Maybe the swap out is a bit polarizing for some but its functional & it was cheap to do plus the owner also owns a Au as a daily too so now he's got the best of both worlds happening lol!

Nothing wrong with having a bit of fun hey!!

cheers, Maka

actually not too bad. Certainly a better silhouette than the AU itself.

Well inbreeding is quite common down there

Wouldn't say it looks great, but i guess it sorta works better than what you imagine it would if someone said I stuck an AU front end on a 200sx.
