What in holy hell happened to that!
Snow foam application went solid - probably mixed up bondo with snow foam in the cleaning materials box

Forgot to stop the body filler at the window line, and thought "what the hell, just keep going..."

If you look carefully you can make out the subtle and tasteful modifications the owner has lovingly applied to their pride and joy

Indeed it was a Impreza estate, with liberal usage of past tense as the owner has now chopped the rear off to make it a pickup...

I don’t think you can do that to the shell and expect to pass an MOT. Maybe he just won’t bother getting one for it

At least it's smiling.
The back end looks pretty sad...

That should be in a museum. Somewhere in France maybe. I wonder if there's a suitable place in Paris?

Is that a legit R35 under all that? I pray it's a photoshop job.

You sure that isn’t a factory standard ‘black edition’ or similar? The modifications look so seamlessly integrated I think it might be.

I’d says it’s AMG judging by the side vents... biggrin

When the Dukes of Hazzard was on Tv about 40 years ago I saw, in Ealing, a red Granada. Painted on the side, by hand, was 01, and I hate Boss Hogg. I think that person has moved on to a Black Mercedes.

I just posted this in the c124ppy number plates thread, but thought it should be in here too (sorry if you have seen it before. I've never posted in here before)

It's a 320i on 150k and both winners of it have backed out.

Looks more purposeful and cohesive than many.
Woulda looked 25% better in a tasteful BMW colour though.

From the front it does look ok, but the whole 4-door saloon thing really doesn't work out. Like many of the better-executed efforts on this thread though, it's really undermined by knowing that when you pull up at the lights in it it's a well-worn 320i.

funny thing is I like that colour. And in any case it looks better than BMW's own 3-series effort
