Young Southern California car owners are chosen to have their junk-mobiles restored and pimped out to reflect their own tastes and interests.
Once a participant is chosen from submitted audition tapes, rapper Xzibit visits his/her home to see their car and talk to the owner. The car is then taken to a custom body shop where most of the vehicle’s components are replaced and the interior and exterior are rebuilt from scratch.
At the end of each episode, a very unique car is unveiled and returned to its owner.
