It also comes with a customized Spirit of Ecstasy loaded with diamonds, obviously.

Rolls-Royce maypride itself on bespoke productsfor customers, butlike Ferrari, the brand has its limits. That won't stop rich and famous people like rapper Lil Uzi Vert from doing whatever weird customization they want in a car.

That said, Lil Uzi Vert - who has made questionable life choices such as implanting a diamond on his forehead - took delivery of a customized Rolls-Royce Cullinan dubbed Vert Edition. New Jersey automotive shop Car Effex built the Cullinan with a completely different body no owners would probably replicate.

When viewed from the side, the Cullinan resembles the silhouette of compact pickup trucks like theHyundai Santa Cruz, as the rear sections from the D-pillars were removed. Look a bit closer, and you'll notice that the headliner was also scrapped, excluding the pillars.

This means the starlight headlinerfound in Rolls-Royce carshas been completely replaced with nothing but air. But that seems to be the least of Lil Uzi Vert's concerns, as this setup looks like a perfect party car to roll off the streets. He could also use it in one of his music videos, as he is not shy about shooting scenes with cars and motorcycles.

Exterior-wise, the customized Cullinan has white paint complemented by the massive multi-spoke white wheels. It wouldn't be a Rolls-Royce without the Spirit of Ecstasy, which received extensive diamond treatment with a violet surround on the base.

While the exterior looks quirky, the interior gets a more conservative finish. It predominantly uses brown leather with a few black accents on the seats and door panels. An interesting detail is found on the headrests as the shop embedded Domo, a cartoon character.

Lil Uzi Vert has shown he is fond of animated characters. The rapper's Audi R8 was wrapped with a livery inspired by the Japanese manga seriesKimi ni Todoke, while his Bugatti Veyron gets design inspiration from the animeCowboy Bebop. Both cars were made by Car Effex as well.
