West's 41-year-old ride is over twice his age, but no one is sure how much longer this Ford Fairlane is going to ride on. With nothing but tape holding it together in places, West may have to begin to look for a new whip, unless the guys at West Coast Customs get on the job, and quick.

When Xzibit rolls on into the garage with the Fairlane, the boys can't believe their eyes. This ride is definitely a classic, but not exactly practical for a 19-year-old guy about to start college. Seeing that West wants to go to college to become a mechanic, the WCC guys decide to leave the Fairlane just as it is for him to one day fix up himself with his future mechanic skills.

West still needs a ride though, and no one leaves West Coast Customs without a smile on their face, and an ultra-hot ride. X gets on the horn, and before we can say "pimped out ride," a brand new, 2005 Toyota 4Runner pulls into the garage. Now the WCC boys have something they can work with.

Everyone gets right on the job, giving this new ride a custom paint job, chrome rims, and more gadgets than are in an electronics store. When West comes to see his new ride, he nervously awaits while the boys unveil it. Shocked, West soon discovers his old ride with no work done to it. X momentarily enjoys West's confusion, before showing him his completely different, new ride.

West is overjoyed with his 4Runner and can't believe he has an entirely new car, complete with direct satellite, 2 15-inch monitors, and a monitor underneath the ride, because if West wants to be a mechanic, he'll be spending a lot of time down there. X even gives West a special gift to help him in school, a Sony Vaio laptop.

West is left utterly speechless, but can't wait to take his 4Runner for a spin. Xzibit and the guys at West Coast have definitely outdone themselves this time, pimpin' rides and changing lives.
