Although the title originally meant “convertible,” the absence of a canvas roof means that this vehicle is no longer a convertible. We, along with the rest of the Forgiato Designs fandom, have looked everywhere for it. Anyway, let’s go right at the beginning.
You’d have to be living under a rock to have missed the meteoric rise in popularity of luxury SUVs like the Aston Martin DBX, BMW XM, Bentley Bentayga, Lamborghini Urus S and Performante, Ferrari Purosangue, and Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge. For those who aren’t familiar, these vehicles are huge, outlandish, terrible gas guzzlers that are universally adored.
Most of them have been enthusiastically received by the aftermarket because of the possibilities for outlandish modification and individualization construction projects. And you don’t have to take our word for it; we’ll even provide you a very convincing illustration. Forgiato Designs, located in Los Angeles, California, is a forged wheel expert who knows how to add a dash of outrageousness to a pot of aftermarket greatness. In this case, they have added a set of enormous wire-style forged wheels to a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, making it look like a classic chariot.
It’s hard to focus on the massive Forgis when you consider that CarEffex out of Sewell, New Jersey, is undertaking a project that is either mad or absurd. The company’s expertise in customizing vehicles, planes, and watercraft is clear. Unfortunately, it was for a one-off commission from rapper Lil Uzi Vert, not for the sake of mere ego. Symere Bysil Woods, a singer-songwriter who grew up in the city of Philadelphia, asked for a special Cullinan Black Badge to wear outside of his professional life.
Not (only) because the driver has a swagger worthy of a high-rise, the car has an audio system that would make a musician jealous, and the Spirit of Ecstasy statue is dressed in what seem to be Swarowskys from head to toe with wings. And not only because of the ‘Plum Crazy’ details or the fact that this construction seems like a toy or a drawing from certain angles; it’s because we’re dealing with a chopped, roofless Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge ‘Vert. Should we instead call it a “white and tan Landaulet”?
