That poor soul can't be too poor. I know he's got at least $150 to his name... for selling the springs out from under his ride!!!

i have a feeling that body is just a shell sitting on the ground. I wouldn't be suprised if it weren't even attached to the wheels.
but you gotta admit... those are some pretty sweet strakes!!!

I like the fenders and the sideskirt kinda of flowing more together.

Glad they kept the hood the same with no extra vents, least it looks like it in that photo.

Love the metal look.

But the front, the spoiler, and the slammed look is meh.

i have a feeling that its got air bags, so it is pnumatically height adjustable, and is only slammed when its on a show room floor. that said, slammed cars don't look good. but what do i know

There's no way that car is connected to those wheels. It's just sitting on the ground.

If they wanted to create something "different," then mission accomplished. If they wanted to create something that when saw people said "dayum, I wish mine looked like that!" then "insert 25 cents and please try again."

that car could very easily still have a suspension on it and still have that stance. Reworking the inner fenders, getting the correct offset wheel, and having fully adjustable suspension could have any car planted on the pavement no problem, especially one that has a kit as that gives you another 1-2 inches of lost ground clearance making it that much easier. There's unibody constructed cars all over the show circuit tucking tire and sitting "frame" on the ground, (some of which are channeled and laying rocker as well ) it can be done to anything, even golf carts

The police lights are awesome! Do you know how much fun (and trouble) you could have with a set of those!

But of course they would have to be dettachable.
