their smart car, you can contact Raging Bull Marketing directly.

Loving your car! Very clean. One of my favorite Smarts on SCOA! Love the wheels and paint color! Are you wheels 17" or 18"? Do you know if they can make those wheels in a 3-lug pattern?

Thanks bud! The wheels are 17" x 7.5" all the way around. Unfortunately they will not be making these rims (Volk TE37's) in a 3 lug pattern anytime soon. I tried to convince them to do it, but they had no intentions of tooling up for it due to the lack of demand. If there were enough people interested in Volks, Rays, Gram Lights, etc....MAYBE they would consider it, so PLEASE shoot them an email and let them know!

Not at this time (unless there are some running around the net). Once things settle down from the show, and I can catch up at work () I will shoot some more and post them up. Cool?

Thanks for your quick reply. Your car is my new wallpaper on my laptop
Too bad about the 3-lug pattern. I've always loved Volk wheels. When my Smart comes in, I'll see if I can bug em enough to a 3-lug pattern

OK, I'm back. Can't stay away from these pics
Did you do any interior work? 2-tone leather?
Is that lambo orange you used?
