The Legacy of Pimp My Ride
MTV’s Pimp My Ride was a reality showed that aired for six seasons from 2004-2007, in which people with busted whips would be selected to get their cars upgraded by West Coast Customs. These were not regular upgrades. Along with top-notch accessories, WCC, and later Gilpan Auto Sports from season five on, would add outrageous additions to fit the owner’s style or hobby. Comedian Tiffany Haddish even appeared in an episode in 2005.
However, after the show ended, several participants came forward to complain about the work they received and call out the show for being fake. Multiple participants claimed the luxury items were removed from their cars after filming was done. Other people claimed the extravagant additions didn’t work, leaving them to foot the bill for repairs.
