Another 'not sure whether it's good or bad' post (can we have a thread for 'not sure if good or bad'?)

It's for the Suzuki Twin Kei car in Japan, and it's just the front bumper. I suppose it depends on how much you like Pixar Cars films...

Fantastic.....should NOT be in this thread

Looks badly modified to me so should be in this thread

Look at it again and you will see.

Fitment isn't the best but its fantastic all the same.

All is forgivable, if you make that thing into a fun thing....I still say it is a great mod.

Presumably this thread will wane given the DVLA's stance regarding modified cars, both good or bad.

Unless the rules have changed again very recently that MX5 a few posts up would be fine.

My kids would have loved it.

This is very poor, a R129 supposedly dressed up to look like an SLR. It cost €18,000 too!

Wow, that's amazing. It had me fooled until I remembered that the exhaust pipes don't come out the back on a SLR!

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who didn't know it was a genuine spec, to my eyes it just looks like a wannabe with a load of random badges, still in my eyes most, not all mind but most, BMW/Audi/Merc drivers are pitiful knuckle dragging knobs who think that every road is THEIR racetrack and anybody who dares get in their way deserves to be bullied our of the way, the majority haven't figured out where the indicators are or how to use them and park like the rules most certainly do NOT apply to them!!!!

It looks like a halfords job to me as well, in a car park yesterday I was driving towards a costa drive through exit when a C63 pulled out of it coffee in hand , if I hadn't braked sharply he'd have hit me then he gave me a look like it was my fault as he drove past, unbelievable

Badly modified isn't just a modern phenomenon...

I think you will find the “n” goes Before the “t” in that sentence

They left the V4 in it!
Would have been better off with the Morris A series left in there.

[mr alan]

They can’t have left the v4 in it. As the front-end is a minor they must have put the V4 in. it seems rather bizarre. At least put in the 3 L V6

I suspect it's all V4 Capri underneath. Just Minor body panels covering the Capri floorpan and front end
