Another Level Car Show 2010 @ Palatine, IL (lots of pics)

A friend of mine organized this parking garage style car show last year and it was a great success. Its built around raising money for the American Cancer Society (and cars, obviously).

This year's show had a great turnout. Here's some pics I took. Got some more that I haven't gotten thru yet. Will post those later.

Nice photos of some uglified cars.

I wonder if some of those owners were hoping that contrasting colors would compliment their cars.

^Looks like it. Who killed that E46 M3 with the lights? I want to kill them.

the show was a great turnout, judging took forever cause the work on the cars on the top level was just crazy.

That looks like a very nice turn out and the venue is sweet. That white GT-R is just wrong. That black Nova is just right. Thanks for sharing!

Gold Bimmer has horribly mismatched front and rear bumpers. Looks like MJ Fox put them on.

Thanks.

I thought the quality of the cars was higher than the last national show (RPM) hosted in Chicago. Plus, this was a charity event that charged very little to register your car. All in all, I had a good time.

That Nova is super clean. All the custom work on it is flawless!

That white R35 is owned by a local paint/body shop so it pretty much changes its appearance monthly. The other 2 wheels had an orange lip and looked much worse... trust me, I got the better side

Felt like all the expensive high end cars were all crappy and all the cheaper cars, i.e mr2's, looked really good.

Thanks for the pics, looked like a great day and a great show. I'm personally not a fan of VIP Style, but I can appreciate all of the work done on these rides.

But seriously, was this former 300C inspired by Hopper from "A Bug's Life"? That looks like one angry grasshopper dude...

From the pictures I'd say there was a fair balance of nice and trashy cars.
