custom AWD impala

I'm looking for a reputable place to have a custom car modifation done to my 03' impala. I want to build a sleeper out of it and show these ricers what a classic family car can do. Any help would be appreciated.

custom cars are supposed to have bigger engines than stereos, but maybe i'm old fashioned

Re: custom AWD impala

unless you have wont the lottery or are bill Gates, keep dreaming.

Many have thought about ths and looked into, a few have tried it, and it wont turn out how you want it, it will cost more than you are thinking.

People have spent upwards of around 60k just putting in a V8, that may seem steep, but with the motor, tranny and TONS, and I mean TONS of custom electronics to work with the cars computers, it will be very very expensive.

anything is possible, but unless you can drop 100K+, just think about swapping in a L67 (3.8 supercharged) and do mods to that.

Ouch, not very reassuring at all, realistic maybe but painfull none the less. If there is a ray of hope out there I hope someone here can point me towards it.

I dont mean to bust your bubble, I just dont want you to go on thinking that it will cost you 10K or something small like that.

By all means, look into it, I just dont want you to be shocked when you hear what it might cost.
