Chip Foose is my heroe....he is not only an amazing designer, but also an artist. He is also really nice...I met him.

All I can say is if he was going to put all the stuff in and on my car for free I would let him do it. Nothing like a free supercharger, sound system, wheels, interior and so forth. You could always sell it later and make a crap load on it as a Foose car.

Seems like a nice guy and very talented artist. Most of his stuff doesent do it for me though. Once in a while I will like something he does on a car. But at least 95% of what he does I dont like.

From watching his show a few times he appears to be a genuinely nice guy, a great and caring person. But my tastes do not run down the same path as his, I really don't like the work he turns out. The wheel/ tire combos always look ricey and the paint jobs tacky. But I'm more of an old-school guy (think Arlen Ness), the younger kids don't share my tastes. It seems like the younger crowd identifies a lot more with Foose. And there's nothing wrong with that

There are different types of car guys (and gals) in this world. Chip is definitely a "hot rodder". I believe his designs are hot rod based and not rice based. I don't think his designs are ugly or tasteless; in fact I like a lot of his designs. Would I personally design a car the way he would or even buy one set up that way? No. I'm not a hot rodder. I consider myself an automotive enthusiast. I can find even the most "riced out" car beautiful in a way. Chip is truly an artist. I say keep on rockin' Chip. You're doing a great job!
