Saw this in the grocery store parking lot and had to grab a few quick pics

The owner said she had it painted by a Pakistani man in his 60's from the Khyber pass region.

Seems he does this for a living. The whole car was covered except the roof.

I thought it was pretty amazing. 













I was afraid to ask what it cost or how long it took.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

At least it was just a Kia.

Reminds me of the mini-buses and lories in Nepal. They all had crazy ornate paint jobs.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

I'd like to see this theme on a Harley.  Wouldn't a Buddhist theme of flowers and birds be a nice alternative to flames, skulls, and the iron cross. [clap]
