Its cool, yet at the same time kinda sad, for a few reason. He actualyl spent the money to do it, and at the same time, That Z has lost its appeal. And were is the G1 version of him, it should be on the dash dammit.

Well, to be fair, that guy is a FRIEND of the guy who's site that is, and that guy is that dude in Ohio who legally changed his name to Optimus Prime. So he HAS to change his car to look exactly like Prowl just to keep up with the Joneses.

Eh, to be fair, um, what? Besides, it relaly doesn't come off liek Prowl alot, to even do it he woudl ahve to shave off the gas door alone and get a better light set. And he is missing a few emblems on the car, and the images I jsut looked at, I don't even see Police written on the side of the car in which he put Prowl instead.

Maybe so, but it's a damn fine try. If I saw it, I would think Prowl. In the writing above the picture, he explains how it's illegal to have Police on the side of your car, so he put Prowl instead

Yes, but I said when looking at a Prowl image, there was no writing even saying Police.

Sorry to get involved, but it looks like it says police on the pic here:

The web site clearly says....

In accordance with Ohio State law, no vehicle is permitted to have the wording 'POLICE' on it, so Chris just used Prowl's name.

In wich I think is very reasonable due to his situation.
If it were me I would have just mmiissppeelleedd "POLICE" but "PROWL" is also a good idea

This guy really did a number on his car give credit where it's due.

Unfortunatly my car does not look like any Transformer otherwise I would do the same thing.

It's pretty spot-on for a toy conevrsion to a full size car would look, cept for the siren lights being oversized.

And let's face it, everybody has seen the 'real' Wheeljack and various others - s'nice to see how pig ugly Prowl would have been. Yeuch, Datsuns.

Nice!

Very nice! Transformers are cool. Prowl is one of the coolest. Therefore, the car is really cool, and the guy is a cool Transformers fan!
