The wing has a wing on it.
What purpose do the vents next to the rear lights have? I can only think brakes? confused

Bodge over the fact that when they created the wider wheelarches they didn't take into account the fact they couldn't be bothered to shift / alter the position of the rear light cluster to suit...

Or to vent the air-pressure that builds up under the arch which cause lift and drag. Kind of like a pikey version of the wing ducts you get on a Group C car.

I'd go with your explanation though.

Or they just made the kit to "look nice" and put vents in it for added visual effect.

I think it looks awful.

Very interested to hear opinions regarding the wheels and the 5 stud conversion. I always wanted BBS CH on my EsCos, but these were 5 stud only, and the Cossie was always just regular Ford 4 Stud. Has anyone seen this conversion before, or any idea how it is done.

They look good on that one but without the meaty brakes behind them they would probably look a bit stupid.

The conversion will depend on how well it's been modified, you can just use spacers like these but it may have new parts on the end of the strut.

Horrific, yet strangely compelling.

Truly impressive level of finish.

People should be shot for doing that to a Rolls Royce.

Actually Rod Millen. Foose did have a little to do with it, but it was actually Millen doing this as a special for Lexus for the SEMA show.
