Two weeks ago WE put out a call to anyone with a “pimped ride.” The feedback was fantastic, as dozens of DeKalb residents and NIU students responded with stories, photos and information about their enhanced automobiles.

But the search is not over yet.

WE plans to feature a series of students or local residents who have spent countless hours and seemingly too much money altering their automobiles.

WE is also looking for car enthusiasts with experience working on enhanced cars.

The section plans to run both a photo spread of suped up cars as well as a brief article detailing the trend.

Your help will offer insight to the realm of deluxe automobiles and possibly garner city-wide recognition for your ride.

After all, isn’t getting noticed the point of adding those buzzers, neon lights and whizzy things to your cars? That’s what you want, right? Well, put your e-mail where your mouth is and step up to the challenge of helping us out.
