I dont think there is a prize - just ritual humiliation for who ever owns the car and doesn't know its been entered!!

Perhaps this was the inspiration:

in a body shop I saw THIS and had to take some pics

When it's finishd it's either going to be amazing, or amazingly bad. I'll try to keep an eye on it and provide some "progress" pictures

Thanks PC, I didn't realise our solvent store had been broken into

Having seen the wrecks that go into there and come out looking like new I'm going to hold my judgement on this one.

Oh, and BTW it's an adjustable spoiler, just so you know

No, it's 100% real I promise you.

What you can't really see is the gap between the new wheel arches and the original ones - he's going to need 18" wide wheels to fill the hole!

Yeah I like the Turbo 2, very rare cars. What the hell is going on with that Corsa though, don't these people realise that these spoilers are supposed to go on saloons/coupes & look hilarious when you bolt em onto the roof of a hatch.

The front looks remarkably like a Scenic 4x4 that we have at the office.


Are they going to leave the plastic on the windows so the driver can't be recognised?
