I think I just threw up in my mouth, a little.

Seriously, it's a little reminiscent of the car and bike customizing culture of SoCal in the sixties. Many are preening, like bird in mating season, quite a few are mere trend followers, and the rare gem will come up with something great.

And I thought the front splitter on the Tamora was a bit low...

I had one way, way back - it was a 240Z with a few tweaks and they called them Samurai!!!!!!
By the way that car would probably rip it's self to pieces if you tried any serious drifting! One of my sons is a pretty good drifter and we competed at Santa Pod a couple of years ago in a Nissan S car with the very low splitters etc and we had the lot both front and rear ripped off within 10 minutes - ouch!! Mind you they were only cheap ones that we used for photos on the track. The expensive ones are always taken off before any competition.
Cheers
