i've been contemplating putting some REAL bullet holes in my B2 to give it that "combat tested" look. i just thought i'd see what you guys think.

I recommend a 12ga sabot through the bed and some nines through the door. Makes it look totally awesome. DO IT!!!

It does look good with or without, but it's yours to do with what you like. Sheet metal is hard to find though... If you want a combat tested vehicle, get a decommisioned HMMWV. Gotta love the Humvees!

had that scary experiance once, in my 300zx, got lost on the wrong side of town,... thought it was my beater backfiring at fist, got home and noticed a new hole through the rear quarter panel right under the hatch, made me glad none of them "thug life" idiots ever bother to go to the range

If things go South in the coming months/years due to fuel shortages, I'd consider putting armor plating on the truck...and then testing it...

Maybe some bullet-proof glass...tinted, of course...

why not get the bullet hole stickers first and see what it looks like. from a distance it will look good and you will have the benefit of no water leakage

@BRUTUS_T_HOG Not in AZ anyway. We have a few of the decommissioned 12V HMMWV's runnin' around that civvies bought once the border patrol started using suburbans and we've got a few that are Marine issue decommissioned with the stack exhaust and snorkel.

If they were decommissioned before a certain year they are legal to have. Any humvee sold to civilians after that year has to go through a body shredder before you can take it home.

I want one so bad though. I have a friend at home who drove one to school
