Actually, a really pimped out playa would put an LCD on his stock hubcaps, with an image of actual spinning rims.

Now that's gangsta!

ITsPennywise

Okay a real pimp would have the LCD SPINNING. Hows that for pimp batch?

Because when you're cruising down the streets in southern California, you need to remind the vagabonds of how big an a-hole you are.

It's for people who drive around their total net-worth.

I just put a LCD screen in my mailbox, cause you know, like when I get the mail, I like to sit down and catch some episodes of the People's Court.

FAIL.

ITsPennywise

I kept waiting for that girl to say "That's right, daddy!" and for the guy to refer to himself as A Pimp Named Slickback.

therunningboard7

Whats up with his face at minus 23 seconds?

exigent

i think it seems like a cool device. Now when i mow down the homeless, they'll be able to catch a bit of Oprah before they die. Hopefully they will see a bit on ways to improve the last few seconds of their worthless lives.

drewheyman

It'd be covered with mud all the time on my vehicle.

In 20 years when all of you have TVs in your bumpers, we'll look back and laugh that we ever thought it sounded ridiculous in the first place.

(I'll take 5)

rudeadly

It's official: There aren't just a lot of stupid gadgets at CES, there's a bumper crop....

Mandatory_Field

perhaps you could have a scrolling message, like how big of a douchebag you are or how small your penis is... Hell just flash a picture of how small it is.

mrimp

@Protocol X: LOL. AKA thousand dollar millionaires -where housing is so cheap they get a n expensive car err pickup to haul whatever it is people seem to constantly need to haul around.

SeattleTed

Reminds me of Ralph Spoilsport.

That could be cool for racing cars like Nascar, so the team can rotate the sponsors and make mo money!

Palestina

not the most useless place for a tv,
i saw a pimp my ride where they stuck a 36 inch plasma on the BOTTOM of a fucking car.
you know, the BOTTOM, where you will never, ever fucking see it.

superjap

The sad thing is, some asshole is going to buy this. Hopefully none of the readers here but some moron who likes to drop the total value of his/her car into upgrades for said car, instead of buying a fast/pimp car to begin with. Then the sell it for half of what it's worth 3 years later and dump more of their wasted income into hooking up a new car.

thechansen

Okay, call me an asshole, but.....If I was alone in a dense parking lot/garage with nobody around, yes, I would kick in the screen because A.) they are retarded, who watches TV on a tiny screen anyways, B.) their sense of taste/aesthetics must make them a piece of trash, C.) the money wasted on this could have been spent making the car faster, safer, more reliable or if you really want to get deep AIDS research or charity. In any event said customer should have probably bought a penis pump because you've gotta be pretty small to want this "gadget". if you stuck random shit in useless places it's not a gadget, wtf logic is that. Like an extra toilet roll holder mounted in your attic, you can't use it while crapping, whats the point? You can't watch TV while driving, then again the jackass who buys this probably does.

CrashingOut

This would be great for some sort of commercial application. Of what I do not know.

tehethan

what the hell are you guys talking about? i always sit down on the driveway behind my car watching tv on the bumper. i think you are all a bunch of nerds who dont understand the pure viewing pleasure of watching tv back there...the exhaust, the super comfortable driveway, the great out doors...get a life guys, watch tv on your car bumpers.

undeadmachine

This is so when you run over someone, you'll have direct visual access to the Health Channel as you try and save their lives... Makes perfect sense!

zarchitect

well at least he wont get distracted on the road for watching Finding Nemo

dryered

Oh I got it.. it's a bumper protector.

Playstation

I thought the femesapien justify your gadget post was dumb, but gotta admit that this one was pretty sweet.

I also agree that although I'd never consider putting an LCD on the outside of my car, his explanation at least makes sense for people concerned enough about their image to spend however-many-thousand it would cost to cut a hole in your bumper and put an LCD in there.

Me, I think I'd probably put Mama's Family on my bumper LCD.

Keebler

@CrashingOut: Who' sthe bigger jackass, the guy who bought it or the guy who kicked it in just because he did?

strider_mt2k

Oh I got it, it's the most effective blinker on the market! Flash images of Dr. Phil and people will move over real quick! RUN AWAY! RUN AWAY!

zarchitect

Maybe if they embed an instructional video on how to change the wheel when you have a flat tire.

But then again it should come bundled with an extra large mud flap.

XpacTa

I really really wanted to post a comment about how this is definitely one of the signs of the deterioration of civilization, but I think it's all been said.

So I will not post.

ideaman2020

What will we do when every surface of every car -- both inside and outside -- is covered with LCD TVs? How can one show how pimp one is when there's no more space to place televisions?

I, for one, will be putting LCD TV billboards propped up above my whip so da bitches know I ain't no second rate pimp.

mrface

pimp my ride on mtv did that so long ago
