That's a Wrap
Shareef Khan's '05 Chevy Silverado RST
San leandro, California
We Say: We know hardcore customizers look down on people for adding vinyl graphics to a vehicle as opposed to paint. However, Shareef has done more than just add a set of vinyl flames to his truck. His graphic design includes tons of details that would take months for any painter to replicate. Shareef states he can give his truck a whole new look with a new vinyl wrap within a week. Besides this, the truck can dish out 551 hp and 667 lb-ft from the rear wheels. That's enough power to leave most sports cars in the dust. Vinyl stickers or not, this truck really has it going on.
