I do have to say that it look a lot better and more purposeful than the last newage widebody attempt I saw:

WRONG-WRONG-WRONG

Now thats HOT!

The blue one is a bit OTT for my taste. I'd loose the very busy taillights and headlights. I'd also remove all the graphics. But, I can appreciate the time, money and effort that went into it.

N/M I see you put normal tails on it. Looks much cleaner, huh?

Stand by for update ...

UPDATE TIME AGAIN !!

Well guy's the car has now got a few more " WRC " Style mods ( LOL & I Said there would be no more

)

The car now sports an ABW Wrc style new front bumper / Grille

Also & Work in progress ..

New wheels .. Managed to source a set of genuine wrc wheels from speedline , These are currently @ a local engineering shop having the centre hub altered as the WRC cars run a very slightly different diameter centre

ABW " Bonnet centre " Lamp pod

Oh yes baby finnally taken the plunge & had a very mahoosive lamp pod fabricated , Housing 4 very nice PIAA Floodlights

Finnally , The roof is going to have the " Tin opener " Treatment & the fitting of a functional JDM Spec C Style roof vent will be added

Hopefully if everything go's to plan this time next week the car will look somewhat better

I personally wouldnt like to drive around in that on a daily basis... but dam it is a sweet scoob.

With the WRC wheels it will look even better, looks like all you need to do is get the Engine + Drivetrain across to Prodrive now!
