I was on vacation in spain last year and i ran into this stilo.... :yum: :worship:





one of the most beautiful stilo's i've ever seen......
really nice guy 2, he still wants airride(you need that over there, the roads are crap!) and lsd doors.
 
i saw some mad cars when i was in spain in May they really take modding to the extreme!

don't quite understand why you would want to make it wider though!:chin:

By that comment I take it you mean the arches cazz Well the answer is simple :idea: If you increase the track of a car the law [at least in this country] says the body must cover the wheel look carfully at the pics again and you will see the owner has fitted some very wide rubber :)
 
im sorri bu :yuck: :yuck:

The things going for it the blue is a very nice colour/tone and hes used black mesh :) ...Apart from that... well.......... what can i say, it's only my personal opinion but....

the M3 mirrors (n) (plus there chrome (n))

the arches look silly, they are out of proportion to the car and look **** (n)

Lexus lights - need i say more (n)

cheap looking graphics - or should i say go faster graphics (n)

cheap looking window wipers (at the front :yuck:) (n)

although the exhaust and rear bumper is original on a stilo and could have potential to look good without the arches (y)

oh and the black bonnet - did they run out of paint when spraying the nice blue (n) :p

But like i say that just my opinion... i do aprreciate this guys has spent alot of time, money, effort and pride in his car and i respect that its his taste, so many the beauty seen be within the eyes of the beholder (y)
 
Terrible!!! its OTT!!!!!

One of the worst Stilo's i've seen. I wouldn't swap it for mine!

I think on the 3dr styling Koarangs old Stilo and Activematts Stilo and there was a nice yellow one from a Greek member (sorry cant remember) are the best and probably just about right, not too OTT but look the part! Other than that whats wrong with them as they are?????

this ones just too crazy in my opinion of course!
 
Well, i'm gonna disagree with you all. I like it, think it looks mean and menacing!!

Loving the wide arches! (y) :slayer:


I would lose the mirrors and black bonnet though. Also would make more of the space in the rear bumper and get a nice exhaust, to fill that space a bit more.

Looks like my kit under all that flaring

I would agree with you there (y) infact it wouldnt suprise me it they used that front and built upon it giving the extra arch and frontal area :chin: Mmmm I wonder if :idea:
 
it's good that we have different tastes otherwise we'd all drive the same car!
And that would be very boring because then we wouldn't have these great discussions!! ;) :p

I once did up an enduro bike that looked out of this world, so much so nobody recognised it as an IT 250 (Yamaha). People said is was incredible and a work of art. One day I stripped it and put everything back as it was and when I stood back I thought "that's better".

Projects like this consume the builder and you always think about the next improvement when in fact the original is usually best, and therefore the very reason we bought it in the first place. Anybody remember the Jaguar advert when they butcherd it and then put it back together in it's original state?

I respect Pedro for what he has achieved but it's his car and his taste, to expect anybody else to like it isn't the point of modding it. When Fiat built the Stilo they had done all the modifying for me up front, apart from the springs.
