Are we comparing Art's xb to PGmotoring's GS? I'm kind of lost. What's Vanning styled?

No no. The GS is not related, just to enjoy. Vanning is this...

NO

not exactly my cup of tea, but looks well executed

I think it looks sick and that for the time that he had to finish it.  It came out great.  Alot of people arnt going to like it but hey not everyone likes everyones styles and this is something that was created out of the box.  There is more to come on the car so dont be suprised to see it different every time it comes out to the shows.  And im not just saying that it looks good because it has Autofashion on it i think it looks good because someone actually stepped up and did something different.

Oh I see. I was wondering why is was on there. But yeah i love the way Art's XB came out. I give him so much for his creativity. People gon hate but along with it alot of people are gon love it. I can't wait til Art is officially finished. You thought you saw the finished product?... The best is yet to come.

One of the most creative XBs IMO! It was a Great and bold attempt at doing the BOSO style! He got a great reaction when he rolled up to the show!
I don't think ART is ever gonna be finished, it's just gonna keep changin like a transform or somethin....

I agree with Freddy totally!  Most people I think will hate it.  To the people that are somewhat educated about Boso will take a more appreciative standpoint.  I own an xB as well and I though mine was different.  Arthur just went around everyone and stepped way outside the box and built an extremely different car and xB.  This could be the start of a new fad in the US or it could fade away.  Regardless Arthur's xB is sick!!

I like it.

I think that is the best executed boso style xB/bB in state.

Nothing against vanning style in general, but the xB doesn't look wild enough, it just looks like the fins are stuck on. The sides of the vehicle are flat like stock.

It doesn't have the outrageousness and flow of the true crazy vans. It's like the builder was afraid to go wild.

He's not done yet. I think it looks pretty damn good for the time it was put together. One of the dopest stateside and the only one i can think of stateside. I talked to Art at the show and he said he's not even close to being done yet. He still has like over 10 wings he has to put on. Trust me Art is not afraid to think outside of the box. So just sit back cause you aint seen nothing yet. 
 
If you read this Art just remember, Haters gon hate. Keep doin what u do bro.
 
Off topic but what's your platform again Firelizard?

I'm pretty stoked to hear there's more coming. It would be really freaking awesome to see a balls-out insane vanning style xB on this continent. 
 
Are there build-up photos, or are those top secret?

I respect doing something different and being original and all that stuff. I wouldn't be driving the car I'm driving if I wanted to fit in. But this Vanning style falls right in line with these IMO...

I love that xB. It freakin' sickness. I want to see the interior pics. Its unique and someone actually had the balls to try something different. Much props to Art Fong.

personally, I like it a lot

It's krazy and different, I love it!

I like it.  Props for all the work that went into it.

i was amazed to see the clear windows on that xb.  i dont even want to know how much that mod was.  i do autoglass as well and do a lot of custom jobs, well did. isnt popular anymore.  but we would change out excursions and burbans to all clear glass, then put custom tint graphics in them and the bill would be in the thousands, and i mean over 5.

I saw a "in progress" picture in VipCar, it's great to see someone do something like that over here. Props to him for going in a different direction.

There actually JDM clear windows from the bB.  Looking at around a grand for the full set.

GO BOSO!

I like it.I've  always liked the boso/yankee/vanning style.I don't love it,but I'm always amazed by the creativity and the craziness of this style.it makes me say WTF!

It's a different concept for alot of people who are not familiar with the Boso style tuning. I ain't feelin' it, but you gotta to give to Arthur for doing something nobody had done to the xB. I am sure he had heads turning at the show.
