It's pretty dodgy looking, but I reckon some of those ideas could be taken and made much better...

The front indicators could look cool if only the guy had bothered to make them fit flush with the wing.
The rear lights are a great idea but it looks as though the fitting was done by a monkey - if only he'd bothered to get decent lenses, and fit them flush, and not put those silly f***ing black flame things above each one.
The kit itself isn't bad, OK the front end isn't exactly subtle but if it was fully meshed with black mesh then it would look good. Same goes for the vents in the sideskirts.

The roof spoiler, bonnet vent, vent in the front wing and the silver stripe down the side are all unforgiveable!

A) That looks appauling
B) How do you get in if 1) the car battery goes 2) the fob battery goes?

Knowing this, doesn't it make it a rather easy victim of theft?

Most common trick is to connect a 9v battery connector directly to the lock solenoid and tuck it away somewhere in a wheelarch. So if you ever want to swipe a delocked car, take a 9v battery with you and have a good look in the arches

I always thought it was only Frenchies who modified diesels

May I ask where you sourced such information? lol

he seems to have missed out on the 3 spoke alloys and the neon lights lol

Some of the stuff on that car is very good - the lights I mean - fantastic idea!!! Shame it was done w*nkly
But I think it looks ok - minus the stripe, flames, spoiler and with bigger wheels....

 

[Neofolis]

I'd be emabarrassed to drive that and I rarely get embarrassed about anything

Nice colour though.
