Owner should be beaten to death with a spotlight and buried with a 1/4 panel rear vision mirror inserted in them.

Looks like he traded up from a lancer, but kept most of the ricer parts. I do believe that beauty is in the eye of the beholder though - so this guy must be blind, which begs the question: how does he have a drivers license?

id hate to imagine what has been done to the interior and engine after seeing the outside!!!!! definitly agree that owner has to be ex-ricer racer and thinks that with all the "mods" he has, it will go harder...........harder to start, harder to stop, harder to drive...need i go on? bet the poor bugger thinks that when people do a double take, they're admiring his handy "cough" work "cough cough"


*after thought* it wouldnt be someone on here would it? theres plenty of forum users that dont have pics of their cars available......perhaps too embarrased to admit their mistake of modifying too the extrem........ly ugly?

On the "car" with the blacked out handles what was he trying to achieve with the black lines on the front going up to the bonnet?

I wonder if he wanted the thing to look like it was fitted with a speed camera?
