Re: Nice body kit

There are things I like and things I don't like about it. I'm not feeling the nose to much, but I do like the tail.

Re: Nice body kit

I'm not a fan of body kits on our cars but that is one of the better ones.
The back view is kinda cool, I like the new bow tie but in the side shot the rear looks like it wearing a diaper.

Re: Nice body kit

the front would probably look better if the pockets were painted black

It's a sheiks car built with oil money, i wouldn't be surprised if it had a V12 in it. Maybe even out of the Ferrari he got tired of.

Re: Nice body kit

I've seen this car posted somewhere on here before. It is not in the states if I remember correctly. Its not really my style, but I do respect the work put into it and a clean job.

Re: Nice body kit

I think it is the best body kit I have seen but I still dont like it all that much. The front is interesting but the back has had way too much work done to it, almost more of a kit car at that point then a body kit! interesting find!

Re: Nice body kit

I only like the head lights on it.Yeah big wheels and rear drums makes me laugh everytime i see it.I laugh harder when they paint the drums to match the calipers.

Re: Nice body kit

I kinda like it! You do have to respect the effort. Until I saw the interior ... wow what a mess. There is such a thing as too much cheaply painted red plastic.

Re: Nice body kit

I can tell you this - I like the kit...

I'm thinking that the designer was the same one who made a few C5 kits that Lingenfelter used to sell - there is a silver C5 for sale now - take a look.

I'm really interesting in seeing an engine pic. I would be surprised if there is an actual V12 in there - which would probably be out of a Lambo.

Re: Nice body kit

too over the top for me, but that being said i think it's great to see anyone outside of the u.s. putting that much into an american musclecar. just nice to see we're not the only ones who enjoy these cars.
