Custom Bird - what do you think about this one?

Stumbled on this. I like the way this looks like a custom C3 from the front, but not crazy about the looks of the rear wing or the rear side quarters and how they make the rear tires look small. A low 2 tiered rear spoiler or enlarged '82 Vette styled lip rear spoiler would probably look better. And nothing done to the rear bumper to match the front chin of the car. I'm starting to think our cars are tough to heavily customize the rear on.

Front half of the car, I 'LIKES'.

Third Gens have such nice lines as designed. I'll never understand why some people feel the need to hack them up.

Front end doesn't look too bad, those ugly fender flares need to go.
